Bonhoeffer's Cost of Discipleship (Shepherd's Notes. Christian Classics)
87 reviews
Greg Ligon

A manifesto of love from the beyond
Dietrich Bonhoeffer's "The Cost of Discipleship" is the kind of book so fundamental to the daily challenges of our lives as followers of Christ that one might compare it to cold water in the long, winding desert of 21st century civilization. Bonhoeffer knew that very few Christians actually knew what it meant to claim allegiance to God, or to Christian values: how unforgivingly opposed the ...

highly recommened
I highly recommend this book to those parent who want to raise thier children in a godly home. The 'heart' is so important. This is a must for learning how to discipline your children. The section on spanking does seem a bit extreme, however.

Runner's Handbook has a great plan.
I cannot imagine being a successful beginning runner without a plan like those presented in this book. I have tried running before, but with this book, I have been much more successful. It was a great find!

What are the alternatives to spanking?
I believe parents spank because they don't realize that there are other ways to gain their children's cooperation and respect. For humane, effective alternatives to spanking, I recommend "How to Talk So Kids Will Listen and Listen So Kids Will Talk." It's so easy to use--every technique is illustrated with cartoons. My mother "switched" us kids occasionally, but I sent her a copy ...

It made our Retreat a Hit!
We chose this book as a foundation for our Women's Retreat. Not only was the theme a springboard for our speakers and breakout sessions, it added inspiration for the treats and decorations. We were pampered as Princesses and we found out how much our Daddy, The King adores us! Low self-esteem is a huge problem for many women, and it was an important issue to tackle. I'm so glad we went back ...
When Sinners Say "I Do": Discovering the Power of the Gospel for Marriage

Shepherd Press, 2007
Not Your Standard Marriage Book; Maybe the Best I've Read
Dave Harvey begins the book by making sure that you understand the doctrine of sin...the root of which is that you recognize that you are a sinner. Recognizing that both members of any marriage are sinners, have always been sinners, and forever will be sinners is a key place to start. Far too often we recognize that proposition (both spouses are sinners) to be a true theoretically true statement, ...

Useful, Positive Booklet - Nothing abusive
This useful booklet gives parents helpful questions to ask their children as they encourage them to put off bad behavior and put on good behavior. Ginger encourages parents to do this gently and wisely. As she says in the introduction, "Wise words are to be spoken with a loving heart and gentle voice." There is nothing whatsoever in this helpful booklet about physical discipline of any kind. ...

Well Worth the Long Wait
Instructing a Child's Heart has been a long time coming. It was thirteen years ago that its predecessor, Shepherding a Child's Heart, was published. It was thirteen years ago that Tedd Tripp published his last book. It was no lost on me that many of the book's lessons and anecdotes now focus on the author's grandchildren. Thirteen years is a long time by any measure! Instructing a Child's ...

Definitely a Keeper!
This book is great! Some reviews have said that it promotes spanking, but the bottom line is that if you don't spank you are doing your child a disservice and that's exactly what this author is saying in her book. She doesn't say that a parent should be abusive and just spank for no reason or just make up a reason to beat their child. Rather she admonishes parents to teach the child the correct ...

Response with gratitude
I am the author of this book and just want to respond that I agree with the very critical reviewer who felt strongly that Copperplate should have been included. I wish so too. But it would need a whole other set of supplies and hand positions. Copperplate comes along much later, and is really outside the main core of the broad-pen historic hands. Maybe some day! To respond to Gary Bisaqa's ...

Theatre Teachers: This Is What You Need
This book is formatted so easily, it took me MUCH less time than I thought it would to prepare a unit on reader's theatre for my class. I used it for my high school theatre class so they wouldn't have to concentrate on large vocabularies, but rather to deliver the story in a simple, easy way. It was a HUGE success of a project and this book made it possible. It tells you how long each story ...

I loved this book!
I really enjoyed this book & it has been helpful in starting me to write NOTES. I guess I thought that you had to fill up a whole page with "something". It is a lot easier to write a short amount on some nice note paper. Not as frightening as a full size sheet of paper. I had just finished the book, when I had to write a condolence note & a welcoming note to my daughter's mother-in-law before ...

No Shame in This - Awesome Read!
After reading this book, you will simply start with asking yourself questions about your faith in Jesus Christ. This self-analysis is befitting. Do you know Jesus? Do you want to get to know Him? Fay makes it plain and simple. In the 70's people used to ask questions like; Are you saved or not? Do you want to go to hell or not? However, Fay makes the questioning aspect a bit more compassionate ...

Beautiful comfort
This easy-to-read book is excellent for people who find themselves in survival mode. The book is very portable, small enough to slip into a handbag. The illustrations display hope, safety, and love, and the words speak comfort and solace. I gave this book as a gift, and I am thoroughly impressed with it. Author, With Great Mercy.

Former shepherd adds new meaning to a familiar psalm
The 23rd. Psalm is certainly one of the most familiar passages in the Bible. Despite that fact, author W. Phillip Keller adds new depth and meaning to it as he shares his experiences as a shepherd as they relate to Psalm 23. He shows us that a good shepherd is sufficient for all of a sheep's needs if he will but follow and obey him. He describes how a shepherd sets up a cast sheep (one who has ...
