It doesn't matter whether you are 3 or 7 or even 150 years old!We are the children of God when we accept Jesus Christ as our Saviour!"And I will be a father to you, and you will be sons and daughters to me," says the Lord Almighty. 2 Corinthians 4:18
Jesus is called the "firstborn" from the curse of death as he triumphantly shows us light in darkness and calls us to join him in His Kingdom as a joint heir. To do this, we must trust and follow Him through many dangers and toils as if in a foreign land, progressing as a pilgrim on the missions each of us are given. This is even if, like that of the Firstborn, they might at first appear to be impossible.Starting with this famous theme from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, teacher Jim Ward (pictured left) uses a combination of his own poetry, photography and focused questions, together with 'backpack' resource information, to explore what it means to be a modern Christian pilgrim in today's troubled world. Following the Firstborn provides strong stimulus and guidance for personal reflection on what matters most on our journey through life, but it is also a powerful springboard for group study and discussion of how we remain a faithful pilgrim in what C S Lewis has called 'enemy occupied territory'.
Christians Contemplating Abortion is the follow on book from her first book, Reconciled From Abortion's Chains, in which Sharon openly shares the story of her own abortion.
Whispers of Presence is a collection of daily reflections on spiritual aspects of life. Author Christine A Mallouhi dips into the Celts love of nature, the Monastics' daily rhythms, along with a sprinkling of Sufi love sayings. She gathers mentors to join with her own gentle reflections from a life, lived in both the West and the Middle East, to help us walk this sacred rhythm into daily life.These readings are thresholds to foster prayer and awareness that opens to the Presence of God in a fractured day. The central theme of shared love and longing for God brings healing to disparate communities in a frenetic world and can change how we live. They are offered as a gateway into developing a practice of do-able deliberate contemplative prayer stops, in busy days, to hear whispers of the God who is always present.
