Christian Heroines Just like You (Catherine Mackenzie)
$12.50$13.99
Imagine that you’re a slave girl in first-century Rome; or picture yourself among the sights and sounds of the Coliseum, with the approach of lions! How about the dark, foreboding atmosphere of a Spanish inquisition courtroom. What would it have been like to be a servant girl in the 1500’s, accused of heresy and sentenced to death?
These types of situations were not only faced by Christian women in past history, but still are today. Women young and old face persecution across our world for following Christ, reading a Bible, attending a church, worshiping the one true God. They are Christian heroines. With the joy of the Lord as your strength, you can be a heroine in your own time and era.
Could future generations learn about the power of true Christianity in women’s hearts, as you join the ranks of Christian heroines? Written for girls 9-12 to read, and great to read aloud to children 7 and 8. Just look at this list of the lives of girls included in this book!

Radiant: Fifty Remarkable Women in Church History (Richard Hannula)
$16.29Radiant records the triumph of the gospel as Christian women faced kings and governors, soldiers and wild beasts, Japanese guards and Muslim raiders, fire, exile, the chopping block, Nazis, cannibals, riots and more.
“Look to heaven and forsake the world” has been their cry for 2,000 years. But being “spiritually minded” didn’t make these women soft or weak — it made them invincible!
From South America to Europe, from China to Africa to the Wild West, in prisons and in throne rooms, the Christian heroines of Radiant have left a stunning legacy. These short and moving biographies for young people introduce the reader to 50 often unfamiliar champions of the faith.
