Aspects of Love

Our Maker’s design for friendship, love, marriage and family

William Philip

The God-Centered Preacher

Developing A Pulpit Ministry Approved by God

Robert L. Reymond

"I found this book a very stimulating read. The first chapter alone offers immense encouragement to the preacher, buttressing confidence in the 'mere words' of Scripture to communicate the truth of God with power, and those following issue a much-needed call for robust theology, truly biblical evangelism, and genuine piety in the pulpit."

Bible Overview

Steve Levy and Paul Blackham

"With an evident love for the task, and with a delightfully light touch, Steve Levy wants to show us the glory of Christ and with plenty of fun along the way!"

Truth and Love

In a Sexually Disordered World

David Searle

"An alternative title for this book might have been: Sex—handle with care! Sex has brought immense happiness to countless millions but it has also dealt sorrow and heartache to just as many. It need not, and it should not; hence this little book. In it the contributors present lucidly, and without need for apology, our Maker's instructions on how to handle one of the most wonderful gifts he has given to us—our human sexuality. If we will trust his guidance, we shall find it really is the way to lasting fulfilment and greatest joy."

World-proof Your Kids

Raising Children Unstained by the World

Timothy A. Sisemore and Ruth Sisemore

"Dr Sisemore's clear, biblical theology is the anvil that has shaped and informed his own professional practice in child psychology. Avoiding the sentimentality of so much contemporary thinking, he is utterly realistic about the falleness of human nature, yet equally sure of the richness of book personally, and as a pastor I reccomend it warmly to all who want to nurture children in the true gospel faith. Digested and applied, it will help us to bring our children for Christ in a hostile world as he wants us to - in faith not fear."

The House that Jesus Built

A Welcome to the Church

Dale Ralph Davis

"I can't imagine anything better [than this book] for teaching what it means to belong to The House that Jesus Built - to new Christians who don't yet understand the church (and older ones who ought to!). Ralph Davis is a good friend, and a great Bible teacher. Once again he has come up with a gem for us with this little manual on the church. Biblical, succinct, clear, fun and, above all, brief."

Why I am not an Atheist

Facing the Inadequacies of Unbelief

David J. Randall

For the many honest, open-minded sceptics who do want to reasonably weigh all the evidence, this book will be thought-provoking, stimulating and perhaps even life-changing.

Teaching Ruth & Esther

Christopher Ash

The book begins with a brief, but very helpful, chapter on How to Read Old Testament Stories, and proceeds to exemplify this exquisitely as the reader is led through the contrastingly beautiful and disturbing dramas of Ruth and Esther. Christopher’s characteristic mastery of textual detail married with theological clarity and richness is always stimulating, and preachers who want to apply the wealth of God’s grace and comfort from these ancient Christian Scriptures will find much here to help them do so.

The Duty of a Disciple

Is Evangelism Outdated?

Bernard V. Palmer

This is a book I want our whole church to read,
because it is about the great commission which unites Christians together as the church: sharing the good news of our Lord Jesus Christ. Yet, in the West at least, we seem to struggle with great hesitancy in sharing the gospel personally. Drawing from a lifetime experience of sharing Jesus in his professional work as a surgeon, and in personal encounters everywhere, Bernard Palmer’s wonderfully readable book will help greatly.  Read it, and you will find it hard not to be encouraged by the infectiously passionate heart he displays and equipped by the invaluable practical help he offers. 

Transforming Preaching

Reflecting on 50 Years of Word Ministry

David Jackman

This book draws together a host of themes and vital questions for preachers and would–be preachers, addressing them with the thoroughgoing biblical understanding and deep pastoral wisdom so many of us admire in David.
… there are few whose insights are so valuable to those who would follow him in this task.
