For many centuries Christians have found the symbol of the cross to be a source of inspiration. Reflections in this book explore the less well-known cross which depicts Christ reigning as king of heaven and earth.Known as the Christus Rex, this depiction is rich in symbolism and tells much more of the story of Jesus' life, suffering, death, rising and triumphant return to heaven than any other form of the cross.The message of the Christus Rex is explored; each chapter focusing on one of a number of traditional and contemporary theological and spiritual insights.Christ The King - Icon Of Love would be suitable for individuals but also for groups meeting regularly. At the end of each chapter, there are suggestions for discussions and for prayer and a verse of a specially written hymn.

Here is a further collection of new hymn texts by Martin Leckebusch, whose writing is finding a place in many hymnals both in the UK and beyond. He writes in the tradition of the classic hymn writers but uses fresh, contemporary language to explore the Christian faith for the twenty-first century. These words are mostly set to well-known and widely published tunes, making them easily accessible to congregations for use in worship.This latest selection comes as the author passes the milestone of thirty years writing hymns; his work draws inspiration from a wide range of sources while always remaining true to Scripture. The book is made highly usable by the inclusion of Biblical, thematic and other indexes.As the author says: 'Hymns - both those from past generations and those by contemporary writers - remain an important element in my own Christian walk, and one of the ways my faith is nurtured and sustained. I hope that readers of this collection will find here insights and words to encourage and strengthen their own faith.'

Saints are not set apart as perfect or sinless, for they have the same weaknesses as all humans, but they are who God has called them to be and in being themselves, they reveal God's glory. Saints are people who work in common union with God and he is seen at work in their lives. This book is to introduce you to some of the people who are heroes of the Church and are revelations of God's glory. We share a common union with them, for we have the same Creator and Redeemer and the same Spirit of God: in God we are one with them.Each celebration of a saint follows the same format: a short introduction to the saint's life, the Scripture readings for the saint's day, which are taken mainly from the Common Worship Lectionary, an opening prayer, intercessions, the peace and a blessing.Together with its companion volume Icons of Glory, this book will encourage you to explore the common union to which we all belong and to discover God's call to you, which is unique. This is a call to be a fellow worker with God and to reveal his glory in your life. To see full contents Click Here

Christ has no body now, but yours. No hands, no feet on earth, but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks with compassion on this world. St Teresa of Avila.As Christians, we are all challenged by Jesus' final commission to his disciples, to go and make disciples of all nations. It has clearly not yet been accomplished and this is the springboard for Paul Cox's thought-provoking course of Lent reflections in No Body But Yours. Through six sessions, each of which can be followed either as a personal reflection for Lent, or as a group, the sentiments expressed in the prayer by St Teresa of Avila are examined in detail.No Body but Yours is an essential aid for Lent, encouraging us to reflect not just upon how we live our faith, but how this faith is proclaimed and perhaps more importantly, how we can be Christ to and for others.Calling on us all to take more seriously, and with greater personal engagement, the task Jesus has set us, Paul Cox encourages us to examine how we can be more Christlike, both in our own lives and in relation to others. It is a wonderful and daunting challenge, and one which, by our baptism into a life with Jesus, we agree to take up.

Does It Make a difference?Prayers may be formal or informal, carefully composed or on the spur of the moment.They might be in the form of confessions or thanksgivings, and often they are requests made to God on behalf of ourselves or for others.Does prayer change anything and what do our prayers say about the kind of God we believe in?Without shying away from philosophical and theological difficulties posed by the practice of prayer, John Saxbee provides an accessible and ultimately reassuring account of how prayer properly understood enlivens and enriches our relationship to God, our neighbour and the world around us.What Happens When We Pray? is a study with a pastoral purpose, touching on matters which are as emotionally sensitive as they are intellectually intriguing. It is an encouragement to think about what we are doing when we pray and a stimulus to pray with ever more conviction and commitment.

Using the daily Gospel readings for Lent to Easter as a starting point, Brian Fahy has written a personal reflection for each day of the journey to Easter, bringing together positive, heart-warming and inspirational stories and memories from his own life.When the goal of all our striving is a bright one, when there is a joyful end to our pilgrimage, then the days of walking are lifted from being merely a trek and a trudge through the valley of darkness. We need bright purposes every day of our lives. We need to know we are going somewhere.

Most church traditions recognise the special Christian witness of individual men and women over the ages. Whether formally termed 'saints' or celebrated as pioneers and 'game-changers', many of whom were put to death for their faith, their lives are often astonishing and frequently inspiring.Rupert Bristow has put together the stories of these people, more than 670 in all, ranging from household names to almost forgotten figures, for every day of the year and has written an accompanying prayer for each one. Faithful to the dates these saints are commemorated, Prayers for Saints is an invaluable resource for church and home, study and worship - or as a start to further exploration of the impact made by these extraordinary people.The accompanying CD-Rom makes it easy to integrate the text into prayers, sermons and study material.

Written in child-friendly language, this book follows that tradition, enabling children to hear the stories of their faith as engaging and interesting accounts of real events and real people. Key events and people have been selected and arranged so that, in the Old Testament, children can understand the developing story of the people of God and, in the New Testament, they can easily access different aspects of the life and ministry of Jesus. This is an ideal book for reading at home, for church and also for school, where it gives children ready access to the stories they need to underpin their work in RE lessons. It allows them to understand their story as a people of God.
