  "Boldly blows the lid off a taboo topic. If there’s one book on God to read this year, please make it ‘So Who is God Anyway?’ by G.S. Payne.” —Reader Views 
  "A well-written and convincing rumination on the divine." --Kirkus Reviews 
  GS Payne, writer, sleuth, and eternally curious ruminator, investigates 2,500 years-plus of philosophical thought on the subject of God. Using the tools of the philosopher (and a lot of humor), Payne traces the thinking of history's greatest brains to arrive initially at a conclusion on the matter of God's existence; then, a philosophical conception of God that is no less than startling, first because it is nothing like the traditional conception of God (he of the beard and sandals on his throne in the sky), and, second, because it is a conception that not only goes back to the beginning of recorded time, but is recognized by every major religion on earth, and yet has been tragically relegated to the fringes by the louder, more fundamentalist branches of mainstream religion. 
  So Who is God, Anyway? delivers splendidly-for doubters, skeptics, recovering fundamentalists, or anyone looking for a fun book to read about some damn big questions!

  Visualization is a powerful technique that involves creating mental images to influence our thoughts, emotions, and behaviours. At its core, visualization taps into the brain's ability to process imagery in a way that can lead to tangible changes in our lives. When we visualize, we engage not just our imagination but also activate neural pathways that enhance our ability to achieve our goals. This process can be particularly beneficial for individuals seeking to improve their mental health, boost their self-esteem, or navigate challenging situations in life.

  Helps parents to teach young children what the Bible says about sexuality proactively and positively in a culture with contrasting ideas and values.   As Christian parents, we long to equip our kids as they venture out into a culture where LGBT is affirmed and celebrated. We want them to know what God says, and to love what God says. But, it’s hard to know where to start. That's where this book can help  Author Rachel Gilson helps you to teach your children proactively and positively about God’s beautiful design for human sexuality, gender, and relationships. This book will help you to provide your children with a Christian framework for sexual ethics, rather than letting the culture lay the foundations of their worldview in this area.   Rachel writes with understanding and clarity to help fellow parents engage with the wider LGBT narrative with faith rather than fear. Since she herself experiences same-sex attraction but has chosen to follow the Bible's teaching, she has put much thought into this topic. She reassures us that Jesus gives us everything we need to be faithful disciples in a fallen world, and that God works out his perfect purposes despite human sin. She also shares her wisdom on how to respond with grace and truth to people with different beliefs in this area.   This book is ideal for preschool and elementary-school children.

  The Golden Age of Islam -...

  The Islamic Golden Age, which spanned from the 8th to the 13th century, was a period of extraordinary cultural, intellectual, and scientific development within the Islamic world. This flourishing era was deeply rooted in the foundational principles of Islam, where the pursuit of knowledge, the preservation of classical texts, and the quest for understanding the natural world were seen as acts of divine service. The Islamic civilization, during this time, became the beacon of knowledge and scholarship, laying the groundwork for significant advances in various fields that would influence the world for centuries to come. 
  The foundation of this golden age can be traced back to the establishment of the early Islamic empire, starting with the Rashidun Caliphate and continuing through the Umayyad and Abbasid Caliphates. Under the Abbasids, particularly, the capital city of Baghdad became a hub of intellectual activity and learning. The Abbasid caliphs, especially during the reign of Caliph Harun al-Rashid and his successors, recognized the importance of knowledge and promoted the translation of Greek, Persian, and Indian texts into Arabic. This movement, known as the translation movement, brought works of classical antiquity, such as those of Aristotle, Galen, and Ptolemy, to Islamic scholars. These translated texts formed the basis of advanced research in fields like philosophy, mathematics, and medicine. 
  At the heart of the Islamic intellectual renaissance was the House of Wisdom (Bayt al-Hikma), an institution established in Baghdad that became a center for scholars from diverse backgrounds. The House of Wisdom hosted translators, philosophers, mathematicians, astronomers, and doctors who would carry out research and engage in dialogue that bridged cultures and philosophies. This institution was instrumental in the synthesis of knowledge from different civilizations, fostering an environment of intellectual collaboration and exchange.

  Ten Ways to Find Love and How to...

  A guide to romance in the digital world.  
   
  Everyone is looking for love … but the search for love in the twenty-first century is fraught with obstacles (not least among them pandemics), uncertainties (does romantic love really exist, and if it does, are we worthy of it?) and contradictions (the popularity of dating apps versus our cynicism about them).  
   
  Although modern society and media have sold us the fairytale of that one big, romantic love – chemistry, sparks, passion – the majority of people don’t think a big love can be discovered on dating apps. Which is a shame, since so many of us find ourselves on them! Sure, you can find a hook-up, but that person needs to be announced by some sort of special, face-to-face, meet-cute experience.  
   
  Complicating the issue is our consumer culture’s fixation on the disposable and the new. When it comes to finding love, many of us become stuck in a cycle of looking for the next, even better relationship. Ironically, while we’re on this quest for romantic novelty, we may also be craving long-term partnerships, feeling like failures if we don’t achieve them. But then again … the stuff that makes up these long-term partnerships doesn’t look like fun – it looks more like work.  
   
  How can we reconcile these conflicting desires?  
   
  A media commentator, podcaster and academic, with a PhD in dating apps and intimacy, Dr Lisa Portolan has conducted hundreds of interviews and surveys over many years on the question of what love looks like in the digital age. Here she draws on her findings to present strategies to help you navigate the complexities of real-world relationships in order to achieve – and maintain – a successful, committed partnership. Case studies are woven throughout, authentic voices representing all aspects of the seeking, finding and keeping of love.  
   
  And what is the most profound lesson to be drawn from this incisive, compassionate, often humorous handbook? Ultimately, the pursuit of love is not just about finding a soulmate – it’s about becoming a better version of ourselves in the process.
