It wasn't until the last few years of his life that he became a reformer. He fought for truth and righteousness with his mind and pen, he fought for lost souls to hear the good news of Jesus Christ, and at the age of 47, as an army chaplain, he was killed on the battlefield. The Shepherd Warrior, Ulrich Zwingli, fought the good fight. With his last strength he voiced his victory: "They can kill the body but not the soul!" Members Reviews: A Little Known Man Who Fought For Christ To Be Known Ulrich Zwingli. Perhaps you have heard of him. I certainly had not so I was eager to learn more about this 1500s reformer from the Bitesize Biographies series from Evangelical Press Books. William Boekestein, the author of Ulrich Zwingli, gives the reader an in-depth look into Zwingliâs life and ministry. His ministry would begin in 1506 at the Catholic Church of Glarus in Switzerland. His religious education was lacking but upon this position he began to study the languages and was greatly influenced by Erasmus who helped him understand the sufficiency of Christ. In 1518 he would become the pastor of the Great Minister Church of Zurich even after confessing to sexual improprieties. This led him to appeal four years later to the bishop of Constance for permission for priests to marry but he would have no success. He married Anna Reinhart in 1524 and continued his pastoral position. Zwingli was a defender of the evangelical church against the criticisms of the Roman Church. Catholicism was being purged in Zurich with Zwingli in the lead. After leading reforms in education, sacraments and morals the Zurich church broke with Rome in 1525. Zwingli would come against some of the beliefs of the Anabaptists and Martin Luther. In 1531 the Catholic states would engage in war against Zurich. Over 500 Zurich men died in just a few hours. Twenty-five pastors were selectively killed as heretics. Zwingli was caring for a wounded comrade when he was struck in the head by an enemyâs stone. His last words were: âWhat matters this misfortune? They may kill the body, but they cannot kill the soul.â There is much more to learn of Zwingli in this well documented account of his life. This book gives us insight into a little known man who fought for Christ to be known. Good intro to Zwingli! Biographies are useful in that they help us know the struggles and triumphs of people from different times and backgrounds. We soon realize that we are not alone in this fight called life. We of course know that God is with us. But we also find out that we are surrounded by a cloud of witnesses. No time in history saw more upheaval than the Reformation. I have read scores of books on Luther and Calvin. But I had never read a book on Zwingli until I read William Boekesteinâs offering in the Bitesize Biographies series by EP Books. In his book, Boekestein shows Zwingli to be a man committed to the church and to rightly dividing the Word of God. He was a man who longed to see a pure church. This he had in common with the other Reformers. But just like them, he discovered that reform would forever change the church as he knew it. Boekestein skillfully shows the reader Zwingliâs strengths and weaknesses. As the book progresses, the reader also sees the sanctification and the struggles in Zwingliâs faith.

She's only gone and got married again and has flown off on honeymoon, sending Evie to stay with a godmother she's never even met in an old, creaky house in the middle of nowhere. It is all monumentally unfair. But on the first night, Evie sees a strange, ghostly figure at the window. Spooked, she flees from the room, feeling oddly disembodied as she does so. Out in the corridor, it's 1814, and Evie finds herself dressed as a housemaid. She's certain she's gone back in time for a reason. A terrible injustice needs to be fixed. But there's a housekeeper barking orders and a bad-tempered master to avoid, and the chamber pots won't empty themselves. It's going to take all Evie's cunning to fix things in the past so that nothing will break apart in the future.... Absorbing, brilliant storytelling from the Waterstones Children's Book Prize short-listed author of The Secret Hen House Theatre and The Farm Beneath the Water. Critic Reviews: "This tautly written timeslip novel begins in the present day, when Evie's mother sets off on a honeymoon with her new husband, leaving Evie in the care of an elderly godmother in a remote, old house.... Inspired by the history of a real manor house, this is an exciting drama with an engaging heroine." (The Daily Mail)

Kennedy Author: Charles River Editors Narrator: Bill Hare Format: Unabridged Length: 23 mins Language: English Release date: 11-30-17 Publisher: Charles River Editors Genres: Kids, Ages 8-10 Publisher's Summary: Explains the lead-up to November 22, 1963 and why Kennedy took his fateful trip to Texas. "We never had any hope of saving his life." In Charles River Editors' History for Kids series, your children can learn about history's most important people and events in an easy, entertaining, and educational way. The concise but comprehensive book will keep your kid's attention all the way to the end. In the annals of American history, few moments have been so thoroughly seared into the nation's conscience that Americans can remember exactly where and when they heard about an earth-shattering event. In the 20th century, there was Pearl Harbor and the assassination of President John F. Kennedy. November 22, 1963 started as a typical Friday, and many Americans were unaware that President Kennedy was even heading to Dallas, Texas. John and Jackie arrived in Dallas in the morning, with Texas Governor John Connally alongside them and Vice President Lyndon B. Johnson due to arrive later to meet them there. The Kennedys and the Connallys intended to participate in public events later in the day, and Jackie and John were welcomely surprised by the warm reception they received. A public parade was hosted for the President and First Lady that afternoon, and the First Couple rode with the Connallys in an open motorcade en route to a speech Kennedy would deliver later. As they waved to the people lining the streets, around 12:30 p.m. Central Standard Time, Governor Connally's wife turned around to the first couple and said, "Mr. President, you can't say Dallas doesn't love you." Members Reviews: The death of president John f . Kennedy I like illustrations and the mystery of the book. I think that my brother Cole will like it and the illustrations
