$5.50Two stories in one volume: First, read of Kanousky, whose circumstances of life are tragically altered, but discovering the truth about Jesus so transforms his life, he can later look back with gladness on the changes he was forced to endure.
The second story is of David Brainerd, briefly introducing young readers to the labors of one of America’s most persevering missionaries, unstoppable in his zeal to reach the American Indian.
The grace of the Good Shepherd, Jesus Christ, and how seeks and finds His lost sheep is the theme of the first story about Kanousky, a poor Indian boy who survives a battle and ends up lost and alone. In his need, he stumbles upon some farmers who called themselves “Christians.” God’s Word makes a lasting impression on Kanousky’s life, that grows throughout his trials and adventures, and soon, “though he was lost”, he soon regards himself as “found by the Lord.”

Autobiography of George Muller, or, A Million and a Half in Answer to Prayer
$39.99We recently obtained all remaining copies of this volume!
“George Muller has for years been a pacesetter for me in prayer. His autobiography is a veritable orchard of faith-building fruit. I have found Muller’s way absolutely crucial in my own life: to be with the Lord before I am with anyone else and let Him speak to me first.”
— John PiperThis volume is the only complete edition of Mueller’s autobiography in print today, covering some of the most remarkable episodes in the history of the Christian church, as a man with a burden for spreading the gospel through orphanage work received one and a half million pounds (British) of support without ever issuing an appeal, and whose work took care of over 10,000 children.
