"This is a book about Heaven,” says Jayber Crow, “but I must say too that . . . I have wondered sometimes if it would not finally turn out to be a book about Hell.” It is 1932 and he has returned to his native Port William to become the town's barber. Orphaned at age ten, Jayber Crow’s acquaintance with loneliness and want have made him a patient observer of the human animal, in both its goodness and frailty. He began his search as a "pre-ministerial student" at Pigeonville College. There, freedom met with new burdens and a young man needed more than a mirror to find himself. But the beginning of that finding was a short conversation with "Old Grit," his profound professor of New Testament Greek. "You have been given questions to which you cannot be given answers. You will have to live them out―perhaps a little at a time." "And how long is that going to take?" "I don't know. As long as you live, perhaps." "That could be a long time." "I will tell you a further mystery," he said. "It may take longer." Wendell Berry’s clear-sighted depiction of humanity’s gifts―love and loss, joy and despair―is seen though his intimate knowledge of the Port William Membership.Jayber Crow

A Popular Account of the Life and Times of John Calvin The publishing of this book is a direct fruit of the reading and publishing of Under Calvin’s Spell by Deborah Alcock which is a great novel and gives a very good description of life in and around Geneva. However it tells little about Calvin himself. As a result I read Penning’s book and was quickly convinced that both books should be published as companion editions, Alcock’s book being the introduction and Penning’s book the “full” story. Also today the world needs to know it’s most important historical facts and since upon the mouth of two witnesses the truth of a matter is to be established we send out in these two books the true story of John Calvin.John Calvin, Genius of Geneva

The Puritan poet John Milton is most famous for his massive theological epic Paradise Lost. He was also known as perhaps the greatest genius of the English Renaissance—possibly the best-educated man of his day—and also a major theorist of classical learning for Christians. The man who wrote the seminal words “The end then of Learning is to repair the ruines of our first Parents by regaining to know God aright, and out of that knowledge to love him, to imitate him, to be like him . . .” (Of Education, 1644) argues across all his voluminous writings that the purpose of education is soul work for virtue as opposed to information gathering for profit.John Milton: Classical Learning and the Progress of Virtue

Illustrated by: Hattie Longstreet PriceJudith Lankester, 15 years old, and raised in the luxury of her grandmother’s Virginia plantation, has made the arduous journey with her widowed mother and her seven sisters to the home of her grandparents in Indiana. Though her mother, Charity, had married away from the Quaker lifestyle, she had always maintained her faith and convictions. After her husband’s death, she freed his slaves, settled them on their own land and used the last of the family’s resources to travel to Indiana. Welcomed in Grandfather Halloway’s home, Charity hopes to set up her loom and begin weaving cloth to sell. The older girls—all except for Judith—also wish to help. The rawness of the pioneer dwellings and way of life offend Judith’s love of beauty and refinement. She wants to return to the silk and elegance of her grandmother’s home. Except for her gift with young children and skill in fine sewing, she has nothing to contribute to their new way of life. At Grandfather Halloway’s suggestion, she goes to live with the Huff family to help out, but also to learn practical household skills. It is in this kindly crucible that Judith must come to terms with herself, with her family’s Quaker faith and convictions—especially on the subject of slavery—and of where, and with whom, she will spend her future years. This warm, believable tale about the meaning of freedom and its responsibility is vividly set against the background of social and industrial change in the 1840’s—in the period leading up to the American Civil War.Judith Lankester
