    P. D. James

    The human race has become infertile, and the last generation to be born is now adult. Civilization itself is crumbling as suicide and despair become commonplace.

Then he is approached by Julian, a bright, attractive woman who wants him to help get her an audience with his cousin, the powerful Warden of England. She and her band of unlikely revolutionaries may just awaken his desire to live . . . and they may also hold the key to survival for the human race.Told with P. D. James’s trademark suspense, insightful characterization, and riveting storytelling, The Children of Men is a story of a world with no children and no future.

  • The Children of the King

    Max Lucado, Sergio Martinez

    Hardcover (Crossway, Feb. 28, 2014)
    One of the greatest gifts parents can give their children is the assurance that mom and dad love them just as they are, apart from anything that they do. But telling them once won't make it sink in. Kids need to be reminded of that foundational fact over and over, until the truth takes root deep within their hearts.In the same way, children need to hear again and again that their heavenly Father loves them and wants to spend time with them―even if they're not wonderfully talented, extremely smart, or exceptionally popular.That message of God's unconditional acceptance and deep desire to enjoy a friendship with his children is at the heart of this book.Originally published by Crossway in 1994, The Children of the King has now been redesigned to enchant a whole new generation of children. Combining the warm narrative of best-selling author Max Lucado and the engaging illustrations of award-winning artist Sergio Martinez, The Children of the King will give parents and grandparents fresh opportunities to remind children of God’s never-changing affection for them.That truth―the assurance of God's delight in them―is a blessing that has eternal impact for all children of the King everywhere.
