Start off 2009 in the best way possible with the acclaimed second edition of “The Christian Almanac” – including a day-by-day recounting of the significant moments of Christian and Western history.
This book makes a great Christmas gift for any believer – especially homeschooling families.
Each day of the calendar year receives a two-page treatment in “The Christian Almanac,” beginning with an essay about a significant event that took place on that day.
The entry for each day also includes a list of the most significant events in history that occurred on that day: birthdays, battles, political events, deaths, notable anniversaries and key moments in Christian history over the last two thousand years.
Each day also contains suggested Scripture reading and actions or suggestions that may include music to appreciate, books to read, events to celebrate, or service to render. For instance, on November 30 the reader is encouraged to read a chapter of Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s “Life Together,” his powerful vision of faith in the real world.
Whether a reader is interested in browsing or in detailed study, “The Christian Almanac” is an informative and entertaining book for the home, classroom or reference shelf.
“Every day is an anniversary,” says the book, by George Grant and Gregory Wilbur. “History is so rich that not a single day of the year fails to offer great lessons in heroism and ignominy, brilliance and foolishness, inspiration and admonition. Not a single date fails to point toward the remarkable cultural and spiritual legacy that Christianity has provided to Western civilization.”
