Historical Chronicles Press
In the Civil War Battle of Shiloh, two soldiers are among the many thousands wounded or killed. One is Stanley, a Yankee, shot, his leg broken. The other is a Confederate, mortally wounded, the son of a local Christian family. Stanley tells Davina, the Confederate’s mother, where her son is?on the condition that she will nurse him back to health. In spite of her anger that a Yankee should demand this of her, she agrees. Before her son dies, he urges his mother to take care of the Union soldier as if he were her own son.
Davina’s family is outraged that the soldier whose army killed their brother is being allowed to recover in their home. But her youngest son, Willy, who is blind, befriends Stanley. Eventually her teenaged daughter, Anna, and Stanley fall in love. But the oldest remaining son, Luke, resists Stanley with all his heart. Stanley befriends a slave family, the Jacksons, and they lead him to faith in Christ. But Luke’s bitterness grows, and after wounding Stanley, he betrays him to a slave trader. Can Stanley escape and remain with the family he has come to love?
Until Shiloh Comes is a story of love?love between Stanley and Anna, and love among the members of the two families on the farm, one white, one black. It is a story of honor and loyalty. It is a story of personal choices and their consequences. And once you have begun this new novel, you won’t be able to put it down.

Abolition Of Man
$17.99In this graceful work, C. S. Lewis reflects on society and nature and the challenges of how best to educate our children. He eloquently argues that we need as a society to underpin reading and writing with lessons on morality and in the process both educate and re-educate ourselves. In the words of Walter Hooper, “If someone were to come to me and say that, with the exception of the Bible, everyone on earth was going to be required to read one and the same book, and then ask what it should be, I would with no hesitation say The Abolition of Man. It is the most perfectly reasoned defense of Natural Law (Morality) I have ever seen, or believe to exist. If any book is able to save us from future excesses of folly and evil, it is this book.” This beautiful paperback edition is sure to attract new readers to this classic book.

God Of All Things
$19.99Abstract theology is overrated. In the contemporary West, we’re desperately in need of rediscovering God through ordinary, physical things we see in the world around us.
Jesus did it all the time. He mentioned a lily, sparrow, sheep, coin, fish, harvest, banquet, lamp, stone, seed, and vineyard to teach about the kingdom of God. In the Old Testament, too, God repeatedly describes himself and his saving work in relation to physical things such as a rock, horn, eagle, shelter, cedar, lion, shield, wave, ox, and so on. “Ask the beasts, and they will teach you; the birds of the heavens, and they will tell you; or the bushes of the earth, and they will teach you” (Job 12:7-8).
In God of All Things, pastor and author Andrew Wilson explores glimpses of the sacred in created things, finding in them illustrations of the character and gospel of God. As humans, we encounter glory through stars and awe through storms. We learn about humanity through dust and about Jesus’s death on our behalf through trees and bread and wine. Ultimately, we meet God in his creation. It is a gallery full of sketches, paintings, and portraits revealing our Maker and Savior.
Wilson presents a variety of created marvels–from figs and galaxies to viruses, pigs, and honey–that reveal the gospel in everyday life and fuel worship and joy in God.
