Christian Education Publications: Donald Hilton anthologies
Best-selling anthologies compiled by Donald Hilton

Donald Hilton, a former Moderator of the General Assembly of the United Reformed Church, has compiled a range of prayer collections suitable for use by individuals or groups, in worship or for private meditation. The material featured includes original prayers by well-known authors, well-loved poems and prose extracts, excerpts from challenging and unexpected sources, and much more. Each book is carefully structured round a theme, sometimes liturgical, sometimes biblical, sometimes reflecting the world we live in. Detailed indexes make it easy to find a prayer or reading for any occasion.

All these books are already well-known and loved best-sellers.
