I’ve been bargain shopping at
Christianbook.com
here are some of my finds:

These first seven books are only 75 cents a piece!

Eric Liddell: Gold Medal Missionary, Young Reader’s Christian Library Series
By Barbour Publishing

An Olympic gold medal was his prize for winning the 400-meter dash, but Eric Liddell was more concerned about another, more important run: the long distance race of the Christian life. God gave Eric Liddell great athletic talent-enough talent to set a world record at the Paris Olympics in 1924. But God also gave Liddell a great desire-to lead the people of China to faith in Jesus Christ. From the running tracks of Europe to the dusty streets of China, Liddell followed God’s call to be a missionary.

Lydia: Christian Businesswoman, Young Reader’s Christian Library Series
