Book SynopsisEschatology is often thought of as describing the 'end of the world' or 'end times'. Yet many have begun to conclude that the restoration of all things is an inevitable consequence of who God really is as Love, encouraging them to look to the future with optimistic anticipation and expectation. Isaiah prophesied no end to the increase of God's government and peace, so why are believers still looking for an end? Mike Parsons examines the reasons for this confusion, exposing the 'Great Deception' that lies behind it, and proposing instead a 'happy eschatology' in which all of God's children can recognise and fulfil their eternal destiny.Table of ContentsIntroduction; 1.

Book SynopsisCreation is groaning: it is out of tune with the harmony of heaven and longing for the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 'Sons Arise!' is the cry from the Father's heart to unveil, reveal, and release His children into their full and glorious identity and inheritance as mature sons and daughters of God. This first book in the series leads the reader into engaging the Father in intimacy as His beloved son or daughter. Through personal testimony, insightful explanation and guided activations, Mike Parsons demonstrates how everyone can experience the joy of living their daily life in intimacy with God and, like Jesus, only doing the things they see the Father doing.Table of ContentsIntroduction to Sons Arise!; Sons Arise!; Engage in the Earth Realm; Engage in Dimensions Within; Engage in Heavenly Realms; Depth of the Father's Heart; God is Love; Relational Intimacy; The Joshua Generation; A Good Report; Fire Stones; Times of Refreshing; Four Faces of God; Engage in Eternity; The Court of the Lord; The Order of Melchizedek; Sons Arise!; Further resources; Acknowledgements

Book SynopsisWidely regarded as one of the most amusing ecclesiastical memoirs of the 20th century, Colin Stephenson's autobiography is an Anglo-Catholic classic, embodying a great love for people and a relish for their eccentricities and foibles. The heady peaks of Tractarian glories between the wars decidedly shaped Colin Stephenson's preferences. Young and impressionable, he revelled in the rich ceremonial of continental Catholicism in all its triumphal self-assurance. As an inexperienced naval chaplain in the Second World War, he set about installing baroque altars on warships, despite the 'violent firmness' with which certain admirals and captains reacted. Such encounters delighted him and many episodes are stories told against himself. After the war, and despite serious injury, he returned to Oxford and created the 'highest church in the city', before succeeding Alfred Hope Patten as Guardian of the Shrine of Our Lady at Walsingham, where he found plenty to satisfy his appetite for the oddities of high Anglicanism. 'It may be a trivial record', he writes, 'but I hope it is illuminated by love and I think I have made myself as ridiculous as anyone.'

Book SynopsisIn 1913 Ada Moore rode her pony along the ancient trade route from Srinagar to Leh, in Ladakh, to join the Moravian Mission there. This was the end of a journey which began in a laundry in Scarborough ten years before and the beginning of an extraordinary thirteen years living and working amongst the Tibetan people of this remote part of India. Ada's daughter, Monica, was born near the Tibetan border. Her book describes living high in the Himalayas in the first half of the 20th century. It gives a rare insight into the domestic and professional life of the missionaries who, from running a school to giving medical help in the most primitive conditions, were involved with the lives of the local people, and who worked to build a connection between different cultures. It tells what they learnt of local customs and beliefs and recounts their hair-raising adventures while travelling by yak and pony amongst some of the most beautiful and dramatic scenery in the world.
