From Tubemonkey's post in the audiobooks thread:
ChristianAudio Free Audiobook of the Month -- exp 30 Sep Quote:FREE - How Should We Then Live? -- Francis A Schaeffer AudioFile Earphones Award Winner As one of the foremost evangelical thinkers of the twentieth century, Francis Schaeffer long pondered the fate of declining Western culture. In this brilliant book he analyzed the reasons for modern society’s state of affairs and presented the only viable alternative: living by the Christian ethic, acceptance of God’s revelation, and total affirmation of the Bible’s morals, values, and meaning. How Should We Then Live? has become the benchmark for Christian worldview thinking today. This edition commemorates the 50th anniversary of L’Abri Fellowship, founded by Francis and Edith Schaeffer.

The Pastor's Kid: Finding Your Own Faith and Identity
by Barnabas Piper at BN.com The Only One Facing As Much Pressure As the Pastor is ... The Pastor’s Kid Dad may be following God’s call, but the Pastor’s kids (PKs) are just following mom and dad. Often to devastating results. Barnabas Piper – son of Pastor and bestselling author John Piper – has experienced the challenges of being a PK first-hand. With empathy, humor, and personal stories, he addresses the pervasive assumptions, identity issues and accelerated scrutiny PKs face. But more than just stating the problems – he shares the one thing a PK needs above all else (as do their pastor/father and church) is to live in true freedom and wholeness.

A book on this subject could easily be dry, but this one is not. The author does a great job of making the facts interesting. Also, he does not cover every pope, but mainly those that he deems more significant. He brings in concomitant history related to the pontiffs when discussing them. It's a good listen, and I'm sure it is a good read, too. |

I'm on the Bookstore's mailing list and probably have gotten an email about the sale, but I haven't been able to keep up the last few days with checking all of my emails. Who knows if I would have seen the announcement. |

Free from the author via KDP Select @ Amazon:
Doesn't She Look Natural? by Angela Hunt, 1st in the Fairlawn series of heartwarming contemporary women's/literary fiction, originally out from Tyndale House in 2007. How do you cope when God asks you to bury a dream? In this new series by best-selling author Angela Hunt, readers will meet Jennifer Graham, the no-nonsense chief of staff for a Virginia senator who quits her job after a divorce and finds herself an unemployed single mom. Forced to live with her mother until she can find work on Capitol Hill that does not involve her gregarious ex-husband, her efforts are stymied until she learns that she has inherited a funeral home in picturesque Mt. Dora. Jennifer journeys to the small Florida town with her two sons and her mother, never dreaming that within a mortuary she will discover she has inherited a rewarding career that teaches her far more about life than death. |

Here are a couple more bargains from B&H. They should be couponable at Kobo, but it looks like the coupons codes have dried up for the moment. I'll link Christianbook instead, where these (and other B&H books) are DRM-free.
Christian Doctrine by Walter T. Conner is the latest $.99 deal from B&H Academics. It's from 1937, but it's still in print and used as a textbook in theology courses at conservative seminaries. B&N Christianbook Amazon The Apologetics Study Bible is $5.99. B&N Christianbook Amazon |
