20 Ways to Make Every Day Better

Joyce Meyer Our days are full of challenges and our impulse is to "write today off" and hope for a better day tomorrow. But that creates a hard pattern to break. One written off day easily turns into many, and that's a life far from what God has for us. A new, transforming sense of excitement, happiness and contentment in our lives is possible when we pursue God each day. Discover biblical illustrations, actionable advice, uplifting stories and the encouragement needed to start enjoying the life God created for you. A step at a time.

Love Is His Meaning

Keith Ward Ward explores the various figures of speech and images that Jesus used, and their ways of expressing the love of God. They communicate spiritual truths in a poetic way, encouraging us in how we make decisions and love others. And they promise a fulfilment of our hopes for a just and peaceful world. Putting aside presentations of Jesus' teachings that focus on a literalist, authoritarian and divisive interpretation, Keith Ward shows that what remains is the Gospel of a divine love that is stronger than death, and is the only power that can and will redeem our broken and disordered world.

Prayer & Spirituality Praying the Bible with Luther

Publishes 21st July

Michael Parsons There's a need in today's church to relate scripture and prayer in such a way that enables us to speak God's word. This book takes a simple 'lectio divina' approach developed in the 16th century by Martin Luther and offers practical guidance for prayer. Beginning each time of prayer with a Bible passage, Luther would meditate on it with four 'strands' in mind: teaching, thanksgiving, repentance and supplication. Then he would pray in response to the passage and its four strands. This is an introduction to Luther's method, with demonstration and encouragement, helping us to turn scripture into prayer and to pray it into our lives.

‌ Unpopular Culture

Guvna B "Money is the key to happiness. Work hard, play hard. Look out for number one."

Popular culture is full of phrases like these, telling us (and the younger generation) the best way to live, the right things to buy, the right body shape to have, the right people to hang out with. These messages are everywhere you look, 24 hours a day. But what if there was another way to live? What if we chose to live differently: to stand against injustice, to live life for more than just ourselves, to dare to be unpopular but for Jesus' sake? Christian rap artist Guvna B is rebelling against the status quo, and he's calling everyone - the young people in our churches in particular - to join him in changing the script. This book demonstrates another way to live, to find freedom in going against the grain but living a life that reflects the Gospel. It's time for unpopular culture to take the stage.

Christy offers beautiful insights on trust and surrender as the key aspects of how the Father brings transformation to our lives Bill Johnson

How do we address, deal with and encounter hardship? How do we take the Kingdom message which involves redemption and restoration but also help people feel safe? How do we remove the stigma surrounding broken areas - areas where people aren't healed - and address suffering? This book takes a look at Romans 12:1-8 and focuses on the theme of "change". True change doesn't come about from a quick fix; it takes sacrifice, sweat and suffering, and it's the key to morality, integrity and longevity in the Christian faith.

How Does Sanctification Work?

NEW

Perfect Sinners

NEW Publishes 31st July

David Powlison There's a popular view that there's a set template for spiritual growth; grace, identity, discipline. But Scripture portrays sanctification in a variety of ways. No single factor, truth or protocol captures why and how a person is changed into the image of Christ. Weaving together personal stories, biblical study and theological reflection, David Powlison shows how God meets you where you are. He highlights the variety of factors that work together, helping us avoid generalisations and pat answers in the search for a key to sanctification. This book is a go-to resource for understanding the multifaceted, lifelong, personal journey of discipleship.

You can go to another church and be told: "You're a wretched sinner". The emphasis is very different, yet both are truth. Holding both together can be tricky but it's essential. Emphasising just one causes problems. Learn how to keep the balance and distinguish between our "status" before God and our "walk" with Him. Pb | 144 pgs | GBC

Rethinking Holiness

Bernie A. Van De Walle Holiness is experiencing a renaissance both within and beyond the church today. This approachable theological introduction to the Christian doctrine of holiness challenges the commonly held idea that holiness is primarily a moral category. Bernie explains that holiness is grounded not in ethics but in the basic nature of God; it is essentially and exclusively a divine property. The book highlights the Bible's necessary and corrective role in defining holiness and shows how individual holiness is grounded in the community that is the church, in both Catholic and whole church contexts.

This is a new look at the historical Jesus through his relationships with others and with the God he called Abba, and through his death and resurrection.

Spiritual and Religious

The Gospel in an Age of Paganism Tom Wright

'I'm spiritual, not religious.' It's a phrase often used to explain why, although they don't go to church, people believe in some kind of purpose. But what does this 'spirituality' consist of? Often people are simply reverting to forms of paganism that are similar to those that confronted the early Christians. Wright traces the parallels between the worldviews of the 1st and 21st centuries, showing how understanding the New Testament in its original pagan context can help you live and communicate the Gospel more effectively amidst the plethora of spiritual pathways seen today.

But Jesus spoke the truth in love, despite opposition, and calls us to do the same.

Bezet invites you to sit in on his real conversations with people, showing you how it can be done in loving, courageous ways.

When he discovers letters from the father he believed was dead, he wonders if magic is there after all. But not everything is as it seems. With questions and hope, Abel runs away to find the truth. But danger follows him and the people he encounters.

Will the answers bring him healing? And is it the 'magic' that will one day lead him home?

A Church for the Poor

Martin Charlesworth & Natalie Williams There's a growing need for churches to care for the poor. Despite dedicated volunteers and millions invested to support those most in need, churches fail to attract those they are helping to the faith that motivates their minstry. Even when people from poorer backgrounds start on a journey of faith, many churches struggle to create an inclusive environment. With biblical insight and practical examples this is a vision of churches where people from all areas of society can find a home and play a part.

The Way

Living the Beatitudes Today Carl Beech

If you want to get to the heart of what it means to follow Jesus, the Beatitudes are a good place to start. Matthew 5 shows how we can have good biblical knowledge, but lack in matters of the heart, character and spiritual disciplines. The Beatitudes to be merciful, meek, humble, pure, a peacemaker and so on are so counter cultural, yet so necessary. This book is full of real-life stories of people living out the Beatitudes. Be inspired to open yourself up to be used

by God. Be encouraged with the promise of His blessing. And be challenged to live your life completely for Jesus. The way is narrow, but it leads to life.

Why After Ten Years of Talking with Atheists, I'm still a Christian Justin Brierley

No one likes to be told they are wrong; but is that any reason not to listen? Seeking to burst the 'Christian bubble' that many believers find comfort in, Justin Brierley began to invite atheists, sceptics and non-believers onto Premier Christian Radio to unpack and understand the so-called 'unbelievables' of the Christian faith. Now, over 10 years later, the show continues to captivate thousands. Exploring conversation highlights, look behind the scenes at how ten years of talking with atheists, sceptics and non-believers has stirred, shaken but ultimately strengthened Justin's own belief in the not-so-unbelievable Christian faith.
