Those
of you who know us well and are familiar with our books and our aims
might like to cut to the chase and just go straight to the website to
pick up their bargain! You can do that here:
Those
of you who might like a bit of help to choose your books, you might
like to keep reading! Thank you either way, we appreciate you all :-)
All
our books are published with the aim of encouraging and inspiring young
people in their faith and showing non-church kids what they are
missing.
We've
all seen children who have grown up in church, but have grown away, and
children who are growing up not hearing the good news of Jesus.
Christmas
is a great opportunity to offer a simple, non-threatening gift to
non-church children you may not usually buy for. It's also the perfect
time to pop a Christian book in your own child's stocking, or to give
away to any child we care about. We have received so many testimonies of
how the Lord has used our books to touch children's lives – your gift
could be the best present they will receive this year :-)
So here's an offer to make it a bit more affordable for you to reach out to the children on your heart this year:
£1 off every book you buy
Friday 29th November –
Sunday 1st December
Be a part of it – your gift could change a life!
