Dear Friends

Welcome to your March magazine!

It's that time of the year when we concentrate on the most important event ever - the death and resurrection of Jesus. We have 8 pages of books and cards, plus a selection of CDs & DVDs and Olivewood Holding crosses, ideal for the season.

Andrew Ollerton follows up from his previous book The Bible: A Story That Makes Sense of Life, with a study on the book of Romans - both of these are on page 18.

World Book Day is March 2nd and we have an amazing selection of books on offer for the incredible price of just £1 each - but get in quick, before they sell out!

And lastly, we look ahead to the coronation, including a very useful evangelistic tract ideal to give away, pointing folk, ultimately, to the King of Kings.

World Turned Upside Down: The Psalms and the Spirituality of Pain – Finding a Way Through

Alison Morgan

There are no simple answers to life’s challenges, so how do we integrate our most testing experiences into our faith in a way which strengthens rather than weakens it? When we are at our weakest, when we feel we most need God and yet have no idea how to talk to him, it is the Psalms which leap to our rescue. With the psalmists as our guides, we learn to draw closer to God, to hear his voice in fresh ways and to identify what it is that troubles us. Borrowing their words, we find that we are able to articulate our most painful feelings and walk through suffering with honesty, hope and confidence in the God who travels beside us. Here is an opportunity to read the Psalms differently: an invitation to embark on a new journey.

Defender of the Faith: 10 Weird Facts About the Coronation

Ray Comfort

Are you curious about the fact that during Charles’ coronation the king is handed a pearl-studded sceptre, presented with a strange-looking, diamond-encrusted 'orb', and three swords are carried before him - one of which is blunt? Why is special oil poured on his head in a ceremony hidden from public eyes? What is the 'Ampulla', and why does the king wear six robes during the ceremony? What is the meaning of the four crosses on the king’s crown? In these short but fascinating chapters, you will learn ten interesting facts that will better inform you of what happens during the coronation of a king and what it means to be defender of the faith.

Defenders of the Faith: The British Monarchy, Religion and the Next Coronation

Catherine Pepinster

In 1953, millions across Britain and the world were glued to their TV sets, watching the first televised coronation of a British monarch. What they saw was a deeply religious, medieval ritual. In her 70 years as Queen, Elizabeth II's reign had been profoundly shaped by her Christian faith, expressed in her coronation vows. But what part will religion play in the reign of Charles III and in the coronation of a Prince of Wales who once pledged to be defender of faith, not just defender of the Christian faith?

Godforsaken: The Cross - the Greatest Hope of All

Stephen Cottrell

In the Gospel of Mark's account of the Passion narrative, Jesus calls out from the cross 'Eloi, Eloi, lama sabachthani?' which is the Aramaic for 'My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?' - the first line of Psalm 22. It's an anguished expression - traditionally ascribed to King David - of defeat, failure, abandonment and despair. This series of reflections, written for Lent and Holy Week 2023 by the Archbishop of York Stephen Cottrell, ponders the significance of these words. What does it mean for Jesus to have quoted them, at the very end of his life? What do those words mean for us? This is a beautiful and compelling exploration of the dark, suffering side of the Passion - and how Jesus' words lead us to the greatest hope of all.

Is Easter Unbelievable?: Four Questions Everyone Should Ask About the Resurrection Story

Rebecca McLaughlin

The resurrection of Jesus from the dead is an extraordinary thing to believe. Yet millions of Christians around the world believe that Jesus' resurrection was a real, historical event. Indeed, 'if Christ has not been raised, our preaching is useless and so is your faith' and Christians are 'of all people most to be pitied.' (1 Corinthians 15) In this concise book, respected apologist Rebecca McLaughlin outlines the evidence that Jesus really did rise from the dead and why it's the best news ever.

Failure: What Jesus Said About Sin, Mistakes and Messing Stuff Up

Emma Ineson

In 2019, Emma Ineson wrote about ambition and what it means for Christians to be successful. And then there was a global pandemic . . . Suddenly failure began to feel very much more familiar than success. But what is failure? What did Jesus think of it? What did he say about sin, mistakes and generally mucking things up? At the start of this wonderfully humorous and encouraging book - which will end at the cross - it's suggested that our tendency to lump all kinds of failure together could be a bit unhelpful. As the book draws to an end, we are reminded of our calling to live life to the full, to take risks despite our fears. We are bound sometimes to fail! Yet gazing at Jesus we may discern in the heartache, vulnerability and humility of failure, the glory of the cross.

