A fresh start
John Chapman
With all the honesty and humour for which he is famous, John Chapman tells in "A Fresh Start" what God has done about the state of our fallen world.Something is terribly wrong- with our world, with our relationships, with us. We all sense this at different times. But is there anything we can do about it?
With all the honesty and humour for which he is famous, John Chapman tells in "A Fresh Start" that God has done something about it. We read about: just what God has done for us through his son, Jesus; how we can know it is true; what the alternatives are; and what we should do about it.
If you have been searching for a book that simply and clearly explains what it means to be a Christian, either for your own or another's benefit, your search is over.

Ten Boys Who Used their Talents
Irene Howat
What can you do for God?
These ten boys grew up to become successful men. The two things they have in common is that they all put to good use the talents and gifts they had, and they all believed that God had given them to be used.
Paul Brand took medicine into new lands to bring hope to the sick, Ghillean Prance's love of the world around him led to Kew Gardens, still a centre of excellence in studying God's creation,
C S Lewis opened the door into Narnia and opened the hearts of many to new faith; C T Studd excelled on the cricket and the mission field; Wilfred Grenfell was an energetic explorer of the Arctic; J S Bach's music still inspires millions, as Christ inspired him; James Clerk Maxwell's faith in God's ordering of the universe led to key discoveries in science; Samuel Morse patented many inventions one of which has saved many lives; George Washington governed a country as he followed the Lord; John Bunyan was imprisoned to shut him up yet wrote a classic that still speaks today.
Irene Howat is an accomplished children's and adults writer and has many titles to her name. She is married to a minister and they have a grown up family. She is also a talented artist and lives in Argyle, Scotland. She especially enjoys letters from children and replies to all of them!

2 ways to
Phillip Jensen & Tony Payne
The message at the heart of Christianity is really quite simple-simple enough to be outlined in this little 20 page, full colour booklet. It is a message from the Bible about God and his Son Jesus. It is about life and death, and the choice that we all face.
"2 Ways to Live" is well known throughout the UK and overseas as a simple, clear, challenging outline of the Christian gospel. It has been learnt, personalized and used by thousands of Christians to explain the message of Jesus.
"2 Ways to Live: the choice we all face" clearly and lucidly explains the gospel using the framework of "2 Ways to Live". An easy-going style, attractive layout and lack of jargon make this an effective evangelistic leaflet for a multitude of uses - from letterbox drops to simply giving to friends.
