To the Farthest Shores has been around for a few years but is a favorite among our readers. Escape to a place by the sea where truth, love, heartache, oysters, and seafood soup combined with imperfect characters seeking perfect redemption make for a story you won’t soon forget.

From the webstore: “Briarwood member George Shamblin catalogs the comparative successes and failures of nine individuals in passing along their faith to the next generations—from the father of all failure (Adam) to the ultimate spiritual rags to riches success (Paul). So is Christianity itself in peril? ‘Of course not,’ Shamblin notes, ‘but under the right circumstances, it is endangered in any given region of the world.’”

“And this be our motto: ‘In God is our trust.’
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave.”
-Francis Scott Key
This weeks recommendation is the first book of a trilogy by C.S. Lewis. It was recommended by @queen_anneslace who says, “It is fiction and deeply theological, like the Chronicles of Narnia. You don’t have to grasp all of the theology to enjoy the book!”

We understand now more than ever that gathering is a gift! I have loved seeing how people have intentionally reached out and “gathered” via all the technological resources we have. There was a time, not far in the past, in which being confined at home would have meant absolutely no interaction with anyone outside your four walls. Wherever you are, send a text or call over to someone who might be feeling isolated or someone who is working on the “frontlines” and could use encouragement!

Christ Jesus, it is He.
These words, penned by Martin Luther nearly 500 years ago, are a beautiful reminder today that Christ is our “Helper amid the flood.”

Dear Bookstore Shoppers,
Everyone is taking special measures and precautions to help ensure the safety and health of our families, friends, and neighbors. In light of Briarwood's efforts to structure worship according to these recommended precautions, the Bookstore will be closed on Sunday, March 15th. We will resume normal hours on Monday and will post updates of any future adjustments. We wish you a blessed Lord’s Day!
Prepare your hearts for Easter!

As we prepare for the upcoming Global Missions Conference, consider having your child read a missionary biography! These are just a few of the many in stock in the store. Each one will inspire and enrich as your child learns about the sacrifices and miracles in missionary’s lives.

November is the month we take time to focus on and pray for the persecuted church. Our brothers and sisters in Christ around the world make tremendous sacrifices for the sake of the gospel. This book tells one such story.
