21.01.2022 July Holiday Read - Book 7. Wambu Series of 3 set in native PNG. See book review of series here http://anniekateshomeschoolreviews.com//review-wambu-tril/. Conclusion of review : We highly recommend the Wambu trilogy for its exciting story, the glimpse into missionary work, and the vivid description of Papua New Guinea. Although technically the three books Wambu: The Chieftains Son, Wambu: In the Valley of Death, and Wambu: Journey to Manhood could be read independently, they are more enjoyable when read in sequence. This trilogy makes a superb family read aloud for ages 9 and up, and is inspiring to adults as well.

21.01.2022 Martin Luther’s wife was a remarkable woman who worked tirelessly to care for her husband, her children, many students and the community. Her story shows how God used her as an instrument to further His Church.

21.01.2022 A beautiful Church history resource, Reformation Heroes is a valuable introduction to important figures in the Reformation. The stories told are inspiring and encouraging - and should be remembered among us as evidences of the grace of God at work. ( quote from Godfrey, WR in Ref Heroes). Remember Reformation Day 31 Oct.

21.01.2022 Something for the July school holiday break??

19.01.2022 A man’s heart plans his way, but the Lord directs his steps ( Proverbs 16:9). The year 2020 has reminded us of this truth, but 2021 will be here soon. And we do need to make plans! Time to get a new diary or planner? Check out the range available in our store.

19.01.2022 Have you read this incredible memoir of Dr SG Hur? A minister in one of the Free Reformed Churches for many years, this quiet, unassuming, faithful Korean man touched many lives. A short read, just a little over 120 pages, it tells of his childhood as a farm village boy, the influence of his parents, his education in Korean and the sacrifices made to study in the Netherlands and lots more. A worthwhile read, with a worthy title Pilgrimage: by grace alone.

19.01.2022 At the end of this week, the last day of October, the Christian calendar marks Reformation Day. 31st Oct 1517 is the day Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses on the door of Wittenberg Church, a set of questions about the sale of indulgences and other matters of sin and repentance. Read about it in this beautifully illustrated biography for young readers by Simonetta Carr.

18.01.2022 It will soon be school holidays. This may mean rainy, blustery, cold days spent inside. What better way to enjoy this then to read a great book near the fire, snuggled under a blanket with your favourite teddy, sipping hot chocolate topped with pink and white marshmallows. What books will your children be reading? Check out the bookshop for old favorites, new series, war stories, horse stories, adventures, fantasy. #bookshop #reformed #Christian #childrensbooks

The four-volume Study Resource is a Reformed commentary on the Psalms that does two things differently than other commentaries: 1) While explaining each Psalm in its context, the Study Resource shows how all the Psalms reveal the Saviour Jesus Christ; 2) Each chapter provides rich commentary in an accessible and efficient format. In very little time, the reader can find what he/she needs. The busy adult, parent, teacher, deacon, elder, or pastor can utilize it quickly for devotional insights, teaching points, or exegetical issues by navigating through any of sixteen headings.

12.01.2022 Review of Wherever you go I want you to know by Melissa Kruger. Kids love to dream about what they might do when they grow up: jobs they might have, places they might go, people they might meet. And parents and caregivers love to encourage and support them. But for Christian parents, their greatest aspiration for their children, their dream of all dreams, is that whatever their kids do and wherever they go, they will love and follow Jesus.... As children embark on life's journey with all their potential and aspirations, express to them your biggest dream with this beautiful illustrated rhyming children's book. As well as teaching children about the only thing that really matters in life, this book also reminds parents that telling their kids about Jesus is more important than anything else. https://books.google.com.au//Wherever_You_Go_I_Want_You_to Available in store or order www.proecclesia. com.au $14.99

06.01.2022 On discovering the meaning of this verse in Romans 1:17, Martin Luther was overjoyed to know that righteousness is a gift from God in Jesus Christ. The doctrine of justification by faith alone - the foundation of the reformed faith. Read about Martin Luther, his struggles and triumphs, in the many church history books found on our shelves.

05.01.2022 Surprised by Oxford by Carolyn Weber was reviewed by Rebecca at the recent Book Review and Fellowhip morning. What she says about this book: I love this book - the writing style, the fact that its autobiographical, the humour in it. Most of all I loved reading the story of how God orchestrated so many details in Carolyns life -in the people she meets, in her conversations, in her own family members - every detail, to bring her to Him. Its simply amazing! . Copies are available now.

05.01.2022 In the past months we have been encouraged by our church leaders to reach out to the lonely, the isolated, the stuck-at-homes, the stressed and the anxious. There are many needs around us, in the church community and the wider community. These two books by Ed Welch encourage us to reach out and care for each other, but also to be able to share our own needs with others. To be needy and needed. Both supported and supporting. Easy to read, and discuss with others, pick up your copies and be encouraged! #reformed #bookshop #christian

04.01.2022 July Holiday Read - Book 7. An oldie, a moving story of unique care, love and friendship. By WG Van de Hulst. Pierre, sick and confined to bed, cannot play with other children. He must find enjoyment in what he sees outside his window: the sky above and the canal below. Pierre discovers beauty in the daily sights and sounds that enter his open window and they become his companions. One day Pierre hears strange noises coming from the canal. Young boys have come into the quie...t canal, shattering Pierre's peaceful routine. They see Pierre in his window and an unusual relationship develops between Pierre and the group of boys, as they come back again and again. During a local holiday, Pierre receives a surprise visit from his companions, and in an exuberant ceremony he is made mayor of the city. When the boys return to the canal several days later, Pierre's window is empty. Before he died, however, Pierre left a gift with his grandfather for each of his friends... What was it and why?

03.01.2022 Reformation Day today! Luther wrote many hymns to bring God’s word on the lips of His people. A mighty fortress is our God is based on Psalm 46. Music played a large part in Luther’s life and family and he worked hard to bring congregational singing back into the church. He said: Next to the Word of God, the noble art of music is the greatest treasure in the world. Listen to this famous hymn and join your voice to the choir to sing praise to Him who is Faithful . See in store for music CD’s of hymns and psalms to add to your collection. https://m.youtube.com/watch

03.01.2022 Sometimes it’s hard to choose a book for that person who doesn’t read a lot. Still Thinking by Jason Bouwman and friends is a great book to browse through, read snippets and short explanations and still get you thinking about God and His marvelous work.

03.01.2022 July Holiday read- Book 1. An old favorite! I recently reread this book that was a birthday present to me in 1981! Its still available and the cover is identical. An angry, grieving old man with secret pain; reckless boys who have heard the village gossip; but also peace, forgiveness, compassion and grace. A good book to read and then follow with a discussion on grief, pain , death, hurt, love, forgiveness, compassion and grace. What makes people behave like that? Why does a person act so angry and mean? What are they covering up? How does God work to change hearts?

03.01.2022 2021 is here soon. Pick up next year’s calendar - for yourself, for a gift, for someone overseas, as a thank you or just because the pictures are beautiful.
