"Prayer, although an essential ingredient of the Christian experience, remains mysterious and foreign to many Christians. Realizing this, a well-known (but anonymous) Christian wrote this volume to teach Christians about the power available to them through prayer. According to The Kneeling Christian, all real growth in the spiritual life—all victory over temptation, all confidence and peace in the presence of difficulties and dangers, all repose of spirit in times of great disappointment of loss, all habitual communion with God—depends upon the practice of secret prayer.

"Beowulf, a masterpiece of ancient literature, reminds us of a world prior to the scientific revolution where things were dark and monsters roamed in swamps and dragons hoarded gold in mountains. Beowulf is a character to be admired yet not without caution. Timeless this oft translated piece of Old English literature will be sure to delight and teach you something just as it did the first time it was told long ago under some great lodge lit by woodfires that sought to block out some dark and cold wintry night."
