DOWNLOAD EBOOKTo Every Thing There Is a Season is a collection of original poetry that draws inspiration from Nature and Christian faith. Often these themes combine as the author reflects on the relation of Nature to its Creator or joins with Creation in praising God. The poems are divided into four sections, each dedicated to a season of the year--spring, summer, autumn, and winter. In addition to poems investigating the particular joys of the season, each section also includes poems on the Christian holidays celebrated during that season. With poems ranging from serious to humorous, challenging to delightful, this collection offers opportunities for reflection and relaxation.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe story is simple, seen through the eyes of an 11-year-old boy. As an adult he remembers the way things were back home on the farm on the west coast of Cape Breton. The time was the 1940s, but the hens and the cows and the pigs and the sheep and the horse made it seem ancient. The family of six children excitedly waits for Christmas and two-year-old Kenneth, who liked Halloween a lot, asks, “Who are you going to dress up as at Christmas? I think I’ll be a snowman.” They wait especially for their oldest brother, Neil, working on “the Lake boats” in Ontario, who sends intriguing packages of “clothes” back for Christmas. On Christmas Eve he arrives, to the delight of his young siblings, and shoes the horse before taking them by sleigh through the woods to the nearby church. The adults, including the narrator for the first time, sit up late to play the gift-wrapping role of Santa Claus. The story is simple, short and sweet, but with a foretaste of sorrow. Not a word is out of place. Matching and enhancingthe text are black and white illustrations by Peter Rankin, making this book a perfect little gift. For readers from nine to ninety-nine, our classic Christmas story by one of our greatest writers.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKWe can easily be overwhelmed by the Bible. We may try to read it, only to find ourselves stuck in a confusing book or chapter. Included in this guide are brief explanations of how the Bible came to be written and how the books were collected together and later declared to be Holy Scripture by the church.
