Books by Gracia Grindal

This volume by Gracia Grindal introduces English-speaking readers to several significant yet unsung Lutheran women hymn writers from the sixteenth century to the present. After a brief introductory discussion of Elisabeth Cruciger, the first woman hymn writer of the Reformation, Grindal provides fascinating profiles of these talented Scandinavian women who "preached from home": Dorothe Engelbretsdatter, Birgitte Hertz Boye, Berthe Canutte Aarflot, Lina Sandell, Britt G. Hallqvist, and Lisbeth Smedegaard Andersen.

From the most influential man in modern history, this 40-day devotional offers a short introduction to Martin Luther's life, daily writings, reflective questions, journal-writing exercises, and prayers focusing on the Apostles' Creed, Ten Commandments, and Lord's Prayer. Use for personal study or small group discussion during Advent or Lent.
