How to Be a Bible Princess (Catherine Mackenzie)
If you were a princess you’d have the best wardrobe in the world with new dresses in it every day – and a tiara to match. But is that all there is to being a princess? And what does it mean to be a Bible princess?
Abigail, Jehosheba, Esther and The Queen of Sheba were women who honored God. They were also royalty! Pharaoh’s daughter and Michal were princesses who showed bravery, but did they follow God? Jezebel and Herodias’ Daughter are two royal women who did not love God.
All these women are in the Bible and all can teach us, in their own way, how to be a Bible princess, a daughter of the King of kings, women and girls of righteousness.

Thomas Cranmer: The King’s Ambassador (David Luckman)
Too often, we want our heroes to have no faults. We want them to do the right thing, standing tall, with no stain on their life or character. But everyone makes mistakes. The life of Thomas Cranmer shows that God uses failures in his church for his own glory.
He moved amongst Kings and Queens, influencing the throne of England and the center of national power. But he lived at a time when the power of the monarch was absolute and sometimes the decisions you made were a matter of life and death.
Thomas Cranmer’s life is perhaps best known for a decision he made that he later regretted and deeply repented of.

Around the Wicket Gate (Charles Spurgeon)
The greatest of all tragedies must be that of the person who dies just outside the gate of life. They are standing, as it were, just outside the Wicket gate to the church grounds – seeing the beauty of the building, knowing the people going in – but not stepping over the threshold themselves.Almost saved but altogether lost.
This is a book of immeasurable value to those who have some knowledge of the Christian Faith but who are resisting God’s call to commit their lives to him. No Christian should be without a copy, to either lend or give away to a friend or acquaintance who may be lingering at the gate.
Around the Wicket Gate is written in Spurgeon’s unique style – sharp, penetrating, and easily readable. One of the most quoted preachers of modern times, his sermons have proved to be a blessing to millions. For someone thinking about Christianity, who has yet to accept Christ as their Savior, reading this book could be the most important step they ever take.
