Bøker av Mike Phillips

Taking life back into your own hands in midlife is no easy feat. But that is exactly what Mike Phillips has done. In his easy-to-read, emotional and inspiring memoir, the author describes the steps he took to unlearn much of what he was taught as a child and find a way to express his true identity."Personal stories are often compelling and worth reading, but what makes "From Priest to Pastor" so special is the unique journey Mike Phillips has experienced in his life. All who are called by God into the ministry must face the cost of surrendering their lives for this "High Calling". Mike discovered in his years in the Roman Catholic priesthood that his growing restlessness was something deeper than his personal challenge of sacrifice but was in fact an encounter with truth through the guidance of the Word of God and the Holy Spirit.His persistent and courageous commitment to discovering this truth makes his story, with its ultimate glorious, grace-filled ending, a compelling and fascinating read." John Pettifor, Nottingham, 2023."Mike Phillips has written a most compelling account of the struggles and successes on his journey from Priest to Pastor. Mike's story is courageous, honest, emotional and humorous. May it be a blessing to others on their own journey to godly change." -Dr Steven Jenkins MA, MInstAM

Sent from London to New York to bring a dying friend's message to his daughter, Mary, Sam Dean arrives in Queens, steeped in a mesh of Caribbean and Hispanic culture, looking forward to reconnecting with family and old friends. But his relaxing holiday turns dark when Mary disappears, and Sammy is caught up in a world of murder, sex, and corrupt politics that threatens to turn his world upside down. Melded with social commentary around race, class and gentrification, Point of Darkness is a gripping thriller, still eerily relevant.

A gripping, tense thriller guaranteed to keep you up all night...

This book is a kind of "knowledge dump", its intention is to provide you with information you need to grow your business successfully and profitably. In it I talk about some of the things I believe are crucial in a modern business: business culture, business strategy, leadership, and getting the whole business to work together to achieve common objectives. So what qualifies me to write this book and why might you read it? My wife and I started a business in 1996 Direct Visual Ltd (DV). Back then we owed money to everyone. About all we had was ambition and the knowledge we had accumulated over the years. By 2011 the business that started in our garage achieved a turnover of around ten million pounds and was sold at a premium. But this is not "our story"; it is a shortcut to your business success.

Another terrific compilation of jokes in the hugely successful series of Robinson Children's joke books - this one specialises in completely ridiculous and utterly stupid ones - they'll love it!
