Book Recommendations

I have not read all of these books, so please read at your own discretion.

If you order a book by linking from this website, a small portion of the proceeds will go toward maintaining this website or towards other ministries that are featured on this website.

Also, Amazon.com is not always the cheapest way to go for ordering books, though some times it is. Ebay’s Half.com or Alibris.com also carry used and new books.

    I just came across your website on Christian women and the abundance of information you are accumulating. You might be interested in the book recently published by Christian Focus:
    “Feminine Threads: Women in the Tapestry of Christian History”, which is a history of women in Christianity.

      Sister,
      I looked up this book. The content seems to be on a lot of what I am seeking to put on this website, so I did order it. Thank you for the recommendation! Bless you.
