Unlike, many other publishers of classic works, our publications are easy to read. You won't find illegible, faded, poor quality photocopies here.

We can't promise perfection, but we're sure gonna try! Our goal is to bring you high quality Christian publications at rock bottom prices. Description: Under the shadow of a great affliction we assemble in the house of God this day. The trusted colleague, who is now sole pastor, the attached elders, deacons, and members of the flock are bereaved of one whom they loved, and whose lips fed many. You meet where once you used to greet his presence and drink in his thoughts, sorrowing most of all that you shall see his face no more. The voice, which in measured accents dealt forth its solid teaching, which, trumpet-like, rang through this church in earnest warning, and which, in tones of tenderness, wooed to the ways of peace and pleasantness the old and the young who hung upon his lips, is silent. Yet I am not to-day to dwell on parting and death. His work was done, his warfare was accomplished; we will not mourn that he has laid his weapons down. The weariness of long pilgrimage weighed heavily upon him; we will not mourn that God has given him rest. Turn we rather to the life which he lived, and the work which by God’s grace he accomplished.
