Sinopsis

Daniel O’Connor has led a remarkable life as a priest, scholar, missionary and teacher. His ten years as chaplain and lecturer in St Stephen’s College, Delhi and his years as Principal of the College of the Ascension, Selly Oak established him as one of the leading scholars of missionary activity during the time of the British Empire and afterwards.

 
Identifying closely with post-colonialism his writings on C. F. Andrews and Verrier Elwin provide a rich resource for the history of late imperial and early independent India. O’Connor wrote the latest official history of the USPG.

 
The essays in this book provide an introduction to his many writings, beginning with his early work on the Private Devotions of Bishop John Cosin of Durham and concluding with his magisterial overview of the “geography” of Anglican missions over the centuries. Dan’s own writings are followed by some writings on spirituality by his wife Juliet.

    The Apocalypse of Mark is a Christian book written in the ancient style of apocalyptic literature designed to read like a short narrative book one would find in the Bible, like Job, Ruth, or Esther. Narrator John Mark presents a linear retelling of the Biblical meta-narrative, heavily quoting from and alluding to the Biblical text. Beginning prior to creation and ending in the "new heavens and earth" incorporating enigmatic Biblical passages, it demonstrates how they are indispensable to the overall redemption story. The text also offers the reader hope by exposing the Gospel of Jesus as the central focus of God's relational plan. The text is packed with theological teachings and shows how they are all interconnected. The author began the project by trying to solve the question, "Where do demons come from?" Bolstered by years of research, he presents his findings in a creative and engaging narrative style.

    Spend twenty-four hours with the ancient Egyptians. 
     
     
     
    Ancient Egypt wasn't all pyramids, sphinxes and gold sarcophagi. For your average Egyptian, life was tough, and work was hard, conducted under the burning gaze of the sun god Ra. 
     
     
     
    During the course of a day in the ancient city of Thebes (modern-day Luxor), Egypt's religious capital, we meet twenty-four Egyptians from all strata of society—from the king to the bread-maker, the priestess to the fisherman, the soldier to the midwife—and get to know what the real Egypt was like by spending an hour in their company. We encounter a different one of these characters every hour and in every chapter, and through their eyes see what an average day in ancient Egypt was really like.

    Of the billions of humans now alive and kicking, let two of them fall in love, marry, and yet it can’t stick. They chose each other, and even still…Just two can’t make ‘love’ work – not two lovers, two races, two nations, two siblings, two people. We crave to know true love. That’s the deep well of thirst in every eye, every soul. It’s not in our control, however. Our own spirits are not the source, the spring - that’s why our ‘love’ breaks down.When we see this, when we feel this, our hearts cry out to God to know true love. We need his touch, not just a story. We need the healing Spirit of God’s love, not a religion. In this short book I share with you the simple, powerful story of Jesus and his offer of God’s love and Spirit to you.
