Freedom to Lead
by Colin Buckland
Price: £8.99
This book (originally published under the title of Liberated to Lead) is for any Christian in a position of leadership in the Church. Many leaders struggle with the nature of their role – trying to do the impossible for God, rather than doing their best and leaving the rest to the God of the impossible.
Colin helps readers to:
- Balance family life and the pressures of ministry
- Set realistic expectations in ministry
- Understand one’s calling to Christian service
- Avoid or overcome burnout.
Freedom to Lead is an invaluable tool for leaders who want to learn more about themselves and the role God has called them to.
The Call to Love
by Linda Riley
Price: £10.99
Love - just how do we live it the way God calls us to?
Rather than tell you, author Linda Riley shows you – sharing painfully honest stories from personal experience. Linda tells engaging story after story and along the way equips you to put the Great Commandments into action and face the challenge of loving for a lifetime.
- Loving our families with eternity in mind
- Loving someone you may not like
- Making the ideal real in our everyday lives
At last a book that will move you from should to could in your Christian life.
The Call to Intimacy
By Tony Horsfall
Price: £7.99
The Call to Intimacy explores why evangelical and charismatic Christians in particular need to slow down and heed the divine invitation to ‘be still and know that I am God’. Using biblical insights, and drawing from the wisdom of contemplative Christianity, the author encourages busy activists to build more time and space for God in their lives.
After considering the themes of stillness, silence and solitude as key aspects in drawing near to God, he then shows how we can grow in our awareness of God through reflection, biblical mediations and contemplation. Finally, he calls for a spirituality that is grounded in everyday life, one that can be lived out even in the fast lane.
"It is a joy for me to recommend this book to those who can no longer ignore or push away the passion for God’s presence – I warmly recommend it." From the Foreword by Joyce Huggett
Temptations Men Face
By Tom Eisenman
Price £7.99
Yielding to temptation is the norm today. In a world where right and wrong are increasingly meaningless terms, it is more urgent than ever that Christian men should ensure that their faith permeates every part of their lives.
Yet how can we live in a culture of seductive pleasures and power plays without being overcome? How can we reject peer pressure? How can we refuse sexual temptations and the drive to acquire?
In this intelligent and caring book Tom Eisenman helps men to confront those things which rob us of spiritual growth and authority. A concluding chapter offers advice to women on how to help men.
Culture Craft
By Rick Sessoms & Colin Buckland
Price £3.99
Many committed, capable, next-generation leaders are confused and frustrated in their current organisations. They cannot reconcile the evident chasm between the Jesus way of leadership and their own organisations’ dysfunctional cultures.
Rick and Colin have written this book to clear the confusion. They ask tough questions that reveal any organisation’s culture. They also offer practical, proven tools to build a ‘healthy’ organisation, one whose members demonstrate real values that are consistent with the teaching and example of Jesus.
This is a must-read book for ‘culture crafters’, those leaders who want to influence their organisations toward better health.
