Ever been at a loss for words? Ever wished that the perfect wry remark or putdown would spring to mind?
 
The great, the good, the intellectual and the downright insulting can all be found in Brit Wit. With wonderful one-liners from such formidable figures as Churchill and Shakespeare to more recent luminaries of British stage, screen and society including Michael Caine, Victoria Wood and Eddie Izzard, Brit Wit celebrates all that makes Britain brilliant.

The Story of Paul - the early years

Trevor Galpin

This book is about Paul, the apostle who had an amazing revelation of the love of God the Father expressed through Jesus Christ his beloved Son.  The revelation of the God who was in Christ. 
   How did Paul receive such an incredible revelation? 
  How was this legalistic Jewish Pharisee who persecuted the early church transformed into the man who has this profound revelation? 
Who was the man behind the words? 
  What was the back story?  
Paul’s story unfolds in the pages of the New Testament.  His story is pieced together from the account written by Luke in the Acts of the Apostles along with some pieces of biographical information scattered through the thirteen letters written by Paul himself. 
  This book also explores Paul's revelation and teaching because they are relevant for the Church today.  Paul saw things with the eyes of his heart that very few have seen, and he still has much to teach us.  
James Jordan says of this book, “In this very easy to read, informative and entertaining book by my friend, brother and fellow servant of the Body of Christ, Trevor Galpin, you will be introduced to Paul in a deeper and more full way than I have ever known to be in print.   This is the story of Paul.
