LOOKING TOWARDS 2021 2020 has been an unprecedented year and has brought many challenges, both personal and commercial. As we all continue to navigate this time of trial, we believe that the need for good Christian books and resources that encourage people’s hearts are needed more than ever. Our prayer is that these new titles for 2021 will do just that and that you’ll find something inside that will inspire and strengthen you and your customers. Our new Lent devotional by Tim Chester brings together writings and prayers from some of the great Christian writers of the past, many of whom faced trials much greater than our own. Their heart-warming words exalt the grace and glory of Christ’s work, and will encourage and inspire readers as much today as when they were first written.
Children’s books have proved resilient in terms of sales during the pandemic, and we’ve got a number of new titles which we’re excited about. The Easter Fix is an engaging retelling of the Easter story that will help pre-schoolers understand why Jesus died and came alive again. The God Contest is the latest in our popular Tales That Tell The Truth series for 3-6-year olds and tells the story of Elijah on Mount Carmel before moving to the empty tomb to see the greatest victory of all. And for 4-8-year-olds, we are pleased to present a new series of inspiring biographies, starting with Corrie Ten Boom and Betsey Stockton, who, despite being born a slave, follows her dream of being a missionary. We remain thankful for each of you and wish you every blessing in Christ,

BE HOSPITABLE WITHOUT FEELING OVERBURDENED Generous hospitality is a significant way in which God works through our lives to bring life to others, yet many of us feel illequipped and overwhelmed at the prospect, especially if we don’t have big houses and we are not wonderful cooks! Carolyn Lacey encourages us to focus on the goal of hospitality, which is to reflect God’s welcoming heart, and shows us how we can all do that, regardless of our bank balance or living situation. She explores seven ways in which we can reflect God’s character in the way that we welcome others into our homes and into our lives, and so point people ultimately to Christ. Paperback | 128pp | ISBN: 9781784985745 | £7.99 Carolyn Lacey is a writer, speaker and pastor’s wife. She serves alongside her husband, Richard, in Worcester, UK, and teaches regularly at women’s events.
