When we are done we will update our signs!  The Missions Section has been moved over one aisle and the Spanish Section was moved over 2 aisles!  Thank you for your patience as we make these changes.

Be sure to check out the display of Pastor Brian Farone's recommended Small Group Studies for the Fall.  You will find them on the back counter.  They are available to be checked out.

We have 2 new series of books in our Juvenile Section called The Revolutionary War and Voices from the Civil War.  These books aren’t just for Home Schooled Children.  Any history enthusiast will appreciate them!

I am very excited to have this tool to communicate with the faithful readers at Grace Bible Church!  I hope you will take the time to leave a comment now and then, so I will know if anyone is reading this or not!  I’m happy to hear your suggestions and ideas.  If you would rather talk to me in person, I am usually in the library Sunday mornings during 2nd service until 12:30.

On this Blog, you will find everything from current book reviews to information on upcoming library events.  If you have children (or if you just enjoy fun music), you will be happy to know we now have a big selections of GO FISH CDs and DVDs! There is still time this summer to enjoy a family DVD like Benji, Otis & Milo or Billy, the story of Billy Graham in his younger years.

Thank you again to everyone who supported us at our book sale this summer.  We still have a few “free” books available.  Just ask one of our library assistants to help you.  See you in the library.

 

Blessings,

Lynnette Kelley

]]> Summer is Here! http://www.gracevine.com/inside-the-library/summer-is-here/ http://www.gracevine.com/inside-the-library/summer-is-here/ Tue, 13 Jul 2010 22:19:13 GMT stock_book stackSummer is here! If you have not visited our library, please come by and check it out! Summer is a time to explore some areas you might not have tackled before.

How about a biography? Of course we have great tales of famous Christians like Billy Graham, Hudson Taylor and James Elliot. But what do you know about Phil Vischer (the creator of Veggie Tales), Luci Swindoll (sister of Chuck Swindoll) or Bilquis Sheikh (a Muslim noble woman who became a Christian)?

What about you fiction readers? Everybody is reading Kingsbury, Thoene and Rivers. How about trying some different authors? Don Brown writes about Treason in The Navy Justice Series. Robert Vaughan writes about a B-17 bomber pilot in his series, A WWII Novel. If you like Civil War Fiction try reading The Wells Fargo Trail by Jim Walker.

For children we have some exciting series, including Sisters in Time (historical fiction), BloodHounds, Inc.(hilarious, action-filled mysteries) and The Men and Women of the Bible series (Esther, Paul, Daniel etc...) Plus, many, many more!
