In Peril on the Sea by Robert Bell & D Bruce Lockerbie


Read an excerpt
In Peril on the Sea is the story of missionary widow Ethel Bell and her children—Mary, 14, and Robert, 11—uprooted by the war from their West African station, find themselves on a small freighter bound for America. It is 1942. Sights and sounds of war envelop the world. And in the arena of the South Atlantic the infamous German submarine U-66 prowls the gray waters. Suddenly, on a peaceful August afternoon, a shrieking alarm pierces the stillness. Torpedoes explode. Fire engulfs the ship and within two minutes it disappears beneath the oil-slimed, shark infested waters. What follows is an almost unbelievable saga of death and despair as mother, daughter and son find themselves on an eight-by-ten foot raft along with two orphaned missionary children and fourteen male crew members. For twenty days aboard the bobbing vessel, Ethel Bell becomes pastor, peacekeeper, teacher, mediator and caregiver. But the story does not end with the surprising rescue. Years later, in a poignant moment, Robert Bell meets his "enemies" face to face. The war is over. God's love and forgiveness have triumphed.

Guide to Dinosaurs by Brian Thomas



Millions of years ago, before mankind, monstrous lizards ruled the earth and were suddenly wiped out by a huge asteroid that blackened the sky... at least that's the popular theory. Guide to Dinosaurs challenges the evolutionary model that pervades the study of dinosaurs and presents a biblically minded interpretation backed by solid science.

Dinosaurs were amazing creatures. We're learning more about them all the time, but there are still many question. How do they fit with the Bible? Are they really millions of years old? Did they live at the same time as humans? Were dinosaurs on the Ark? If so, why are they extinct today? Examine the evidence and discover that the Bible tells the real dinosaur story.
Learn all about the history of dinosaur fossils, different dinosaur types, and mankind's interaction with 'dragons' in the years following the Flood. Great for the dinosaur-lover of any age!

Guide to Creation by Institute of Creation Research

 
 
Knowing where we came from is extremely important.  If natural processes made mankind over billions of purposeless years, then our lives mean nothing, and our ideas about reality are mere chemical interactions occurring inside our brain cells.
But if God made mankind supernaturally, then each day of our lives is packed with meaning. Our Creator set each of us on the stage of an unfolding history to play our parts according to His excellent and loving purposes. And if God made humans recently, like the Bible clearly indicates, then Scripture is error-free, worthy of our complete trust, and authored by a Creator whose Word settles the matter - whatever that matter might be.
Why should we study God's creation? In short, it's because that investigation will help answer some of our most significant questions about life, the world, its origin, its purpose, and ultimately why we are here.
 
This comprehensive 120-page guide, authored by ICR scientists and scholars, is loaded with hundreds of full-color illustrations.
 
Topics include:
   • The Flood
   • The Fossil Record
   • Mount St. Helens
   • Carbon Dating
   • Problems with the "Big Bang"
   • Recent Creation of the Universe
   • Life's All-or-Nothing Design
   • Dinosaurs in Scripture
   • Myths and Fallacies
   • Genesis and the Curse
   • Design and Order in Creation
   • Humans Are Unique
