A thirty two page catalogue with a sixteen page liftout catalogue that doesn’t lift out bound inside.
Stuff that looks interesting that I don’t own:
George Beverly Shea: Tell Me The Story (page 1) An insight into the life of a man who has spent a lifetime intimately involved in the great evangelistic work of the 20th century.
The Man From Little River. (page 4) Reviewed in this month’s Presbyterian Pulse, this biography of Little River Band bass player George McArdle received a positive recommendation.
Big Truths For Young Hearts. (page 5) A guide for parents to teach the essentials of Christian theology to children aged 6-14. A great idea.
Life of Jesus (page 11) DVD and study guide by John Dickson. Dickson’s name is good enough for me. This would be appropriate for any group.
Christmas Cards (pages 26-27) Not a recommendation as such, I just can’t believe Christmas is approaching.
Stuff I do own:
My Seventh Monsoon. (page 15) Naomi Reed’s sequel to this book, No Ordinary View, won the 2009 Australian Christian Book of the Year. I think My Seventh Monsoon is better.
Stuff that seems odd to me:
AD Chronicles #9 Ninth Witness (page 23) Apparently there are ten books in this series which seems a fictionalised account of Jesus’ life.
In addition to the God’s Little Princess Devotional Bible, there’s God’s Mighty Warrior Devotional Bible. These are aimed at ages 4-7. Maybe Bruce Ware’s (no relation) book above is a wiser investment.
There wasn’t really anything compelling in the music and DVD liftout. The new stuff didn’t look that interesting and the older stuff wasn’t cheap enough (yet).
Sometime soon there’ll be a 20% off sale. I’ve probably got enough stuff in the shopping cart. Probably.
