Christian Focus

Finally Alive

John Piper

"Theologically thorough and yet heart-warmingly pastoral and practical, this important book should help God's people to value the remarkable status and responsibility of being ‘born again.'"

Persistently Preaching Christ

Fifty years of Bible ministry in a Cambridge church

Mary Davis

"The godly character and faithful ministry of these two remarkable men shines through the pages. Both of them shunned personal glory and empire-building for the love of their Lord and the building of his kingdom."

The Pleasures of God

Meditations on God's Delight in being God

John Piper

This book is breathtaking in both its scope and its focus and constitutes a joyful yet prophetic call to adore and worship God - whose infinite worth and excellence is revealed in what he loves and delights in. It is at once beautiful and moving, serious, stretching and profound. The Pleasures of God surely ranks with J I Packer's Knowing God as one of the most profoundly moving and world-view forming Christian books of modern times.

Read Mark Learn: Luke Vol. 2

A Small Group Bible Study

William Taylor

Read Mark Learn (RML) is surely the benchmark for group Bible study and William Taylor’s second Luke volume reminds us just how high the RML standard is. It provides a complete tool box for those aiming at serious engagement with the text. Context, main themes, structure, aim and focused application support the suggested study questions. I can’t imagine there is anything else in the publishing world that could match this.

The Duty of a Disciple

Is Evangelism Outdated?

Bernard V. Palmer

This is one of the most refreshing and somehow discomforting books I have read in ages. This is infectious and important stuff and I am determined to read it with my local Christian friends to see if we can become infected and effective.

Teaching Mark

From Text to Message

Robin Sydserff

Teaching Mark bears the unmistakeable marks of many years of study, reflection and preaching by someone who has really got Mark into his bloodstream and is desirous to do the same for his readers.

This distillation process has produced a wonderful gift to the church. Whether the reader is primarily a Bible teacher, trainer of others or an evangelist, there is so much here to nourish, rejuvenate and re–focus our ministry; I recommend it unreservedly.

Liberated

How the Bible Exalts and Dignifies Women

Karen Soole

Liberated is a thoroughly biblical exploration of a difficult subject and brings a heady blend of warmth, humour and brutal candor. … This is an important apologetic that the church needs to read and reflect upon carefully, if we are to convince a watching world that ultimate dignity and flourishing is to be found in following Jesus of Nazareth.

Heart Songs for Every Saint

Engaging with God Through Times of Darkness & Light

William J. U. Philip

Following a splendid introduction to the Psalter, this marvellous little book exemplifies the very qualities it identifies in the Psalms. As it takes us through Psalms of protest, penitence, pain, promise pilgrimage and – finally – praise, I found
‘my imagination, stirred my emotions excited and my intellect fed’. It is a wonderful blend of raw human experience, intelligent contemporary insight, and good, old–fashioned heart–warming piety. What a lovely book to own, read and give away liberally.
