The Master’s Trade
By Mark Roth on December 22, 2008 at 11:19 am
With high hopes John Rittenhouses’ parents join the surge of Mennonites into the American frontier. The Master Craftsman carves out John’s faith and character in this budding wilderness where medical help is scarce and hard work, danger, and Indians are plentiful.
Will John’s sister Meg ever walk without pain? Should they stay on the homestead with warring Indians pouring over the mountains?
John worries about his wild red-haired uncle Dan when he joins the army against Grandpa’s wishes. Then Dan is captured by the Indians. Will he ever return? If he does, how will he look and act after living with the Indians so long? But most importantly, will he repent of his wicked ways and give his heart to Jesus Christ before Grandpa dies?

A Change of Allegiance
By Mark Roth on December 18, 2008 at 10:39 am
Dean Taylor and his wife Tania were both in the US Army when they realized that, as committed Christians, they had to come to grip with these questions. In a new and sincere quest for truth, they were determined to follow Jesus Christ under that banner “no compromise.” As they began to search the Scriptures and church history, they came to the startling discovery that the Christian Church originally was uniformly opposed to Christians going to war or joining the military.
In A Change of Allegiance, Dean Taylor takes the reader on a moving journey through the Scriptures, Christian history, and his own life’s story as he demonstrates the incompatibility of Christianity and war.
Ultimately, Dean Taylor challenges his readers to consider where their allegiance truly lies.

WELCOME
—————————————————————–
I last sent one of these newsletters in December of 2005! I hope this marks the turning over of a new leaf.
The main purpose of this newsletter is to provide quick monthly updates. Frankly, though I subscribe to quite a few newsletters and updates, I don’t read many of them. That’s because most of them are longer than the attention span I have to give them.
So I aim to make this one short, with links providing additional information and details for those items that might interest you.
Oh, and one other thing. I plan first to publish this one on Ampersand (our blog — http://www.anabaptistbooks.com/blog/) and subsequent issues via Yahoo! Groups.

SHIPPING
—————————————————————–
Ever since we started selling Rod & Staff curriculum, we have told customers it could take up to two weeks for such orders to ship. We cut that time in half in January 2008. So all orders from our three sites now have the same target processing time: five business days or less.
For more policy information, check out the FAQs here:

CUSTOMER QUESTIONS
—————————————————————–
Can I order CLE and Rod & Staff curriculum in a single order?
No. I wish it could be otherwise.
Do you honor publisher sales and promotions?
No. Well, not usually, anyway.

EDUSWAP
—————————————————————–
I know that’s not the fanciest forum name around. It’s not even the most imaginative. But it is short and it does work.
So stop by to buy, sell, trade, give away, or receive educational materials.

TIDBITS
—————————————————————–
Who are the people behind Anabaptist Bookstore? Well, we’re the Mark Roth family. My wife Ruby does the packaging and most of the shipping during the school year. Our two still-attending-school teenagers Michayla and Andrew do most of the summer packaging. Our early-twenty-something daughter Dora does most order filling plus a bunch of computer and email work. Dora also sews almost all the dresses that are ordered from us. Ruby “builds” the customized-to-each-customer patterns. And I? What do I do? Not enough. 🙂
The close of this year marks the end of our eleventh year in business. We are grateful for your business; by it you support our family. We have hit some rough patches this year which have affected a few of you. Thank you for your ongoing patience!
Please forward this to at least one friend. Thanks!
