Internal Revolution One Man’s Incredible Journey from Near Death to New Life
Rob Joy This is the true – and very raw – story of Rob Joy, who was a violent, paranoid and psychotic drug addict before meeting Jesus. The story takes us from his early days, through his troubled teens and into his dark adult life. Rob idolized his dad, who was very anti-God, and was devastated when he died. A powerful, honest and, at times, harrowing read. However, the turnaround in his life once he surrenders to Jesus is amazing. Jesus set him free – a wonderful miracle and an amazing testimony. ROB JOY is a passionate evangelist, speaker and author. He is founder of Storming the Nations, a ministry committed to seeing a social and cultural change in the UK for the glory of God. He is married to Lydia and they live in the South of England.

Complete Surrender A Biography of Eric Liddell Olympic Gold Medallist and Missionary
Julian Wilson Revised edition of the biography of Olympic champion and missionary Eric Liddell. Eric Liddell, the Scottish 400m Olympic champion from the 1924 Olympic Games in Paris was immortalized in the Oscar-winning film Chariots of Fire. His story, however, goes far beyond the restrictions of a 2-hour movie. Julian Wilson’s vivid biography recounts not only the highs and lows of Liddell’s athletics career, including his controversial decision never to run on a Sunday, but also his life after the Olympics as a missionary in war-torn China. The book draws upon interviews with Liddell’s surviving family and friends, and includes some fascinating anecdotes, reminiscences, extracts from his letters and a number of rare photographs. JULIAN WILSON is the author of a number of bestselling biographies including Wigglesworth: The Complete Story. He currently resides in Melbourne, Australia.

Forbidden Lipstick Confessions Series
G.P. Taylor and Claire Wright A contemporary version of the story of David and Bathsheba. When David Samuel, chairman of Globe Oil, a multinational oil company, becomes a widower, his world is turned upside down. His old friend, Nathan – also a work colleague – and his wife have provided support and care for him, as has his friend and colleague, Rich Hampton. Rich has recently married the beautiful Beth. Then David notices a beautiful girl on a train and is very attracted to her. Later it becomes devastatingly clear that this is the new Mrs Hampton. David plans to get Rich out of the way by sending him on an assignment abroad, and begins an affair with his wife; but Beth becomes pregnant. When conscientious Rich won’t return home, there’s only one solution in David’s mind. He has Rich murdered. Played against a strong backdrop of good supporting characters (including Beth’s sister, Cerys, whose husband has an affair and leaves her), Beth ultimately loses the baby. But David has an epiphany; fasting for the child and the woman he loves, he meets with God. He is a chastened and changed man. Beth too has her own experience with God, and throws herself into charitable work. At the end, they come together again, different, but still in love.

Twenty First Dates My Search for Mr Right
Rebecca K. Maddox Humorous accounts of the author’s search for Mr Right with practical advice and encouragement for fellow seekers. Rebecca K. Maddox is 30 years old. After many years as a single Christian woman, she embarked on a dating experiment – to go on twenty first dates, with twenty men, met in twenty different ways. Over the course of a year, Rebecca was almost compromised on the dance floor, stranded in a muddy village and the catcher of a bouquet. She sheltered under a cupcake box, waited nervously in line for results and spent hours trawling profiles on the Internet. She was driven in a rusty car with no floor and chased by an angry granny. She narrowly escaped a squirting tiger and a falling pigeon, attempted to eat a variety of foodstuffs while trying to look attractive, and struggled in and out of her glad rags in the toilets of approximately ten trains to London. She was confused, amused, frustrated and dazzled in equal measure. This is the true story of one woman’s determined search for the man of her dreams, with plenty of practical advice on the world of Christian dating. REBECCA K. MADDOX, after she finished writing this book, decided to give up her search for a husband entirely and remain happily single in London. Shortly after making this decision, she met Adam and they are now engaged. She likes God’s sense of humour. Names have been changed, including the author’s own, to spare everyone’s blushes.

Gospel for Muslims
Astounding Stories of God’s Intervention in Islamic Africa
Learning to Read the Bible Through Eastern Eyes
James Andrews
Steve Bell
The book gives an extraordinary insight into closed communities such as the Fulani, as well as offering a viewpoint on Islam and its adherents, and the persecution and opposition the church is overcoming in this part of the world.
Steve Bell has distilled three decades of experience in crosscultural communication of the gospel to ordinary Muslim people.
In the face of fierce episodes of persecution the church is growing steadily and hunger for God is increasing. These stories demonstrate the power and love of God in action despite deep poverty, extremism and intense opposition. JAMES ANDREWS, his wife and their team founded a Bible College in a heavily Islamic region near the Sahara Desert. They have established a Christian outreach that includes churches, mission stations, a training college and broadcasting.

