The Grace Outpouring - £7.99

Every now and then along comes a book which surprises you and births a deeper hunger for God in you.   This is one of those books.  It is the story of Roy and Daphne Godwin who followed God’s guidance to become Wardens at a small retreat centre in Wales called Ffald-y-Brenin.  For Roy it was a time of apparent wilderness when he felt out of his comfort zones and far from the sphere of evangelism which was his first love.  However, the Holy Spirit began to bring people to this quiet place in the hills and on this site they met with the living God.  Far from it being dependent upon Roy’s ability to share the Gospel of Christ, the transformation of lives was through simply praying the prayer of blessing over people as they entered the little chapel and leaving them alone with God.  The responses were amazing.  This short book will stimulate your faith and restore your faith in a God who changes lives, not through our words, but through our desire to be a blessing to all.

The North Face of God - Hope for the times when God seems indifferent - £12.99

In the midst of adversity, God can seem distant, cold, and strangely silent ? an Everest of indifference. When we come to him with our questions and our doubts, sometimes it seems we are climbing the North Face of Mount Everest, scaling unstable rock. As we scale the frozen slopes of suffering and hardship, we need others to climb alongside us, to help us along the way. In this honest and penetrating look at the problems of suffering and pain, Ken Gire offers perspective, hope, and encouragement for the climb

The Rainbow of Renewal - Daily Bible reflections for Lent and Easter - £7.99

?Lent is a very good time to take a step back and make space for God to do his renewing work in us. Traditionally this season of the Church?s year has been connected with Jesus? journey into the wilderness, from which he returned to begin his ministry in Galilee, in the power of the Spirit. We too have the opportunity to be led by the Spirit into a desert place, a place of vulnerability and dependence on God? from such a place we too can return to our Galilees in the power of the Spirit.?
This book of Bible reflections explores how the transforming power of God, through the work of the Holy Spirit, can bring renewal to each one of us. Different aspects of renewal are linked to colours of the rainbow, because rainbows are the essence of light and when the white light of God is projected through the prism of our lives, all the colours of renewal are revealed. Each day?s reading consists of a Bible passage, comment, a point for reflection, and a prayer. Also included are suggestions for using the book with groups.

The Wedding Feast - £8.99

Hospitality is "the space in which change is possible."  So says Russ Parker in the foreword of this reflective book.

This revealing set of meditations looks at how the serious scholar of the ordinary seeker after truth may encounter Jesus through the record of the meals He shared and the people He fed, and the emphasis He gave to the hospitality which all receive and give.

Each Biblical reference used helps the reader to understand the spirtual hunger of those who would follow Jesus, as well as the re-issuing of the invitation to share His hospitality and then pass it on to others.

The questions and refelctions at the end of each chapter enable a digestion of the content and so prefigure the celebration of hte Wedding Feast, where all shall be welcome and all shall be fed.

Margaret Doak is founder and formerly Director of SHALOM (a centre of Christian healing, wholeness and counselling) in Maidstone, Kent.

The Wild Spirit - £6.99

An invitation to step into the open spaces where the wind of God's Spirit is blowing. It demonstrates that renewal is not a hobby for Christians to enjoy in privacy, but means being driven out on the Cavalry road, public rejection, private struggles, and an encounter with the wonder of God.
