Hodder & Stoughton The Hardest Problem
Book SynopsisTo many, the problem of evil and suffering constitutes by far the most serious objection to mainstream religious belief. For all its starkness and salience, though, the dilemma is also widely misinterpreted. That visceral feelings often dominate discussion is understandable on one level. But this can displace the clearer-headed thinking needed to shed greater light on the subject. In this brief but broad-ranging book, Rupert Shortt shows that belief in a divine Creator is much more coherent intellectually than many sceptics suppose. Basic misconceptions about core aspects of Judaism, Christianity and Islam can in turn spawn still greater caricatures of subjects including divine power. Having cleared the ground, Shortt goes on to discuss the nature of evil from a classical Abrahamic standpoint and how Christian resources in particular offer guidance in an area where raw emotion, conceptual thTrade ReviewRupert Shortt is clear and incisive in this new work of theodicy -- Iain McGilchrist'One of the most cogent writers of our day' -- Peter Sedgwick'Beguiling' -- Julia Neuberger'Deep theological knowledge and spiritual discernment' -- John Barton'Wise, informed and immensely thoughtful' -- Alister McGrathA stunning challenge to the casual atheism of our age -- Angela TilbyHis arguments are powerful -- Bishop Erik VardenThe book succeeds in presenting a reasoned case for holding fast to the reality of God, as Christianity understands it, and not shirking from the troubling existence of suffering. -- Mark Vernonintelligent and lucid -- Melanie McDonagha profoundly helpful book -- Timothy RadcliffeUnlike most participants in this lively debate, Rupert Shortt hasn't decided the answer before asking the question . . .

Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Finding the Language of Grace
Book SynopsisWell known for his appearances on TV and radio, as well as for his books Finding Sanctuary and Finding Happiness, Christopher Jamison once again shows his ability to communicate spiritual insights in an accessible way. Finding the Language of Grace: Rediscovering Transcendence focuses on the transcendent experiences of grace that we struggle to talk about in today's very business-like culture. Abbot Christopher shows how the ways we listen and speak, read and write can all be channels of grace. This is illustrated through books as diverse as the medieval legend of the Holy Grail, Silence by Japanese writer Shusaku Endo, the writings of Spanish mystics and the novels of Pulitzer Prize winner Marilynne Robinson. The power and the pain of grace resonate throughout the book, offering a new perspective on healing the loneliness and mistrust experienced by many, as well as on the turbulence and political extremes of today's world. How do we restore trust? HTrade ReviewChristopher Jamison demonstrates brilliantly how poetry and literature, whether St Teresa of Avila or Marilynne Robinson, open for us a language of grace, transforming how we listen and speak, read and write. * Timothy Radcliffe OP *This tender book is not only intellectually sound, but also deeply emotionally literate… You are in for a treat. * Baroness Sheila Hollins *Abbot Christopher’s gentle style and broad knowledge allow Finding the Language of Grace to serve as an approachable, practical companion in discovering how to articulate not only grace itself but the virtues that proceed from a deep understanding of grace in gratitude, deep love and most pertinently, hope. * Benedict Plimmer, Catholic Student Network *This brainy outing offers worthwhile insights. * Publishers Weekly *In this wide-ranging, accessible, and engaging work, [Jamison] explores the language of grace, which he believes to be in danger of dying out… [an] inspiring and energising book. * Church Times *Table of ContentsAcknowledgements Introduction Why transcendence?

Christian Focus Publications Ltd The Smile of Thy Love: A Collection of Quotes
Book SynopsisThis curated collection of material from Andrew Bonar is an ideal introduction to his work. Andrew Bonar was a nineteenth century Scottish minister who participated in many of the important ecclesiastical changes that happened between 1840 and 1890. He was a much–loved and highly admired man within the Scottish evangelical church. His words still challenge and encourage the Christian reader today. This short book includes a variety of material by and about Andrew Bonar, including: – a brief biography – a selection of his sayings – a pastoral letter to his congregation in Collace that he wrote from the Holy Land while on a visit there – a magazine article about visiting the sick – a sermon he preached on the love of the FatherTrade ReviewToday we need more Christians—and especially more pastors—whose love for God’s people flows out of their love for God himself. We need men with spiritual roots that deepen as they progress in their service to Christ. Andrew Bonar exemplified this. As God used him more widely, Bonar’s private devotion seems to have gone deeper. This brief biographical sketch, pastoral letter, and collection of quotes, introduces readers to a pastor who loved and cared for Christ’s church while drawing from a deep spiritual well of God’s love in Christ. -- Jonathan Master (President, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, South Carolina)… a lovely window onto 19th–century evangelical piety. Reading it will fuel your desire for holiness and your passion for the lost – all with the bonus of an excellent chapter on visiting the sick. -- Tim Chester (Author and senior faculty member, Crosslands Training)

