Welcome to your November magazine!

Dear Friends, A very brief letter to wish you a very Happy and Blessed Christmas!

This is the last Aslan magazine in 2016, filled yet again with exceptional and inspiring new titles – as well as some bestsellers at not-to-be-missed prices! We hope these books will help lead you into an exciting and fulfilling 2017.

I believe Richard Rohr’s The Divine Dance (on the page opposite) is set to become a classic. When did you last read an inspiring, easy-to-read, understandable book on the Trinity? I can’t remember. But a true understanding of God the Father, the Holy Spirit and Jesus Christ - and a relationship with the three - is crucial to a healthy, open and well-rounded faith, which I have to admit I need help on! And I can’t be the only one.

So, as we get ready to celebrate the birth of Jesus, let’s do so in the context of the trinity.

Wishing you a happy and inspiring read.

Becoming Reverend: A Diary

Matt Woodcock Matt reveals what it was like to train as a vicar while struggling to become a father. He lays bare the highs and lows of reconciling his calling as a vicar with his life as a party-loving journalist, footie-freak and incorrigible extrovert. This is a compelling, fun account of how faith can work in the midst of a messy life, combining family and friendship with calling.

Richard Rohr The Divine Dance

The Trinity and Your Transformation The Trinity is supposed to be the central, foundational doctrine of Christian belief yet we often view it as a 'mystery'. What if we breach this mystery? How would it transform our relationship with God and renew our lives? The idea of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit was present in Jesus' life and teachings and from the very beginning of the Christian experience, yet the word Trinity is not found in the New Testament, it was coined in the 3rd century. The early Christians gave us some highly conceptualized thinking on the life of the Trinity, often explaining it like a dance. But God is not a dancer - He is the dance itself. That idea might sound novel, but it is about as traditional as you can get.

What's more God invites you to be a part of that dance. Are you ready to join in?

Breathing Under Water

The Twelve Steps to Spiritual Wholeness Deep communion and compassion are formed much more by shared pain than shared pleasure. This, says Rohr, is one of the greatest discoveries of the Twelve Step program, America’s most significant and authentic contribution to the history of spirituality. Rohr believes the Twelve Steps relate well to Christian teaching and can aid any of us who are drowning and might not even realise it. In this exploration of the program, Rohr identifies the core Christian principles in the Twelve Steps, connecting them to the Gospels.

Lent Preview Dethroning Mammon

Publishes 1st December

Making Money Serve Grace Justin Welby

An insightful exploration of money and materialism. Welby reflects on the power of money and the attitudes that surround it. Who will be on the throne of our lives? Who will direct our actions? Is it Jesus, who brings truth, hope and freedom? Or is Mammon (money) leading us into paths that tangle and deceive? Explore the tensions that arise in a society dominated by finance, and the pressures of our culture to conform. Following the Gospels, this book asks what it means to dethrone Mammon and learn to trust in the abundance and grace of God. Pb | 192 pgs | CONTINUUM

Jesus stands in the prophetic tradition of those who embody what they teach. The things he did were carefully planned, each with political and religious significance as Jesus moved towards his greatest and final act...
