What Should I Do? The True Story of Martin Luther and the Reformation
$6.75What would you do if you were hungry and needed your supper? Would you stand outside someone’s door and sing for it? At the boarding school in Eisenach, Martin and his friends had to sing for their supper, as well as working out ways to get some tasty food before bedtime.

Martin thought that he had to pray for hours on end, eat very little, work very hard and study a great many good books in order to have his sins forgiven. However, as he began to read God’s Word for himself he discovered that the answer was not in doing these things, but by putting his trust in the Lord Jesus Christ.
A wonderful introduction to the life of Martin Luther for children 4 to 12 years of age.

My Dear Erasmus: The Forgotten Reformer (David Bentley-Taylor)
$9.50Born in 1469, Erasmus was to many of his contemporaries the greatest scholar alive: a virtual modern Socrates, whose learning and wisdom had not been equaled for a thousand years. His collected works come to 86 large volumes, and we owe a massive amount of our ability to read various worthy works in our English tongue, to the work of Erasmus. Yet history has not been kind to this man.
Despite his phenomenal achievements, he is largely forgotten, eclipsed by the reformation work of Luther and Calvin. Still, those men knew that Erasmus’ influence was a preface which contributed powerfully to the Great Reformation. Finally, a British scholar has given us a long-overlooked glance at the man whose impact on history has been vastly underestimated.
