2026/10/02
In The Temptation of Our Lord (1873), Norman Macleod explores the conflict between the sinless Savior and the enemy of our souls.

What is Faith? - C.H. Spurgeon, D.L. Moody & Others (Audiobook)
2026/09/29
In What Is Faith?, C. H. Spurgeon, D. L. Moody, and other Christian teachers explain the difference between merely believing facts about Jesus and personally trusting Him for salvation. Through Scripture, everyday examples, and memorable illustrations, they direct readers away from confidence in themselves and toward the sufficiency of Christ. Faith is not a work that earns God’s favor; it is the means by which we receive what Christ alone provides.

What remains when the worst has happened and the strength to go on seems gone? In When the Worst Comes to the Worst, W. Robertson Nicoll speaks to those facing bereavement, financial ruin, shame, and overwhelming sorrow. Without minimizing suffering, he points to the unfailing love of God, the grace that sustains us when our strength is exhausted, and the presence of Christ even when He cannot be felt. Its hope rests not in recovering every earthly loss, but in Christ—and reaches beyond the grave.

To What Purpose? Biography of Emil Fischbacher, Missionary to China
2026/09/07
Sixteen months after arriving in China, Dr. Emil Fischbacher was dead, his life apparently cut short just as it began.
Yet the story that follows is anything but wasted.
From the chaos of wartime China to a perilous motor journey across the Gobi Desert toward Chinese Turkestan, Fischbacher’s brief course on the mission field is marked by courage, prayer, and costly love. Through letters and first-hand accounts, you will meet a young physician whose ambitions were surrendered, whose comforts were refused, and whose days were poured out for souls.
His final months in the distant outpost of Tihwa brought crushing medical need, impossible demands, and relentless labor, until he collapsed and, within days, went home to be with the Lord.
Mark 14:4 asks whether such a life is waste. Christ’s answer is clear. Faithfulness to Him is never wasted.
