A Few Favorites

I have sent so many people to Dr. Grant Horner’s Bible reading program, that I thought I should just put up the link here for you all. If you’re looking for a good daily reading program, this is my favorite. I know there are dozens of good Bible-reading systems, and really, as long as we are in the Word, that’s the real point. But the thing I like about this one is it has me reading ten chapters a day in ten different books, so I am all over the Bible all the time. Don’t be daunted by the ten chapters a day. You will be surprised how quickly you can do this once you get started.

The next favorite is Handbook to Prayer, Praying Scripture Back to God by Kenneth Boa. This little book has three months of prayers, one per day. It covers adoration, confession, renewal, petition, intercession, affirmation, thanksgiving, and a closing prayer each day. Each section is filled with Scriptures as well as different suggested subjects listed for petitions and intercessions. I have really benefited from using this daily prayer book.

My favorite devotional reading is The Loveliness of Christ by Samuel Rutherford. But I have lifted many favorite quotations out of books by Thomas Watson as well. And John Bunyan.  And Matthew Henry. And Jeremiah Burroughs. And Charles Read More

I’m very excited to plug this book: Does Christianity Squash Women? by Rebecca Jones. Given the times we live in, it’s a very relevant question, and we women need to be well versed in what the Bible teaches about all aspects of womanhood. The tempter still asks, “Did God really say….?” as he attacks the calling of women on all fronts. This book is a tremendous resource and an encouraging overview of God’s kindness to women in the Old Testament and in the New. If you ‘re looking for a book to study in a group setting, you’ll find each chapter has discussion questions included. And the good news is, you can get a copy at Canon Press.

“Christianity does not squash women. It honors them in their femaleness and hands them the great privilege of becoming a part of God’s family through the Savior whom they bring into the world.”

“They are, on the contrary, given a place of high honor in the Bible, not only in the New Testament but also in the Old Testament.“

Book Plug for Radiant

Radiant

Women in Church History

Radiant records the triumph of the gospel as faithful women through the ages have faced kings and governors, soldiers and wild beasts, Japanese guards and Muslim raiders, fire, exile, the chopping block, Nazis, cannibals, riots and more.  From South America to Europe, from China to Africa to the Wild West, in prisons and in throne rooms, the Christian heroines of Radiant have left a stunning legacy.

 

“Through these robust and hearty profiles Richard Hannula brings to life forty-six women of faith who helped shape church history. His interest is authentic, his research is solid, and his admiration is genuine.”
–Joel Belz, founder of World Magazine

“Women have made a vital contribution to the growth and progress of the Christian Church from the beginning. Hannula recognizes and celebrates that contribution and rallies the rising generation of Christian women to lives of action, vitality and faithfulness. A great read!”
–Gwen Westerlund, Christian counselor and co-author of Titus 2 Teams: A Mentoring Program for Women

“From the time of Christ’s ministry on earth until the present day, faithful women have left us a legacy of courage, sacrifice, and service in the midst of trials. In this new collection of stories, Richard Hannula has given us a rich resource of encouragement and inspiration.”
–Nancy Wilson, author of True Companion and Praise Her in the Gates
