Be Comforted
Years of helping people with their mental and emotional health have taught Philip Eley that there are no quick fixes and there are no solutions which work for everyone. He presents here an empathic, realistic approach to mental health and what the Bible has to say on the subject. Be Comforted is a meditation on the seven stages of grief, detailing how the Bible can help us in each of these stages. The author shows how the Bible addresses mental health with a whole rainbow of approaches. There’s a place for positive thinking but also for trusting God with our difficulties and engaging with more complicated and nuanced references, such as laments, times when God hides his face, writers who wrestled with God and expressed their negative emotions.

Season The Preaching
Reheated sermons are about as palatable as reheated microwave meals: they fill you up but are ultimately unsatisfying and neither tasty nor nutritious. As we thrive on fresh food seasoned well, so also we grow in faith from sermons that present us with new insights into the Bible and challenge us with God's truth.Drawing on over 30 years' experience of preaching in settings as diverse as large Christian events and under a baobab tree in Africa, Paul Canon Harris provides sermon outlines and reflections on the gospel and other readings in the three-year lectionary cycle. He writes preacher to preacher, giving an outline, insight and illustrations for others to use in their own preparation.Paul Canon Harris is an Anglican priest, writer and poet. He has trained and encouraged many younger preachers in the UK and abroad and is a regular contributor to BBC Radio 2's Pause for Thought and other radio stations. He is a Canon Emeritus of Gloucester Cathedral.Season the Preaching is an invaluable resource for preachers, group leaders and students of the gospels.

Rooted in God
Maybe you have reached a point in your spiritual life where you are beginning to feel tired, stressed, discouraged, lacking motivation, and possibly even distant from God. You might be feeling completely wrung out. Perhaps the busyness of life is placing pressure on you, preventing you from having the opportunity to rest, relax, and more importantly, to enjoy being with God. And, of course, busyness comes in many different forms, for example: vocational, parenting, volunteering, being a carer . . . and even in terms of church commitments. Or perhaps you are dealing with, or recovering from trauma or crisis in your life. Patrick Coghlan’s new eBook ‘Rooted In God’ explores all these subjects in a spiritual and helpful way to see us all through these turbulent times.