God Shines Forth: How the Nature of God Shapes and Drives the Mission of the Church

Daniel Hames & Michael Reeves

Evangelism and missions are parts of the Christian life often accompanied by fears, insecurities and cultural pressures. In this addition to the Union series, Daniel Hames and Michael Reeves argue that an individual's relationship with God influences their evangelism and missions more than anything else. To illustrate how knowledge of God influences evangelism and missions, Hames and Reeves address biblical themes such as the glory of God, Christ's sacrifice, the fallenness of man and the church's future hope. There is hope for those who find these topics intimidating - when believers focus on the glory of the Lamb of God, the gospel will shine through them.

Right views of sin have a tendency to lead us to right views of the Person of the Saviour. But the converse is also true; right views of the Saviour’s person lead to the right views of Sin. The Person of Christ is a wonderful encouragement for Christians today. Despite the difference between this edition’s original publication date, the truths Bonar addresses are timeless. Focusing his structure on topics from the person of Christ as the essence of good tidings to views on Christ and the second coming, Bonar sets out a precedent for heartfelt evangelical exposition of the Gospel via the personal relationship Christians have with the Person of Christ.

History and Eschatology: Jesus and the Promise of Natural Theology

N. T. Wright

PRE-ORDER: Publishes 14th March

The question of 'natural theology' interlocks with the related questions of how we can conceive of God acting in the world and of why, if God is God, the world is full of evil. Widely shared cultural and philosophical assumptions have conditioned our understanding of history in ways that make the idea of divine action in history problematic. But could better historical study itself win from ancient Jewish and Christian cosmology and eschatology a renewed way of understanding the relationship between God and the world? N. T. Wright argues that this can indeed be done and in this ground-breaking book he develops a distinctive approach to natural theology grounded in what he calls an 'epistemology of love'.

Beholding: Deepening Our Experience in God

Strahan Coleman

How can time with God be a source of peace in a loud and distracting world? In Beholding, spiritual director and poet Strahan Coleman invites readers to discover the joy of being with God, not just working for Him. As they inhabit the art of resting in God's presence, prayer becomes not only a place of seeking, but becoming. Beholding calls Christians to understand how:

• Prayer is so much more than spoken conversation between us and God; it's a way of existing together.

• Beholding God in prayer is profoundly connected to beholding and dignifying others.

• Embracing prayer practices from different Christian traditions digs a deep well of peace in the soul.

• Our everyday ordinary lives can become the meeting place for God through silence, solitude, community, creation and hospitality.

Mountain Moving Prayer: The Unlimited Potential

The toughest challenges can be tackled, defeated and shifted aside by faith-fuelled prayer. The huge challenges casting shadows across our communities can also be addressed through prayer. 'God will move our personal mountains, but we mustn't stop there. His goal is to transform the lives of those around us as well,' observes Debra. 'God's call to me from the very beginning was to focus prayer on the big, specific issues causing social fragmentation: lack of aspiration amongst young people, elderly isolation, family failures, distrust and separation between ethnic groups. These mountains need moving in most neighbourhoods.'

Evangelism is crucial, it is urgent, it is exciting, it is wonderful. But it is also hard. Often, sharing our faith with other people is the area of our Christian lives where we feel at our most useless. The Bible contains a wealth of theological truth that is a powerhouse of encouragement for evangelism, including the basic truths that God is God and you are you. God is who he has always been: infinite, eternal, unchangeable, all–powerful, at work in his world. You are you; you don’t need to become someone you are not. God has not called a select group of elite Christians to tell the world about Jesus; he has chosen his weak, insecure, ineloquent people. He has chosen you.

Words are powerful. They sink deep into our minds and our spirits. They can build others up or put others down. Many of us want to 'say the right thing' and make a difference to others with our words, but we don’t know how to.

