“This is a daily devotional of astonishing scope. What you have is 366 bite-size biographical sketches of 366 Christian women. Collectively this book gives an overview of church history from NT times to the present day, through the eyes and stories of female believers. It is a staggering accomplishment and would make the kind of gift one would return to again and again for reference and pleasure.” — Evangelicals Now Magazine

Keep a Quiet Heart (Elisabeth Elliot)
$13.59For almost two decades, Elisabeth Elliot wrote a newsletter, which, in her own words, contained “not much news”, but rather, brief letters to cheer and encourage those who wanted to read her thoughts. This book is a collection of the most useful and loved articles from those years.
These 100 brief writings have become one of recent history’s most valued devotional books. Most of them focus on learning to know God. Nothing else comes close to being as important as that. She expresses that she truly believes, not a day passes that does not present us opportunity to know Him better.

Devoted: Great Men and Their Godly Moms (Tim Challies)
$10.95Be encouraged, Mom. Many have gone before you in the good work you labor at. Many of those influential Christian teachers, pastors, and evangelists we read of in the past had a faithful mother who, more than anyone else in life, made them what they are by the grace of God. Fervent in their prayers, faithful in their instruction to their child.
Devoted is eleven short chapters, each of which displays for us the example of a Christian mother who shaped her son into the godly man we know.
