Living Life Right

The book we are looking at this week, is What's It All About Alphy: The Lord's Prayer

Alphy the WOWChurch Cat explores the depths of what we call the Lord's Prayer! It is probably the most known Christian prayer in the world! But how many people really understand what they are praying when they say it? Let Alphy the WOWChurch Cat help you understand this amazing prayer more.
It is a great book for those just learning about Christianity, as well as comprehensive enough to challenge mature saints. This is the Large Print Edition! It is also available as a regular edition and on Kindle! In this adventure, will Alphy find something that is a reminder to you? Or indeed, will Alphy discover something new for you? Mee-WOW! Words are for adults, but the full colour illustrations can be used to explain the prayer to children! Great for family learning times together!

Review 1: "I received my books this week and I was very impressed with the layout of it. The illustrations and colours chosen, make the words come to life as you read it. I was captured with how well the writer has explained this age old prayer in modern day simple language. It's a great book that I believe will appeal to all ages and walks of life and the illustrations not only capture children's interest, but they actually help adults to understand what all the different parts of The Lord's Prayer actually means . I would by more books explaining the bible done in this way most definitely."

Review 2: "This book has everything anyone who loves God & wants to learn more of the Bible, the illustrations are clear & concise, matching the text opposite exactly. The font of the text is clear well-spaced & easy to read. The book appeals to both adults & children, an added bonus is it's perfect format for anyone with learning disabilities.
The content of the book is very scripturally sound, & has helped me a Christian of many years to understand more about the Lord Prayer & of its importance in our Christian lives."

Review 3: "I absolutely love this book! The font is so clear and easy to read, being large and double spaced, with fantastic original graphics that help aid understanding for children and adults alike, and aid re-telling too. Perfect for a Sunday School lesson, or even a whole series of lessons.
Also great as a gift for families whose children attend the Sunday School to make learning the Lord's prayer easier to remember and fun to learn at home. Is great for adults with learning difficulties. Going to suggest buying some for a literacy class. I don't like cat's usually, but I love Alphy! Go on, buy it, you won't be disappointed!"

Review 4: "Loved this fun to read book explaining the Lord's Prayer scriptures of the Bible. Dave Roberts has an amazing talent for making God's Word come alive with his easy to read and easy to understand writing. I highly recommend this book and this author. Dave has had over 4 million hits on his online writings and podcasts."

Glimpses Into Leviticus

The book we are looking at this week is Glimpses Into Leviticus: a book of Joy. (part of the "Glimpses Into" series)

Leviticus is perhaps the most maligned, misunderstood and under-read book of the Bible today.

Andrew Bonar once said: "There is no book that contains more of the very words of God than Leviticus. It is God that is the direct speaker in almost every page; his gracious words are recorded in the form wherein they were uttered."

How are we to read this amazing book? Leviticus does have important things to tell us about God, sin, obedience and holiness. Perhaps most importantly it tells of God wanting to live with His people. Some of the words and phrases we commonly use in the English language, come straight from the book of Leviticus. Come! Let us glimpse into this marvellous book of the Bible together - Leviticus the book of joy! Why do I call it a book of joy? One reason is that it reveals a God who wants to live with His people. For other reasons, you will have to look inside and read it to discover why!

Here is what 1 Amazon reviewer said: "5 stars! A theological view of Leviticus as opposed to c]the view it is an archaic 'laundry list'. Whether you agree with some of the conclusions or not, it will help you want to delve deeper, think more deeply about this often avoided book."

Exploring Islam with David Combes

The media can deliver much of our experience and understanding of the Islamic faith from far reaching locations across the world. However, the tragedy of this is for most us who do not know Muslims personally, we commonly paint them with the same brush, assume that they are all ‘out to get us’ or seem so different and unknown that we avoid them.

This little book attempts to fill in some potential gaps and maybe even correct some misunderstandings concering Islam, all done in the spirit that ‘loving our neighbour’ includes those of a different faith or ethnic origin.

Here is what 3 reviewers said:
Review 1: There are plenty of lengthy books about Islam, and about the contrasts and comparisons with Christian beliefs, but this is a refreshingly short and informative book. I found the key verses helpful to read and I enjoyed the section about the history of Islam. David's passion and heart for Muslim people comes through the book and I would recommend this as introductory reading for anyone who is interested in learning more.

Review 2: Exploring Islam is a fantastic little book. The Ideal introductory book for any Christian who wants to learn about the complex world of Islam. Exploring Islam lays out the fundamental doctrines of Islam, as well as noting similarities and differences between the two faiths in an easy to read concise format. Great work!

Review 3: At first I was reluctant to read this book, felt why should I learn about Islam, I enjoyed the book helped me to understand the Muslims I meet.

Dear Christian - Get a good grip

The book we are looking at this week, is Dear Christian - Get a good grip: Basic studies about God and following Him.

