Ballantyne Christian Adventure Library by R.M. Ballantyne $220.00 | Hardcover | 2500 pages | Vision Forum OUR PRICE: $179.00 “Boys ought to be inured from childhood to trifling risks and slight dangers of every possible description, such as tumbling into ponds and off of trees, etc., in order to strengthen their nervous system.... They ought to practice leaping off heights into deep water. They ought never to hesitate to cross a stream over a narrow unsafe plank for fear…they ought never decline to climb up a tree, to pull fruit merely because there is a possibility of their falling off and breaking their necks. I firmly believe that boys were intended to encounter all kinds of risks, in order to prepare them to meet and grapple with risks and dangers incident to man’s career with cool, cautious self-possession.... —R.M. Ballantyne (1825-1894) An influential writer of boys’ literature in his generation, Ballantyne was also a devout Scottish Christian. He inspired a generation of writers to take up their pens in defense of the ideals of biblical manhood and Christian character. If your boys have enjoyed the writings of G.A. Henty, they are sure to relish Ballantyne as well. 10 volumes in the set. Normally $22 each Click for Details & Reviews Quantity:

Daniel: A Model for Young Men by William Anderson Scott $15.00 | Paperback | 340 pages | Crown Rights Book Company OUR PRICE: $12.50 Daniel's character is pre-eminently worthy of our attention. His life was not only conspicuous, but unique and difficult. A Hebrew, and yet prime minister at a heathen court which then governed the world; yet never did he fail in his duties, either as a statesman or as a true disciple of Moses. Amid all the luxury, splendor, and honors of the Babylonish court, he preserved an incorruptible integrity and spirituality of character. The length of time Daniel acted as prime minister of state is proof of the ability and fidelity with which he discharged the duties of his high station. The whole of his life presents the fearlessness of his spirit and the fervor of his heart. He ever cherished humble views of himself, but the warmest emotions of patriotism toward his country. What is more powerful than his intercessions in behalf of his suffering countrymen! What more heroic than his life-long simple obedience to and trust in his God! Scott's survey of the life of Daniel is a worthy study for young men. Suited to boys 13-17. Click for Details & Reviews Quantity:
