Breakout
$23.99Breakout is the story of one church’s discovery of a Spirit empowered, New Testament model of church.
It is an honest, inspiring testimony to the truth that the Gospel of Jesus still maintains its life-changing power and God’s people still have it in them to change the world.
St Andrew’s Chorleywood has been at the forefront of church renewal for over three
decades. In the last five years, it has seen substantial growth as the congregation has moved from drawing people to one place, to a model in which well over a thousand believers have been sent out in mission-shaped communities of up to 50 members, meeting in school halls, community centres, coffee shops and other contexts.This daring move has resulted in the raising up of over a hundred new leaders, a massive release of spiritual gifts, great vision and creativity in outreach, and major growth through evangelism.

Angels Walking Among Us
$14.99Tragedy and brokenness often take a person to the bottom of life to where they may then choose to look up to God for assistance and may thus be able to see the results of God moving in a particular situation. This book takes the reader from having a life-changing experience when meeting Jesus, through a tragic helicopter crash, to seeing ministering angels, to taking a trip to heaven, to a particular whirlwind and to a heavenly light lighting a dark path. Several key scriptures taken from the book of Matthew are presented as “keys to the Kingdom of Heaven,” using the Geneva Bible, which until recently, had been lost from the Christian world for nearly four hundred years. The Geneva Bible, which was the Bible used by our first pilgrims in the United States had a more personal and narrower approach to the Kingdom of Heaven.

Sky Is Always There
$23.99In April 1997-98 Camilla Carr and Jon James set off as volunteers in a 500 Lada stacked high with toys, games, footballs, paints and a parachute. Their destination was Chechnya and their aim was to work with children who had been traumatised by war. After working for two months setting up and teaching in a rehabilitation centre and watching the children begin to smile and play again, they were kidnapped by Chechen guerrillas. There followed fourteen months of incarceration in homes that varied from a concrete box with no natural light or fresh air, to a pink trompe la oeil bedroom via a sauna and various cellars. They experienced everything from rape and mental torture to moments of compassion and kindness. They survived by using tools such as tai chi, yoga, meditation and humour; and through creating a dialogue with their captors, looking beneath their masks of fear and anger to reach the small flame of love and laughter unquenched by the demonising nature of war.

Being Well When Were Ill
$18.00Marva Dawn has an insider’s view of the many spiritual, intellectual, emotional, social, and physical difficulties encountered by people with chronic illness and disabilities. She knows from experience how to nurture wholeness and hope in spite of infirmity.

For each issue she explores, such as loss of dreams, loneliness, physical pain, depression, ingratitude, side effects and more, Dawn includes discussions of biblical texts – not only texts that help lament losses but texts that bring wholeness.

Earthy Mysticism : Spirituality For Unspiritual People
$19.99This book, says the author, is “a testimony of narratives where [a] strange God appears. Such appearances supply the mystical states that have come to shape my life. I am not helped much by conventional approaches to spirituality. I find it almost impossible to do ‘devotions.’ Daily Bible study in the sense of devoting twenty to thirty minutes a day never worked for me. I cannot get around to scheduled times for prayer on my knees with head bowed. I find labyrinths and prayer beads boring. I am ever and again distracted in silent meditation. I simply cannot sustain a spirituality based in such things.
“I do not regard myself as unusual or special. My hunch, and it is more than that, is that a host of people will recognize themselves in what I describe here. What is here is, clearly, my story, but it is not about me. It is about a God of surprises, of One who comes in the ordinary and the seamy. It is about a God who will goose you. It is about mystical moments when clearly the only thing that finally matters is this God who will never leave us alone, especially in the ordinary and angular places of life. It is, I hope, a spirituality for unspiritual people.”Add to cartin stock within 3-5 days of online purchase

Through Julians Window
$16.00Like her 14th century predecessor Julian of Norwich, Sr Elizabeth lives as a solitary attached to a religious community. Like Julian, she is available to all who come for help, advice or direction. In Julian’s cell were three windows – one looking into the sanctuary of the church, one opening on to a secluded garden where she could attend to her own physical needs and a third where she conversed with all who came for help. Sr Elizabeth relates the three different aspects of these windows to the three things that Julian desired of God – contrition, compassion and longing for God. So deeply did she desire these qualities that she asked God to ‘wound’ her with them, but they became gifts of healing for herself and for others. Through contrition she learned her limitations and her need of others, compassion enabled her to become an effective spiritual guide and in longing for God she found purpose and meaning for her whole life.

God Reflected : Metaphors For Life
$26.00When a loved one dies, somebody inevitably says the death was God’s will. The same claim is made when a person is cured of cancer. In a war, both sides often argue that they are carrying out God’s will. Faithful people search for God’s will for their lives, especially when they are faced with a decision, such as which job to take or whether to have another child. What is meant by God’s will? How does God act? What is the character of the God whose will is expressed in and through our lives? This book answers these questions in relation to a broadly Christian perspective.
Based on the traditional premise that everything we assert about God is metaphorical, this wonderfully written book presents a range of ways to imagine the nature of God and of God’s power and will: from a personal but distant God who is fully in charge and in control, through more gentle and engaged images of God, and ultimately to a non-personal view of God as the energy for life in the universe. Each perspective offers distinct images for God and for the way in which God’s will operates; each is assessed for its strengths and weaknesses. With deep insight and clear, inspiring writing, Keshgegian ultimately offers a way to imagine God and power that redefines the whole idea of God’s will.

Prelude To Holy Ghost Fire
$16.99This book is part of my healing journey back to wholeness. It is my story, having left my upper middle class upbringing to live with my first boyfriend in 1967 shortly after I graduated from high school. We legally married, but my boyfriend removed the words, “till death do us part” from the ceremony. Thus, he justified full sexual exploitation of me. While he was a conscientious objector to the Vietnam War, my then husband abandoned me to a hippie commune in Berkeley, California, two months after our first son was born in1972. I have been through fire. In 2000 during my first session with a psychiatrist, he jumped from his chair and said, “See, you have depression, and you have had it most of your life.” I did not agree then, but I do now. I had no sense of it, none. As we began to work together and my story unfolded, it became clear that I had it “all”; Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), Complex PTSD, Dissociative Identity Disorder, Major Depressive Disorder and/or deep emotional wounding. I didn’t seek help for 30 years. I worked full time, attempted to raise children and swept my life under the rug. No matter how bad it was for me, I just kept going until one day I couldn’t do it anymore. I began to collapse. I had to face the truth about my life. I had been treated worse than an abandoned, abused animal. I learned that you can run, but you can’t hide. If God is going to save you, He is going to do it, no matter who you are, what you have been through, where you have been, how you treat yourself and what other people say, do or think.

Once Blind : Print On Demand Title
$32.99IVP Print On Demand Title
This biography of the writer of Amazing Grace takes us on a journey worthy of a Hollywood extravaganza with swashbuckling adventures on the high seas coupled with the horrors of the slave trade. Once Blind retells Newton’s conversion during a crushing storm no one expected to survive and then the most unusual years that followed as an evangelical clergyman with the Church of England during which he was known for his ability to bridge gaping theological chasms.
In the end, John Newton risked his reputation, his wife’s emotional well-being, even his cherished right to preach-all so that he could bear witness to the horrors he had witnessed and had participated in, and to help bring about laws that would stop the slave trade.
This is indeed a timely book as we mark the 200th anniversary of the laws that set in motion the end of 18th century slavery, for God’s grace is every bit as amazing today as it was in Newton’s era.

Called For Life
$31.00Called for Life reflects on our calling to serve God and neighbor in the context of retirement. People facing retirement ask a variety of questions, each framed by a different perspective. “Will I ever be interested in retiring?” some baby boomers ask. “Who am I now?” newly retired clergy ask. “What, if anything, is God calling me to do and be after retirement?” all inquire.
This book is built on the assumption that most people don’t want to spend the last third of their lives doing nothing. What they want is a life that is worth living, an occupation that will help others, a retirement in which they can continue to exercise their calling. Clayton uses examples from his own experience and from others, laity and clergy, to explore retirement and the three components of our calling: our identity, our gifts, and our occupation. He also examines the role of community in our calling and retirement; the challenges of the transition into retirement; options for meaningful activity; the importance of identifying our purpose; doing and being in retirement; and the final call to death. Readers will be encouraged to see retirement as an opportunity to do what they have always wanted to do and to become the kind of person they have wanted to be.

Tales And Prayers For New Life In Christ
$15.95What is a story? Is it simple communication, a way to relay information about an event? Is there more to a story than that? In fact, stories are powerful. They not only inspire our imagination, but they also serve as a connection with our past, preserving core events in our history. Stories can create a feeling of community, bonding people together in a common history. They reveal truths to us that would otherwise remain hidden. Sometimes we cannot grasp a notion until it is revealed in a story. From the story of our birth to our newspaper obituary, stories are the fabric of our lives.
It is no wonder that Jesus taught us using parables, defined in the introduction as “simple translations of the unfathomable word of God into human language.” Like other stories in our lives, Jesus’ parables offer humanity hope and enlightenment. Consequently, stories have pervaded our worship of God, the master storyteller. Through sermons, prayers, and hymns, the grand tale of God’s relationship with humanity is retold every Sunday.
It is in this spirit that Tales and Prayers for New Life in Christ is given. Each story, complete with a synopsis, a link to the liturgical calendar, and a corresponding scripture, offers us a glimpse into the mystery of life and faith. These stories, including “Angie,” “Bullpen Mud,” and “A Vision of Peace,” can be used in sermons, small group discussions, or even as a complement to personal prayer and reflection. It is suitable for congregations, families, friends, and individuals. Let each tale lay down the foundation on which you create a story of your own.

This book is also a passionate testimony to the Lord’s eagerness to cleanse and heal those who turn to Him. And it is a fervent appeal to God’s people to own up to the sin, brokenness, and shame in our midst and to extend to each other the same persistent, healing grace that Jesus extends to us.

Master Gardener
$13.49The Master Gardener is a lively, modern-day parable about a surprise visitor who shows up within the high and impenetrable walls of a lonely gardener whose life is plagued with fear and loneliness. Through a series of teachable-moments that the visitor uses as opportunities of instruction, the gardener finds that what is happening within his struggling garden is but a reflection of his tumultuous emotions. The surprise visitor patiently and kindly shows the gardener how to deal with the troubling issues of life while also teaching him how to perfectly care for his natural garden. The Master Gardener offers the humor and whimsy of an allegory, the insight of ageless wisdom, and the vivid symbolism of Christ’s love for us and His desire to be involved in every aspect of our lives. Laura Dahne and her husband Jim reside in South Florida where they enjoy doing ministry together. Laura’s passions are her family, photography and teaching on the magnificence of God.

In addition to this work she has written several devotionals and currently authors a newsletter entitled, “The She Papers…The Passionate Ramblings of a Woman Crazy for God.” Laura knows first-hand the desperate need for inner healing and how our lives become transformed when Jesus is invited into our hurts and hearts. Laura does inspirational speaking engagements out of a sincere desire to see God’s women get set free and be wholly healed by a Holy God. Laura is currently ‘mulling over’ her next book, Broken Winged Eagles, a book on helping those who grieve. She can be contacted at TheShePapers@aol.com.
