Books That Nourish

* A slave-trader-turned-abolitionist becomes a hymn writer. A church father is martyred for teaching about Christ's incarnation. A priest is captured by pirates---and then baptizes thousands of pagans. Show your youngsters that church history is anything but boring with this heroes-of-the-faith parade through the 26 letters of the alphabet! 32 pages, 9" x 12" whimsically illustrated hardcover from Crossway.

One of the bright lights in Christian writing is Stephen Nichols.  He is easy to understand and yet communicates history faithfully.  Highly recommended.