Here is what one reviewer said:

Down to Earth and packs all the punches we need to get a grip on what's important! Excellent series of books. Highly recommended.

Are you a Christian Disciple? Fabulous! How well do you know the God you follow? God has a grip on you, but how good is your grip on Him? Are you holding on to Him by just your fingernails? Or do you have a good firm grip on His hand, just as a baby grips onto the hand of their father? As Christian Disciples, we are only just beginning to know what it means that God became human. When on that moment the holy & sinless God, chose to enter human history and became man. Why? So that humans could choose for themselves to be in a relationship with God or not, accepting freely that they are ransomed, healed, restored and forgiven.

Yet in our modern Western Civilisation, the Church in places has forgotten this. It is time for the Church to once again go back to basics, to be reminded of them if necessary, to get their collective hands dirty and echo the God they claim to follow. Are you ready to learn not just about God but also why?

In these studies we look together at:

• Why Study God?
• Who is God?
• God as Trinity
• God the Father
• God the Son
• God the Holy Spirit
• God, Humans and Life
• A Tale of 4 Disciples
• What is a Disciple?
• Goal of a Disciple
• Living as a Disciple
• Growing as a Disciple
• The Cross and the Disciple

An Ambassador in God's Orchestra of Joy

An Ambassador is an official and accredited representative of their own sovereign state to another place or country. The Ambassador speaks not for themselves but represents the ideals, thoughts and actions of the one who sent them and with their authority.All Christians, as Disciples of Jesus Christ, are Ambassadors for Jesus Christ into the world in which we live.

Therefore throughout this book, we use both words, Ambassador and Disciple, in relation to the Christian. As Ambassadors for Jesus Christ, we are to be His representatives here on earth. We are His Church, which is an Orchestra of Joy.The Christian Ambassador has a joyous message to present to people about how people can be reconciled with God. A message to all people, of all nations, of all time, without favouritism or corruption.

As Christian Ambassadors, we are sent by our Lord Jesus Christ, into the world, in order to live our lives for Him and Him alone. Inside this book, we look at 6 main characteristics of the life of the Christian Ambassador:

1. The Ambassador's Identification // 2. The Ambassador's Message

3. The Ambassador’s New Life // 4. The Ambassador's Serving Life

5. The Ambassador’s Devotional Life // 6. The Ambassador's Uncompromising Life

The Disciple of Jesus Christ, the Christian, is God's Ambassador, as exhorted by the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 5:20-21:

20 We are therefore Christ’s Ambassadors, as though God were making His appeal through us. We implore you on Christ’s behalf: be reconciled to God. 21 God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might become the righteousness of God.

Jesus Who?

The title "Jesus Who?" was a question put to me by my father many years ago. He was asking me which Jesus I was talking about. The Jesus of Islam? The Jesus of the Anglicans or the Jesus of the Baptists? The Jesus of the imagination?

In this little book, we look at who I think Jesus was and is... It acts as a brief introduction to the greatest man who ever lived: Jesus Christ. Who was he? Why does he matter? What has he got to do with each of us? Jesus Christ. The name which is on everybody's lips at Christmas. But who was this man and so what? When the human we know as Jesus Christ was born, his name imbued the very reason he was born. His conception and birth were extraordinary at every level. Jesus very name, means “one who saves” and the entirety of his birth, life and death were centred on this very role. His role was to save all those who would follow Him.

Almost everyone has an opinion about Him. Jesus was born to confirm God's promises, to reveal God as a loving Father, invite people into His Sonship, and to be our representative before Almighty God. He gave us an example of how to live a holy life to the full. Jesus was not merely a man who received some special power, nor was he some strange creation that was half man and half God. As we will see together inside, He was much more than those ideas.

Exploring The Bible

Have you ever noticed the first thing a baby does when it is born? It cries! The crying shows that it is alive. Or how about when it needs help? It cries, wanting attention. A baby crying is symbolic of humanity's need of God and life with Him. That is the message of the Bible. The Bible also shows how God has intervened in human history - by becoming one of us and getting His hands dirty! WOW!

That is the message of Christmas and Easter! What is the best way to learn about God and follow Him? It is by reading the Bible regularly. Now, admittedly, this can lead to confusion! However, help is at hand within the pages of this little book. Christians think that through the Bible, God has spoken to our world because He loves this world which He made.

Written over a period of about 1,500 years by people of different nationalities, cultures and backgrounds, the Bible has a central message: God is love. Come inside and spend a short time each day, working your way through each book of the Bible, to see the development of this love. After all, it is the story of God & humanity. It is a story of ancient beginnings through to new beginnings! Are you ready? Come on in!

As well as looking at each book of the Bible, there is also a study guide looking at best practise to interacting with the Bible. In this section, we look at how God speaks through the Bible, some keys to understanding the Bible, how the Bible helps equips you for service, helps you to know God better and to discover His will for you, as one of His children...
