Pilgrim’s Progress 2: Christiana’s Story
John Bunyan certainly authored the most influential book in the English language (other than the King James Bible) but The Pilgrim’s Progress is so much more than that. It was written in two parts. The 1st (and most famous) part involves Pilgrim leaving his wife and children and risking everything to get to the heavenly city.
The 2nd part, contained in this volume, tells the story of how Pilgrim’s wife and children follow him to reach the same destination. Bunyan wants his reader to travel through this book as an adventure through the Christian life – retold in words and pictures. Though not as well-known as The Pilgrim’s Progress, this sequel has an equal place in the hearts of those that know of it.
If you’ve read The Pilgrim’s Progress but not Christiana’s story yet, then get ready to enjoy a new set of challenges to overcome as Christian’s wife and children make their way to the heavenly city. Yet again Bunyan’s imaginative text brings out practical and necessary lessons that every believer needs to know.
Additional features and study sections have been included to help today’s generation to understand the book. These will help you to get behind some of the characters and places described.

The Two Bears (J. C. Ryle)
Many Christian parents wish their children could sit under the weekly ministry of a pastor as faithful to the Word of God as J.C. Ryle. This devout minister was one of the most beloved figures of 19th-century England, and never was there a clearer or more gifted communicator of the truths of the Bible. Ryle used to bring an occasional sermon just for the little children of his church.
This is a collection of those sermons – delivered with an ease of style, so that the message still can’t be missed as your children read them today. Simple, but never shallow, Ryle takes a child by the hand and guides him into deep and great truths in ways that few adults know how to do today.

The World Created, Fallen, Redeemed, and Restored has been written so that children might know and embrace these life-transforming truths of the Gospel.

The Lightlings (R. C. Sproul)
Dr. R.C. Sproul weaves an allegorical tale that captures the essence of the biblical story of redemption in a manner that will fascinate and delight children. A race of tiny beings known as “lightlings” are a picture of humanity, as they pass through all the stages of the biblical drama – creation, fall, and redemption. In the end, children will understand why they need never fear the darkness, and also, strangely, why some people fear light more than they fear darkness!
The Lightlings is an excellent introduction to the key themes of Scripture about the holiness of God and the damage sin does. Richly detailed illustrations by Justin Gerard will grip your child’s interest, and discussion questions with Scripture references in the back of the book help parents guide children into the deeper meaning of the story.
