A calendar with a difference
Every morning as believers around the globe lift up their hearts to God to begin their day,
a familiar component of that process will be the Choice Gleanings calendar.
In 1922 William J. Pell began Gospel Folio Press. Becoming exercised about producing a daily
devotional calendar, Choice Gleanings it was launched in 1940 and was an immediate success.
Within a few years Gospel Folio Press found itself producing 40,000 calendars annually.
Material for the calendars was gleaned from books, originally, but over time the calendar
included more original writing than 'gleanings.' Today almost sixty writers from around
the world contribute meditations to the Choice Gleanings calendar.
Gospel Folio Press has, with the establishment of this new Choice Gleanings
website, advanced the legacy of this 'calendar with a difference.'
The 2006 calendar will be mailed worldwide so that, as for the last sixty-five years, those who read it daily will gain encouragement and comfort in
the situations and circumstances of life. For those who preferring an electronic version, they can subscribe to a daily email version of the calendar.
Either way this is a wonderful instrument used by God to build up His people.

DAILY READINGS: Joshua 20-21; Isaiah 14; 1 Thessalonians 5 |
| Ephesians 2:13 But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made
nigh by the blood of Christ. |
| Every July 4th, the United States celebrates Independence Day,
when in 1776 they separated from Britain. Adam and Eve ushered in
independence from the King of Heaven when they chose their wisdom
over God’s and ate of the tree He had commanded them not to.
One disobedient act separated us from God, and sin and death
entered into the world. However, the Lord Himself led us to another
tree, the Cross of Calvary. There, by grace through faith in His sacrifice,
we were taken from independence to dependence on Him again,
and from death unto life. Hallelujah! —Jerry Proctor |
| Anointed King, with glory crowned, rightful heir and Lord of all!
Thee we gaze on, Thee recall, bearing here our sorrows all. —Lowell Mason |
