No Ordinary Man - Book 1
What must it have felt like to be one of the shepherds beside the manger, or one of the wise men at last arriving in Bethlehem, one of the apostles sharing in the Last Supper, or one of the women standing at the foot of the cross, one of those to whom Jesus appeared after his death, or one of those who felt the power of the Spirit at work in the early days of the Christian Church? Nick Fawcett's imaginative, often moving meditations breathe new life into passages of Scripture which may have become so familiar they fail to speak as powerfully as they used to. He puts us into the shoes of those who knew Jesus best, and, through reflection, Bible reading and prayer, encourages us to explore what Jesus means for us now. No Ordinary Man, Book 1 includes 100 meditations on the life of Jesus, a superb collection of related prayers, 21 service outlines for Advent to Trinity, 9 outlines for themed services and quiet days, and suggestions for music and slides.

This Meal We Share
Whenever we gather around the Lord's table, we come as we are to share in things which are greater than ourselves. All good worship depends on achieving a happy balance between two aspects: being faithful to the tradition of the Church, doing what she has done always and everywhere, but also being faithful to the community that gathers to celebrate. Genuine tradition is a dynamic memory, pushing us forward to celebrate not just our yesterdays, but our todays and all our tomorrows. Too few though they may be, there are among us today pastoral poets - priests who have the gift of being able to express the Church's undying tradition in the words which they know best suit the assembly gathered in that particular place on that particular day. This Meal We Share is a collection of such prayers by Graham Jeffery, demonstrating how the words the celebrant speaks can come from the heart, not just from the book. May Graham Jeffery's words, humbly offered, encourage and inspire you as you pray with and in the name of your community.

What happens after Confirmation? In this lively young person's guide, Susan Sayers welcomes the newly-confirmed reader into the next stage of Christian life - exciting, challenging and full of discovery. Written for members of the Anglican Church, the book explores the questions and difficulties that young Christians often face: prayer (where should I pray, and how does God actually answer my prayers?), the Bible (where is the best place to start reading?), and forgiveness (how do I deal with sin?). Susan Sayers blends clear teaching with practical prayer patterns, suggested daily routines, and plenty of encouragement for everyday Christian living. An approachable companion for the weeks, months and years after Confirmation, helping young people grow into a closer relationship with God.

Praying The Passion
The perfect daily companion for the Lenten season, this little book by Ken Taylor is a comprehensive narrative of the Passion using details and aspects of all four Gospel accounts. Mark's account is used as a base, and details unique to the other three Gospels are interwoven to produce a 'composite Passion'. This larger, fuller account is used as a springboard for meditation and prayer. For each day of Lent, there is one reading from the Passion on the left-hand page and one meditation on the right-hand page. The book contains three appendices: one of explanatory notes; one that describes a Passover Seder; and one with a suggested use of selections from the material within the congregation during Holy Week. Specifications Format: Paperback - Perfect Bound Size: 125 x 210 mm Publication date: November 1996 Page count: 112 pages ISBN: 9780862099022 Contents Introduction Praying the Passion Appendix 1: Explanatory notes Appendix 2: The Last Supper and Passover Appendix 3: Use in Holy Week

Christ Our Peace
Christ Our Peace offers six short, reflective services for use throughout Lent and Holy Week. Drawing on the early Church's tradition of using the weeks before Easter as a time of instruction, reflection and meditation, this collection provides one service for each of the four Sundays in Lent, together with Passion Sunday and Palm Sunday. Written by Stuart Thomas, the services are designed to be used flexibly. Each can stand on its own, but the individual elements - prayers, responses, songs and meditations - can equally be extracted and used in other contexts. The material is based on the ASB readings and themes for each Sunday in Lent, but is entirely independent and may be used by churches or Christian groups of any tradition. Recognising that quieter, more reflective services may not attract vast congregations, the book takes its inspiration from Christ's promise to be present 'wherever two or three are gathered'. There is space for silence and meditation, with suggestions for hymns from the New Anglican Edition of Hymns Old and New that match the thoughtful tone of the liturgy throughout. Specifications Format: Paperback - Perfect Bound Size: 160 x 245 mm Publication date: 1996 Page count: 32 pages ISBN: 9780862098988 Contents Introduction First Sunday in Lent Second Sunday in Lent Third Sunday in Lent Fourth Sunday in Lent Passion Sunday Palm Sunday
