    A Clear Outline of Basic Christianity from Theologian J. I. Packer

Each chapter helps both new and lifelong believers examine what Packer calls "the intellectual ABCs" of the gospel so they can grow in faith.

    Genuine Love - The Authentic...

    Genuine love is a profound and selfless connection that goes beyond fleeting emotions or superficial attractions. It is the kind of love that stands the test of time, built on a foundation of trust, honesty, and deep care for another person’s well-being. Unlike infatuation, which often thrives on excitement and novelty, genuine love is rooted in understanding, patience, and an unwavering commitment to support and uplift someone unconditionally. It does not fade in the face of challenges but instead grows stronger through them. 
    One of the most distinguishing features of true affection is its authenticity. There is no pretense, no need to impress, and no expectation of perfection. Genuine love allows people to be their truest selves, knowing they are accepted and cherished just as they are. It does not seek to control or manipulate but instead nurtures personal growth and emotional security. Those who experience this form of love feel safe, valued, and deeply connected. 
    Empathy plays a crucial role in fostering genuine love. The ability to understand and share another person’s emotions creates a bond that transcends words. It is through empathy that love becomes a source of comfort, reassurance, and strength. When someone genuinely loves another, they do not merely sympathize with their struggles; they actively seek to ease their burdens, celebrate their victories, and stand beside them through every season of life.

    Bread is central to God's story, and to your story too. 
     
     
     
    Our spiritual lives are deeply connected to bread—the bread we break with family and friends and the Bread that is Christ's Body, given and broken for us. It's easy to choose the cheapest, most convenient option, but the life of Jesus and the story of Scripture, as well as the substance of bread itself, shows us that there is more. In By Bread Alone, Kendall Vanderslice, a professional baker and practical theologian who spends her days elbow-deep in dough, reveals that there is no food more spiritually significant than bread—whether eating, baking, sharing, or breaking. 
     
     
     
    Kendall has struggled with hunger ever since she can remember—hunger for bread, yes, but also for community and for the ability to "taste and see" the goodness of God. She knows the tension of bread as blessing and bread as burden but has learned that bread also offers a unique opportunity to heal our relationship to the body of Christ and to our own bodies. In By Bread Alone, she weaves her own faith-filled journey together with original recipes and stories about the role of bread in church history, revealing a God who draws near to us and creatively provides for our daily needs.

    Paul must often have felt like a mother duck guiding her ducklings to safety. He had seen the enthusiasm of the Colossian Christians but knew they had no idea of the dangers they would face. Longing for them to continue growing in faith, Paul--now stuck in prison--wrote to his young flock, affirming them, warning them of hazards and pointing them to King Jesus, the supreme one who was with them and at work in them. These eight studies on Colossians and Philemon will similarly guide us toward maturity in King Jesus, who is still at work in his people today.
    This guide by Tom Wright can be used on its own or alongside his New Testament for Everyone commentary on Colossians and Philemon. It is designed to help you understand Scripture in fresh ways under the guidance of one of the world's leading New Testament scholars. Thoughtful questions, prayer suggestions, and useful background and cultural information all guide you or a group more deeply into God's Word. Discover how you can participate more fully in God's kingdom.

    Reclaim Your Voice, Reshape the Future 
    Sparks challenges the status quo of those who feel sidelined and shutdown, those believing that it is better to remain silent than to be shamed into silence. He reminds readers that to shape a better, collective future, it is crucial that they courageously find their voice. The book is thoughtfully provocative, but also sensitive. 
    In Finding My Lost Voice Sparks steps carefully into controversial conversations that have polarised the world. He is reflective, inspiring readers to think carefully and to engage constructively with each discussion; whether that is white privilege, homosexuality, body image, or whether it is better to support Israel or Palestine. He persuades readers to reject mob mentality, and to embrace free speech whilst learning to think independently. 
    Sparks’s unique lens is that of a heterosexual, white, Christian man in his late 50’s. He speaks as a person some may prefer to cancel! But he speaks, nonetheless. He calls readers to embrace three indispensable qualities that must flavour every engagement: justice, kindness, and humility. 
    Standing at the intersection of conviction and complacency, readers must choose: Will they settle for a life of quiet desperation? Or will they ignore the voices trying to silence them? Will they find their lost voice?
