CHURCH OF THE BRETHREN NETWORK Continuing the work of Jesus : Peacefully ~ Simply ~ Together UNOFFICIAL WEBSITE OF THE CHURCH OF THE BRETHREN |
The following resources will hopefully give you a more detailed understanding of Church of the Brethren history, customs, traditions, lifestyles, hopes, and dreams. Older listings may currently be out of print, but thankfully, a few are in second and third reprinting. This is only a categorical sampling of the numerous publications and online opportunities that exist. Several genealogical works have advertisements in our Book Store. You may also wish to check our Genealogy Library section to inquire about inter-library loan possibilities. If you know of additional Brethren, Pietist, or Anabaptist related productions that should be included, please send the necessary information to Bibliography Submissions. Your comments or suggestions about the correctness of each entry are most welcome.
This topically compiled material was originally designed to augment the Christian Educational resources of the Pennsylvania Southern District and each box is maintained by one of the District Commissions. They filled large plastic boxes with books, pamphlets, brochures, charts, videos, CD’s, and similar literature for easier transportation. We list here the contents of each box so that you may also benefit from their efforts.

This section became so large that we created a separate document and called it the Brethren Web Directory. It is a listing of the major Brethren web sites categorized in eight different sections.
“My son, forget not my law; but let thine heart keep my commandments;
For length of days, and long life, and peace shall they add to thee.”
Proverbs 3:1-2
