Christianity has been intimately connected with education since its beginning and like Martin Luther, Crossbridge Books believes in education so “that there will always be preachers, jurists, pastors, writers, physicians, schoolmasters, and the like, for we cannot do without them.”
This week's text from the word of God:
'Know that the Lord, He is God; it is He who has made us, and not we ourselves;
we are His people and the sheep of His pasture.’

101 Crafty Activities
for 3-5-year-olds
This book has more than a hundred different ideas for creative activities to do with children roughly aged between three and five years, although younger and older children can enjoy many of these open-ended activities at their own level. Most of the materials used will cost you nothing as they can be recycled from everyday household objects and supermarket supplies. For some of the activities materials can be gathered from the garden or park. All the activities have been tried and tested as evidenced by the wealth of photographs that illustrate the activities.
The perfect resource book for parents or carers of young children in home or group settings, especially when funds are limited.

Wolves of Russia
by R M Mace
An epic story of survival spanning two generations as told by the last in line of an ancient Polish noble family, based on memoirs and eye-witness accounts of true events. From the court of Imperial Russia to Foxley Manor in Herefordshire, England, the story begins with the First World War, takes the reader through the Russian Revolution, The Second World War, deportation to Siberia, escape from a gulag, enlistment in the British Eighth Army, the Italian Campaign and Monte Cassino, the operations of the UNRRA, and finally to England.
For fans of the book 'The Long Walk; The True Story of a Trek to Freedom', or fans of books about the Eastern Front of the Great War, this book will not disappoint.
There are some stories that simply have to be told; Wolves of Russia is one of those stories. The secrecy of the Stalin years and beyond have kept this story, typed laboriously on yellowing A4 sheets, tucked safely in a draw for decades until now.
You might ask how true is this story? It was true for those who lived it.

Book Reviews:
"This is a profoundly moving story of one man and his family caught up in the tumultuous events of the Revolution and War years in Europe. An epic journey fraught with violence and remarkable examples of humanity spanning a vast continent. The addition of first-hand transcripts adds another layer of historical authenticity to the work."
David Burns - Producer, Eden Films
"I was extremely impressed with this novel; it's an important accomplishment. Weaving the tale of this true story through eye-witness accounts and meticulouly detailed research to take us on a fascinating adventure through a chaotic landscape of societal upheaval, personal tragedy, and the political intrigues of war. I found myself carried along on the journey; the writing flows and is vividly descriptive which made it pretty much effortless to read in a few days. Wonderfully absorbing, and informative for history buffs."

THE GREATEST PHYSICIAN ON EARTH
YAHWEH RAPHA - I AM THE LORD WHO HEALS YOU
by Trevor Dearing (1933-2023)
This is Trevor's eighteenth and also his last book, completed just two days before he went to Glory. In this book Trevor seeks to help the reader see that the healing of individuals is only part of God's healing work, which in fact encompasses the whole life of His creation from its beginning to the time of His creation of a new heaven and a new earth. Trevor describes God's healing work as being part of His essence and nature. God's own description of Himself as Yahweh Rapha (I am the Lord your physician) reveals the purpose of His healing work - that mankind, through faith in Him, can be whole in body, mind, and spirit.
