Across the noise of modern life, an earnest 17th-century voice still speaks with clarity, tenderness and steel. A father speaks across centuries.In Advice of William Penn to His Children, the celebrated Quaker statesman and founder of Pennsylvania offers a concise Christian conduct manual shaped by the quiet fire of early Quaker literature. Addressing the civil and religious conduct of his sons and daughters, Penn distils a lifetime of experience into plain, searching counsel on piety, work, speech, wealth, authority, and the ordering of the heart before God. This spiritual advice book is both moral guidance for children and a searching mirror for parents, rich in Christian character formation and rooted in 17th century Christian ethics rather than passing fashion.Thoughtful Christian families and homeschool character education will recognise here a Christian parenting resource: warm, uncompromising, devotional and practical. As a Quaker devotional classic standing alongside George Fox Quaker writings and other Puritan and Quaker classics, it speaks to readers who cherish simplicity, integrity and peace, whether exploring historic faith or curating a serious library of Christian thought. Republished by Alpha Editions in a careful modern edition, this volume preserves the spirit of the original while making it effortless to enjoy today - a heritage title prepared for readers and collectors alike. Ideal for personal meditation, family reading, or as a gift to young adults starting life, Advice of William Penn to His Children remains a gracious companion for anyone seeking ordered civil and religious conduct in a restless age.

  • Inevitable & Imminent
    Hugh Wesley Carrington
    We’ve been duped into removing prayer from the center of our churches and have placed it on the periphery or semi-periphery.  What we’re witnessing today in our churches, and in society at large, is that legacy of prayerlessness.  Church leadership may be hesitant and embarrassed to admit it, but there is a direct correlation between our spiritual weakness and our lack of corpo...

In this heart-tugging monograph, Dr. Davis McGuirt draws from both his training in theology and the personal agony of watching his father die from cancer to provide a variety of biblical reasons for why we get sick. We are also remin...