Baker Publishing Group Good Baggage – How Your Difficult Childhood
Book SynopsisBaggage has gotten a bad rap. We think it's all bad. We think it makes us less likely to have good, healthy relationships today. But baggage isn't just the bad stuff that happened to us in the past. It's the lessons we've taken from the pain we carry. It's how what we've been through has actually made us stronger and more capable than we imagine. And it's how we're going to make our current relationships work. Far from minimizing past pain, pastor Ike Miller shows you how to go through the baggage you carry from a difficult childhood and pull out the good stuff. The intentionality you've developed. The empathy you've gained. The trust you value so highly. Miller shares from his own past in a dysfunctional family impacted by alcoholism and divorce, and his present as part of a healthy and loving family, to illustrate how to stop letting your past sabotage your present. You'll find no platitudes or pat answers here. Rather, you'll discover untapped riches of experience and knowledge you already have that can make your relationships thrive and change the course of your life and legacy.

Mango Media Fighting for Our Lives: The True Story of One
Book SynopsisTrue story of survivalMother and unborn child beat cancer through faith and determination One of the truly remarkable stories of faith and determination: At age 29, Heather Choate was diagnosed with breast cancer. She was ten weeks pregnant with her sixth child. Her unborn baby became victim to the fast-spreading and highly dangerous cancer in Heather’s body that already spread to her lymph nodes. Doctors told her she needed to abort her baby to save her life. Heather told them, “I’d rather die than take the life of my baby.” Heather and her husband set out to find a way to save both mother and baby. The journey pushed them to the fringes of their stamina, tested the strength of their familial relationships and found them clinging to their faith like it was the last bit of thread on a lifeline. Reading true stories of survival may change your life: We all have unexpected adversity in life. It’s those things that we think “will never happen to us.” It could be the loss of job, the birth of a special needs child, the downturn of the economy or an unexpected health challenge. Most of us would easily crumble under such circumstances, but Heather found that its not about what happens to you, its about what you do with it. You don’t have to almost die, to learn how to live and Heather shows us how. Despite adversity, nearly impossible challenges can be met, families can be strengthened and faith can sustain even the most desperate souls on their journey. She brings her role as cancer warrior into the real lives of readers, addressing topics that affect them most: dealing with doubt and insecurity, discovering who they really are, renewing their passion, negotiating family strife, releasing relentless regrets, succeeding against temptation, weathering their worst fears, pressing on against fatigue and illness, uprooting bitterness and more. Fighting for Our Lives will take you on a journey of self-examination and appreciation of the beauties of today, and the book could actually change your life. What you'll learn in Fighting for Our Lives: Don’t just survive challenges, thrive through them How to use your power of choice, because it’s not what happens to you that matters, its what you do about it Practical ways that faith sustains and strengthens How to deal with doubt and insecurity Best ways to release negativity and find forgiveness How to trust your inner voice

Book SynopsisHave you ever experienced conflict between what your head and your heart were telling you to do? Have you struggled to reach agreement with others when making a group decision, or regretted a major decision and had to live with the consequences? Have you ever found it difficult to be sure of God’s will in a particular situation? If so, you’re in very good company. Everybody makes decisions – all the time. Are there ‘5 simple steps’ to the right decision? No, there aren’t. Should you stop thinking about it and ‘just do something’? No, you shouldn’t. But could you expect God to share with you his will and purpose, giving you clues and directions in a way you can understand? Yes, you could. Iain Dunbar and Peter Wilkinson share their own decision-making history (even the dodgy stuff) and encourage you to look honestly at yours. Borrowing from the world of coaching, they help you evaluate your decision-making to date and develop new and better habits and practices with God at the centre.
