A Really Noisy Nativity! is a fun, lively and interactive Christmas musical, written to get children to sing, join in with sound effects and generally be loud! The story can be performed in two different ways, with more or less adult interaction, depending on the age and confidence of the children and number of performers.
The songs have been written with Alison Carver's usual flair and sense of fun, and are accompanied with free downloadable backing tracks – there are two recordings of each song; one with vocals and one to use as a backing track. So, go on – make some noise for Christmas!

Joyce Huggett has written for busy people and helps us to ask searching questions about how we live and pray, and how to discover what lessons we can learn as we journey with Jesus from his baptism to his suffering, death and resurrection.
The season of Lent is a good time to have a spiritual 'clean up' as we stop and reflect upon the suffering of Jesus and all that he endured for us. This book contains many suggestions to help with the planning and presentation of all-age Lent and Easter services and activities. There are games, prayers, activities for family groups, talk suggestions and more!
A series of eight stimulating and challenging Bible studies for groups. Each study has six sessions/themes with an easy-to-follow structure including:• prayers • an introduction to the theme • an ice-breaking activity • Bible readings • comment on the theme • discussion questions • meditation • suggestions for action DiscipleshipAn exploration of how we all are pilgrims, for every one of us is called to follow the way of Christ. Becoming a Christian is not an end in itself but the start of a lifetime's pilgrimage, and the path of discipleship calls for perseverance, trust and courage. The six weekly themes are:• Called to a journey • A personal journey • Equipped for the journey • A journey of discovery • Completing the journey • The God who journeys with usLiving with QuestionsA study containing wisdom, insight and sound guidance for anyone wrestling with questions of faith and doubt. It recognises that honest questioning can be a sign of strength rather than weakness, and a significant step in an unfolding journey of discipleship. The six weekly themes are:• Learning through questions • Disturbing questions • The faith in question • Ultimate questions • Living with questions • Beyond questionPaulExploring the major aspects of Paul's life, teaching and mission, and making the great Apostle accessible and meaningful to the lives and faith journeys of modern Christians. The six weekly themes are:• Admitting we're wrong • By the grace of God • Pressing on • The one thing needed • True contentment • So much more to saySomething To ShareLooking at the importance of sharing our faith with others in an indifferent and even hostile world; how to do it - and how not to do it. The six themes are:• No one told me • Keep it simple • Practising what we preach • Speaking their language • Words from the heart • Don't push itPrayerExploring the subject of prayer, raising the kinds of questions many people ask, and offering helpful answers. The six weekly themes are:• The ingredients of prayer • Honest prayer • Asking in prayer • Unanswered prayer • Persistence in prayer • Rediscovering prayerUnsung GiftsFocusing on six individuals whose life and witness made a significant contribution to the early Church. The gifts they exhibited were not those we would automatically describe as spiritual, nor were they necessarily the only gifts they had, but they each played a part in furthering the cause of Christ. The six weekly themes are:• Ananias: ready to say 'yes' • Barnabas: ready to encourage • James: ready to listen • Epaphras: ready to pray • Epaphroditus: ready to drop • Luke: ready to be thereLoveLooking at love as the key which unlocks the door of faith. It begins by exploring a statement of faith at its simplest - God is love - and then moves on to our response in terms of loving God and loving others. The six weekly themes are:• God is love • Love God • Love one another • Love your enemies • Love your neighbour • Love yourselfWomen of FaithFocusing on six women - from the Old and New Testaments. Each of them tells a remarkable story and offers a distinctive example of faith. The six weekly themes are:• Ruth: voice of the outsider • Esther: voice for the persecuted • Mary, sister of Martha: voice of the heart • The woman who touched Jesus' cloak: voice for the sick • The woman of Samaria: voice of the despised • Lydia: voice of commitmentPlease note made to order items are non-returnable