Gospel for Muslims asserts that all theology – including western theology – is influenced by the culture of those who write it. Help is therefore needed to move beyond the western understanding of the Bible in order to tell Muslims the good news about Jesus in more accessible ways and enable them to believe and follow him in culturally appropriate ways – even if it means doing so from outside institutionalized Christianity. STEVE BELL is a recognized communicator with over thirty years’ experience in the area of Christian witness to Muslims. He is currently National Director of Interserve England and Wales and was co-editor of Between Naivety and Hostility. KEY POINTS • Sequel to successful Grace for Muslims • Highly respected author, speaks at events around the world • Clear, original, biblical thinking that transcends culture TARGET AUDIENCE • Christians in communities with Muslims • Preachers, teachers and leaders ISBN // 978-1-85078-880-5 PRICE // £8.99 PAGES // 208 pp FORMAT // 198 mm x 130 mm PB SUBJECT // Religion/Christian Ministry/Evangelism RIGHTS // World RELEASE // February 2012

God Meant It For Good
By Searching
Vaughan Roberts
R. T. Kendall
Isobel Kuhn
In a fresh and readable style, the author of Turning Points, Vaughan Roberts, issues a challenging call to Christians to live out their faith.
God Meant it For Good traces the stages of Joseph’s life as he matures from a young and impetuous man to one who is prepared to leave his own vindication with God.
The amazing story of Isobel Kuhn, a missionary who served in China.
Targeting difficult but crucial areas such as our attitude to money and possessions, sexuality, contentment, relativism and service, this is holiness in the tradition of J.C. Ryle for the contemporary generation.
It presents a case study in total forgiveness, exemplified by Joseph’s reconciliation with his brothers, and applies it to Christian living today. This classic book will challenge, provoke, transform and excite, as the God who taught Joseph to love, forgive and serve, is the God who meant it for good.

The Good God
Sharing God’s Passion
Retrieving Word and Spirit in Today’s Church
Enjoying Father, Son and Spirit
Prophetic Spirituality
Jennifer Campbell
Michael Reeves
Paul Hedley Jones
With a close reading of both Hildegard and Bonhoeffer, Jennifer Campbell encourages the contemporary church to read the signs of the times and to reach out to those in need in prophetic witness to both the Word of God and the Holy Spirit.
In a very accessible way Michael Reeves writes about God as Trinity in order for both our understanding and faith to grow.
Sharing God’s Passion is an excellent resource for Christians who wish to grow in their understanding of God’s purposes for the world and to embody God’s passion as his prophets did so faithfully.
In The Good God, Michael Reeves writes about growing in our enjoyment of God and seeing how God’s triune being makes all his ways beautiful. He sees it as a chance to taste and see that the Lord is good, to have our hearts won and ourselves refreshed.
With a view to recovering a balanced and rounded theology of prophecy for the church today, she discusses the workings of both the Word of God (viewed as Christ and the Scriptures) and the Holy Spirit in the works and lives of two powerful prophetic leaders.
MICHAEL REEVES is the Theological Advisor for UCCF.
JENNIFER CAMPBELL is lecturer in Christian Doctrine at Westminster Theological Centre, Cheltenham and is leader of Eaglesinflight.

Jesus is the Christ
The World of 1 Corinthians
No More Law!
The Messianic Testimony of the Gospels
An Annotated Visual and Literary Source-Commentary
A Bold Study in Galatians
Michael F. Bird
Matthew R. Malcolm
Bruce Atkinson
Explains the importance of the title and role of Messiah in each of the Gospels and argues that Christianity was a messianic movement rooted in its Jewish context.
In The World of 1 Corinthians Matthew Malcolm aims to broaden our understanding of Paul’s letter to the church in Corinth by allowing us to see it in its wider context of Greek and Roman culture and literature.
A no-nonsense, accessible, contemporary commentary on Paul’s letter to the Galatians by a foremost Pentecostal pastor & Bible scholar.
Michael Bird engages the subject of the messianism of the four Gospels. While the title and role of ‘Messiah’ ascribed to Jesus in the Gospels has long been regarded as a late add on, a fabricated claim, or an insignificant feature, Bird argues in contrast that the messianic claims are the most significant for the portrayal of Jesus. MICHAEL F. BIRD is lecturer in New Testament, Crossway College, Australia.

Paternoster Books January — June 2012
Multi-Voiced Church Stuart & Sian Murray Williams Multi-Voiced Church argues strongly and persuasively for churches in which everyone is important for the well-being and growth of the community. The New Testament indicates that the early churches were multivoiced, participative and expectant that the Holy Spirit would speak through all members of the community. First-generation renewal movements have typically been multi-voiced, recovering this New Testament characteristic. But institutionalization (often accompanied by clericalization) has persistently reduced such diversity of participation and resulted in many aspects of church life becoming mono-voiced or restricted to only a few voices. STUART MURRAY WILLIAMS is a freelance trainer/consultant with the Anabaptist Network and co-ordinator of Urban Expression. SIAN MURRAY WILLIAMS is Tutor in Worship Studies at Bristol Baptist College.

