Important PRC Announcement: April Schedule Change
Many of you (I am told around 300) have purchased the P&P special from RHB which includes all twelve Puritan Paperbacks in a set. Well, not quite all twelve. As you know, Thomas Brooks’ book, Precious Remedies Against Satan’s Devices, has been sold out and back-ordered for a couple of months. While I have been informed that they are close to filling those orders in the near future, it appears that the books will not be available in time for the beginning of April which is the month dedicated to reading Brooks. Therefore, I have decided to make a schedule change.
Here’s the deal: For the month of April, instead of reading Brooks’ Precious Remedies, we are going to read Jeremiah Burroughs’ The Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment which was slated for August. In August, we will then read Brooks.
Make sense?
Please help me get the word out on this. There are so many people from so many corners of the internet that I cannot possibly connect with everyone. So if you can, please help me get this announcement out. I am looking forward to digging into Burroughs next month with you as we learn about great gain of godliness with contentment.

Not to undermind the generosity of RHB, but Monergismbooks.com has the selection for Thomas Brooks.

Thanks for the info Kevin. The issue is not with RHB but with Banner having to print more copies. In other words, the issue was with the publisher, not the distributor (if that makes sense). However, Banner of Truth does have them in as of this week, but with all the orders (including international orders), I feel that it is best to swap months with Burroughs so that everyone can have maximum time reading the works.

I just thought you might like to know that I just got my “Precious rememdies against Satan’s devices” copy last night. RHB (Banner of Truth) might have made the cut after all!

That’s great to hear Yogi. However, with the number of folks overseas, I (and RHB) felt like it was in the best interest of all the readers to have enough time to read and discuss the books. I talked to Banner the other day, and they received the books last week; however, there is a turnaround of hundreds of back orders from RHB as well as current orders to fill. I felt it would be too much to ask of them to do all that to met an eminent deadline.
P.S. Have you checked the blogroll?
