Credo is a compilation of twenty-five major creeds, confessions, catechisms, and covenants from Church history. Our Christian brethren of the past were prepared to defend their faith, and their words show us how to do the same. These historic, Christ-centric documents are part of our Christian heritage. In Credo, you'll find each document printed in full along with introductions to set each document in its historical context, making Credo a rich resource for parents, students, and pastors-any Christian who says "I believe."

The Church has a rich history of music and hymns. But many mainstream congregations have thrown out the older hymns. Why? Archaic. Antiquated. Obsolete. The wording in the old hymns is deemed too out-of-date to be worthwhile to the modern Church. To which Hidden in the Hymns says, "Hogwash." It's true that phrases like "raise my Ebenezer" and "round it has cast, like a mantle, the sea" are fuzzy to modern ears. But what isn't archaic is the subject matter of these old hymns. And the plain fact is that many older hymns dive deeper into comforting truths than most Christian pop songs do. These old hymns are full of Scripture and rich insights. What better music could your children have stuck in their heads? But in order for children-and adults-to love these old hymns as they deserve, they'll need to know what the hymns are talking about.Enter Hidden in the Hymns. In order to help children see why the old hymns are worth holding on to, Rivers Houseal has paraphrased eighty archaically-worded hymns into words that a middle-grader can understand. The paraphrase is presented stanza by stanza-first, a vocabulary "translation" is given, immediately followed by the original hymn lyrics. This allows children to grasp the meaning in the hymn stanza they are about to read, then see that meaning in its original wording. The result: children realize what powerful teaching and beauty is hidden in these hymns.

"Paul Schneider realized that salvation lay not in the false choices of right or left, but in obedience to the gospel of Jesus Christ." - Franklin Sanders, from the Translator's Introduction 
Pastor Schneider's kind shepherding endeared him to every congregation he served. But as he walked quietly in his own calling, he watched his dear Germany march in goose-step into the arms of a godless new regime. When the Nazis came to teach the Bride of Christ how she ought to behave in this modern Germany, they stubbed their toes on this pastor in the Rhineland. Schneider would not heil their "naked paganism which cannot agree with the Christian faith." He diligently made himself a thorn in Hitler's side and rallied the true Church as long as he had breath to call out Scripture. 
Too few stories of faithfulness like his arise from the Nazi years in Germany. In 1967, Rudolf Wentorf preserved his story in German, using testimonies from Schneider's friends, family, and personal diary. In 1993, Franklin Sanders brought that testimony to English-speaking Christians. Nogginnose Press presents this new edition to ensure that future generations gratefully remember Paul Schneider's bold witness-and final sacrifice. 
They silenced his tongue, but not his witness. And Paul Schneider has much to say to us today.

"I remember it all down to the dust in the air." That is, the day Rabbit hopped a fence and upended Aubrey White's normal, reasonable existence. Rabbit is a boy in a small town living life exactly as he pleases...and somehow managing to stop bad guys along the way. Be it by biking, dandelion-hunting, or bird-chasing, Rabbit goes on stopping petty criminals, one by one--until he and Aubrey eventually wind up face to face with the person behind all these crimes in their little town. Following his trail of antics, Aubrey struggles to figure out how Rabbit does it--because it is too crazy to be coincidence. Is it the "luck" Rabbit claims? Or...could there be another explanation?

"I had thought for a good while that the luck was long gone." Last year was... pretty wild. Gas station holdups. Dandelions. Sheriffs. But the rest of the summer has been tame--it's been months since any bad guys cropped up--and Charm Falls (not to mention Aubrey White's mother) is breathing easier. But Aubrey knows something is not right. Rabbit is not Rabbit, these days. He's glum, restive. He seems to be waiting for something. But the scary stuff is over... right? Or does Rabbit--or his "luck"--know something the rest do not? Without warning, luck is back with bells on. More unexplainable "coincidences." More adrenaline and skin-of-the-teeth danger. More Rabbit.