Understanding Jesus
Luke 9—19
Andrew T.B. McGowan

An exciting and challenging reflection on the person and work of Christ through the history of the doctrine, with application to today’s Christians in today’s world.
Paul Barnett expounds Luke chapters 9—19 with the intention of provoking faith and faithfulness in the lives of Jesus’ followers today.
This book is a fresh and exciting exercise in historical theology. McGowan examines the gradual development, over the centuries, of the church’s understanding of the person and work of Jesus Christ, assessed in the light of what the Scriptures have to say on the subject. The book highlights the developing understanding, together with the mistakes and heresies that forced the church into defining the truth about Christ more clearly. The great debates are examined with unique insight and sensitivity, and the debate is brought right up to the present day with application for the contemporary church. ANDREW T.B.

To Meet and Satisfy a Very Hungry People The Origins and Fortunes of English Pentecostalism, 1907—1925
A Pledge of Love Balthasar Hubmaier and Anabaptist Sacramentalism
Timothy B. Walsh
Brian C. Brewer
A scholarly examination of the emergence of English Pentecostalism at the beginning of the twentieth century.
A close and thorough examination of Hubmaier’s view of the sacraments within the context of worship. A Pledge of Love examines the distinctive theology of this sixteenth-century Anabaptist and his possible influence upon others.
This study aims to elucidate the origins of how the Pentecostal message came to England, highlighting reasons for its appeal to an initially small constituency, while tracing its emergence in specific religious localities which ranged from Anglican vestry, to mission hall platform, to domestic drawing room. Its chief purpose is to examine the origins and emergence of a distinctively English version of the Pentecostal phenomenon. TIMOTHY B. WALSH is Associate lecturer at Regent’s Theological College, West Malvern.

Bedford’s Victorian Pilgrim William Hale White in Context
Balancing Head and Heart in Seventeenth Century Puritanism
Michael A. Brealey
Larry Siekawitch
Adam Hood (Ed)
A close reading of the life and letters of William Hale White shows that some misunderstandings have arisen in the interpretation of this important figure. The book offers a fresh reading and an examination of such significant issues as doubt, loss of faith, and crises over vocation and church.
An examination of the doctrine of God in the theological construction of Stephen Charnock, exploring his use of reason and his commitment to experiential faith.
A volume of significant contributions to our understanding of John Oman.
Stephen Charnock’s Doctrine of the Knowledge of God
This work represents a revisionist approach to William Hale White. It corrects previous studies at some important points, questions existing interpretations, and employs new theoretical strategies alongside fresh research in primary sources.
This study explores Charnock’s doctrine of the knowledge of God to discover his contributions to the Restoration English Puritan understanding of a balance of head and heart. Charnock paved a distinctive trail in the midst of diverse paths the Restoration Puritans were taking, but he also maintained certain characteristics, which were common to the Puritan way.
MICHAEL A. BREALEY is the librarian of Wesley College, Bristol.

Since we are Justified by Faith
For Whom Did Christ Die?
Justification in the Theologies of the Protestant Reformation
The Extent of the Atonement in Paul’s Theology
Michael Parsons (ed)
Jarvis J. Williams
An accessible and academic reading of the doctrine of justification by faith.
A careful and exegetical reading and examination of the Pauline passages that suggest particular atonement, together with a thorough engagement with contemporary scholars on the subject.
It is often assumed that the Reformation taught justification by faith as if there was a monolithic view of the doctrine. Since we are Justified by Faith is a collection of important essays that dispel this myth, demonstrating the diverse theologies of that period. Experts in the field, including Cameron MacKenzie, Aaron O’Kelly, Jeff Fisher, Kirk MacGregor, Mary Patton Baker, Karin Spiecker Stetina, David Hall, Bonnie Pattison, Timothy Shaun Price, Andre Gazal, and Chris Ross, write on the theologies of Luther, Melanchthon, Oecolampadius, Marpeck, Calvin, and the English reformers to give a nuanced reading of the doctrine in sixteenth- century Protestant theology.
In For Whom Did Christ Die? Williams argues that according to Paul, Jesus died exclusively for the elect to achieve their salvation. The book attempts to show that particular atonement is not simply an abstract theological doctrine, imposed on the text by theologians, and void of a biblical or exegetical foundation, but that this doctrine is biblical, is Pauline, and that particular atonement can be detected in Pauline theology by means of a careful, exegetical analysis of the relevant Pauline texts and of the relevant texts in the Old Testament and Second Temple Judaism.
MICHAEL PARSONS is the Commissioning Editor of Paternoster; Associate Research Fellow of Spurgeon’s College, London; and author of several books on the Reformation.
JARVIS J. WILLIAMS is an assistant professor of New Testament and Greek at Campbellsville University and a visiting professor of New Testament Interpretation at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.
