Solid Rock Publications was formed by vote of the First Baptist Church in North Conway, New Hampshire, in the summer of 1997. Its purpose is to provide quality Christian reading and study materials from a fundamentalist, separatist, Baptist perspective. The members of the First Baptist Church have a desire for brothers and sisters in Christ to be edified, challenged and blessed in their study of the Scriptures and their walk with Christ. Solid Rock Publications is a Ministry. We do not charge for any of our publications. However, many people have asked how they can help with the cost of producing our materials. It does cost money to produce what we hope are valuable materials. Individuals who have found Solid Rock to be a blessing and who desire to help offset the cost of production are encouraged to send a check payable to First Baptist Church with "Solid Rock Publications" on the memo line. Many folks have asked us concerning suggested donation amounts. To help out, we have tried to estimate roughly the cost of producing particular pieces of literature these amounts can be found at the bottom of the title descrition. If we can assist you in knowing more about the Christian life, or if any of our pieces of literature would be a help to you, don't hesitate to contact us. If our literature has been a help or blessing to you, we would love to hear from you. SOLID ROCK AVAILABLE TITLES LISTING May 2007 Evangelistic Tracts "What Does It Take to Get to Heaven?"
