  Go Now! is the true story of Wendell Martin and the amazing adventure he found himself caught up in when he dared to answer God’s call to ‘Go to Hong Kong Now!’ 
  The book is filled with bold faith and miracle stories that take you among the wild head-hunters in northern Philippines, to Communist China where Wendell and his wife, Daisy, made over 1000 border crossings with suitcases loaded with Bibles. It is the story of how God miraculously opened the way to deliver the gospel into every home in Hong Kong, and the surprising miracle that launched a ministry among thousands of Vietnamese Boat People detained in refugee camps in Hong Kong. 
  However, this book is more than just amazing missionary stories. Wendell gives you an intimate inside look at how God worked deep in his heart, the lessons learned in God’s ‘School of Hard Knocks’ and how the power of God rescued a discontented young man and crafted him into an effective tool for His service.

  What happens when life throws together a busy, enthusiastic, doctor-daughter and her bereaved, disenchanted, dependent father? What happens when science meets stubbornness and a parent needs parenting? 
  Following her mother’s death, Dr Helena Popovic puts her medical training and beliefs to the test when she becomes the carer for her elderly father, who has encroaching dementia. 
  A passionate medical practitioner and international speaker, Helena finds herself living out everything she preached. 
  This moving story is part personal diary, part scientific treatise and part practical guide, woven together with humorous anecdotes. Above all, it’s an inspiring account of a daughter in search of her father: the man beyond the grief, despair, depression and dementia. 
  This timeless book deals with a complex issue many of us will need to face: how best to care for elderly parents or loved ones who can no longer care for themselves. What do those in our care most need from us? 
  Are there steps we can take to defy dementia and build a better brain? Are we able to sharpen our intellect, tap into brain potential we never knew we had, and prevent the cognitive decline most of us believe is inevitable with ageing? 
  The answer is an unequivocal YES! 
  Facts inform but stories transform. The facts in this book will change your thinking – the story in this book will change your life. 
  ‘Who would have thought that dementia could be such an adventure—that adventure, in fact, prevents dementia!’ Dr Sarah Woodbury FRANZCOG