We all experience setbacks and disappointments in life. Sometimes those setbacks become entire seasons of life. This book uses nine amazing 'comeback stories' from the Bible to show how God provides everything needed to get through challenging setbacks. Rather than showing people overcoming hardship through simple grit, the stories of Moses, David, Abigail, Esther, Joseph, Jonah, Elijah, Hezekiah and Peter tell of extraordinary changes of heart and how God works in all things for the good of those who love him. Readers will be given a new perspective on their struggles and will be encouraged to trust God in them. Author John Meador uses his 35 years of Bible-teaching ministry, as well as his own experience of suffering permanent hearing loss, to write with faithfulness, compassion and authenticity.

When you’ve experienced soul-crushing silence from heaven, despite your fervent supplications? Using the book of Habakkuk, as well as his own personal experience of deep suffering, Adam Mabry examines the art of lament - how to cry out to God in desperation from a place of faith and hope. Readers will learn that God is big enough and good enough to handle hard questions and that his sovereign silence is filled with purpose for their lives. They will be encouraged to keep trusting God even when he seems silent, slow, unfair, different, or wrong.

However in the Gospel, in the Good News of God’s work, there is always a reason to celebrate.

He explains that when believers come together in prayer, both the individual and the community will spiritually benefit. Readers will learn how praying together can transform their communities into beacons of hope and be given practical strategies to implement these changes in their own church.

Hope in the Eleventh Hour: A Mother's Journey Through Grief with Eternal Eyes

Sarah B. Berger

When Sarah Berger's eighteen-year-old son went to heaven in an inexplicable single-car accident, Sarah found herself plunged into soul-searing grief - the kind that can ruin marriages and destroy faith.

Now, for the many others who grieve losing loved ones to suicide, accidents and illnesses, Sarah points them to the God of all comfort. Hope in the Eleventh Hour helps readers:

• Realise their loved one in Christ is truly part of the great cloud of witnesses.

• Trust God with the hardest questions.

• Receive God's comfort through dreams, nature and divine encounters.

Greear unpacks the essential aspects of the Christian message, showing both secular and religious people what the gospel is and how it addresses our most pertinent questions.

Humility: The Joy of Self-Forgetfulness

Gavin Ortlund

Some think that being humble means hiding your talents and abilities or being weak and inauthentic. But the Bible paints a different picture - defining humility as a self-forgetfulness leading to joy and explaining that it is a life-giving virtue that frees you from the restricting needs of your ego. Gavin Ortlund encourages readers that humility is not just an abstract virtue but a mark of gospel integrity. He examines humility both on a personal level and in the context of the church, giving examples of ways to cultivate it - including meditation on the gospel and practicing intentional gratitude.

Humbled: Welcoming the Uncomfortable Work of God

David Mathis

How do I humble myself? Humility, according to the Bible, is not something we can just up and do. Both the negative and positive examples of Scripture - from Pharaoh to Rehoboam, from Josiah to Ahab, from Hezekiah to Manasseh, and even to Christ himself - teach us that humility first comes from the hand of God. He initiates the humbling of his creatures. And once he has, the question confronts us: Will you receive it? Will you humble yourself in response to his humbling hand, or will you kick against him? This concise, accessible study of Scripture’s humble-self language uncovers two surprising lessons about the pursuit of humility in the Christian - both what we cannot do and also what steps we can take.

God Alone: His Unique Attributes and How Knowing Them Changes Us

Jonathan Griffiths

Our constant danger is that we have a view of God that is too small. We are living in a mefocused, treat-yourself world - a world that oppressively encourages us to focus on ourselves. But a life turned inward - rather than focused on God - brings peril and confusion. When we fail to know God properly, we become selfish and hopeless. But a renewed understanding of who God is changes that. Pastor Jonathan Griffiths shows us how God Alone can transform us at a root level. With pastoral warmth and heart, Griffiths shows us the character of God in all His beauty and goodness. This book is both a plea for the people of God to know Him intimately and, at the same time, an invitation to those who do not yet know Him.

After God's Heart: Life Lessons From King David

Andy Percey

The Bible devotes more verses to David than anyone else except Jesus. God called David a man after his own heart, yet he made monumental mistakes. So why was this flawed king so esteemed and what can we learn? Touching on universal themes such as being overlooked, family tensions, conflict and temptation, Percey draws out biblical truths that gently challenge us to look at our lives and draw closer to Jesus. David’s life gives hope to all of us who make mistakes and whose hearts are easily moved that we too can learn to be after God’s own heart.
