A Trinity Forum Readings Collection

Four Readings booklets on faith and courage in tough times.

This small collection focuses on faith that stands firm in the face of real trials. Understanding Wilberforce’s perseverance; seeing Lincoln’s spiritual development under pressure; tracing Bonhoeffer’s stand for truth under Nazism; experiencing a fictionalized but truthful account of reconciliation in apartheid-era South Africa—in each of these cases we can see how a robust faith can sustain us to act with integrity and courage in the midst of difficulty and confusion.

    • A Practical View of Real Christianity (Wilberforce/Stetson)
    • Abraham Lincoln: The Spiritual Growth of a Public Man (Trueblood/McDonald)
    • Who Stands Fast? (Bonhoeffer/Metaxas)
    • Cry, the Beloved Country (Paton/McDonald)

Modern man is staggering and losing his balance because he is being pelted with little pieces of alleged fact which are native to the newspapers; and, if they turn out not to be facts, that is still more native to newspapers.

G.K. Chesterton, GK’s Weekly, April 7, 1923
