About

Our central Pennsylvania shop is casual and homey and we do a sizable mail-order business as well. We believe that we can help you find books that you might not find elsewhere. We are — as a matter of principle, not pragmatics — very ecumenical and carry books from a variety of perspectives. It’s not everywhere that you can get works by Thomas Merton, Francis Schaeffer, Martin Luther King, Madeleine L’Engle and Jack Hayford all served up with a knowing smile and a hearty recommendation.

While we ourselves are Presbyterian (for instance, we love the writings of Eugene Peterson, J.I. Packer and Frederick Buechner)we happily carry resources for all sorts of mainline parishes, faith-based mission groups, those praying for charismatic renewal and laity-oriented small-group ministries. No matter what your need or tradition, we are here to serve you.

We also sell distinctive gifts, cards and all sorts of recorded music–from Bruce Cockburn to Yo Yo Ma, The Supertones to Squirrel Nut Zippers. We can offer helpful suggestions in all sorts of areas (especially about the coolest contemporary Christian music and Celtic tunes!) We’re glad you’ve discovered us and we offer you — most of all — God’s peace.
