  A tribute to the special spirit of the British Lions rugby team, with a history of Lions tours and pen portraits of the sixty greatest Lions players since 1971.Playing for the British Lions has been the ultimate accolade for any Home Union rugby player, ever since the first Lions tour to South Africa in 1910.

  ·     Getting clean, purified water. 
  All of these things will be elaborately explained, inspiring you to take action if such action ever becomes necessary. 
  Book 2: This book covers a range of topics that don’t seem to be related at first, but if you look closer, you’ll see the bigger picture. All of these topics are more or less connected to the idea of fending for yourself, being able to survive off the grid, or in case of a major disaster.

  One or the other of you surely remembers the school breaks back then on the playground in the elementary school at the thought of jumping rope. And surely you are smiling about it now. It was a pastime as a kid, it was fun, and it was literally child's play. Is it still that way today?

  Donna J. Knight is a God-fearing and God-loving author and motivational speaker. Her testimony will both touch your heart and lift your spirit to new levels. Her recount of being led into a wilderness experience, under the guise of basketball, will evoke tears of sadness and tears of joy. 
  Knight's testimony of how she unconsciously developed a deep and meaningful relationship with God, our Father through the Holy Spirit that fills her from the inside-out, is truly inspirational. 
  Through her philosophical approach, Knight's ability to reflect and share her understanding of her wilderness experience to show how she was spiritually prepared for the passing of her thirteen-year-old son, is remarkable. THE BOY WHO SAW DOUBLE is a homage to her late son Rashard Miles Henry, a talented tennis player, who was diagnosed with Diffuse Intrinsic Pontine Glioma (DIPG)

  Like There's No Tomorrow -...

  Christians often find it difficult to talk or preach or engage with the possibility of climate catastrophe and an uninhabitable earth, for the questions are enormous. Faith in God needs to engage with the reality of the tragic loss of creation through anthropogenic impact.
  
   
  If we're living in the end times, then how should we live? Wracked with grief, anxiety and guilt, with foreboding deep as death? How is it possible to live hopefully, even as we face realistically the inevitability of the radical impact of an unpredictable climate, rising sea levels, the collapse of biodiversity? How do we remain faithful to God and loving to our neighbour, particularly if our neighbours are exiles and immigrants because their homes are no longer inhabitable? What do we tell our children and grandchildren, so they don't grow up completely overwhelmed by anxiety, such that mental illness levels continue to soar?
  
   
  Frances Ward attempts to think through some of these questions; to continue to have faith, hope, and love in response to God. It is a Christian response to eco-anxiety, a theological and contemplative reflection to sustain a fierce hope that hopes against hope. It is a deep lament that provokes a fierce hope to enable humanity to live life to the full, like there's no tomorrow.
