This DVD by Rob Bell is GREAT! He looks at scripture in an engaging and stimulating way that allows one to see in it proof of the depth lying behind the narratives. Funny, fascinating and informative, a most evocative and punchy watch for any adult or young adult.

Highly Recommended.

The surprising and illuminating writings of the Nobel Peace Prize winning Mother Theresa. Her struggles with feelings of disconnection from God and spiritual emptiness are a bittersweet reminder that even those regarded as the greatest of Christians deal with the same doubts and droughts so many of us experience.
A remarkable book about this famous woman whose death, eclipsed as it was by the death of Princess Diana at around the same time, was as unassuming as her life.

Australian theologian, evangelist and author John Dickson gives us a ‘lively and sensible’ book on evangelism. It’s a task for all believers, and one that can be based on the joy of true understanding of the scriptures and personal experience of the spirit. An informative and encouraging book for all Christians.

Australian Peter Crawford tells the story of Cockatoo – a small town destroyed in the Ash Wednesday Fires, and it’s rise again to become a thriving and colourful Christian community. An experience of the power of God’s love and healing, an experience our God-given power of love and healing.

With penetrating insights and pointed anecdotes, Stephen Covey reveals a step-by-step pathway for living with fairness, integrity, service and human dignity – principles that give us the security to adapt to change and the wisdom and power to take advantage of opportunities that change creates. In our current postmodern and post-Christendom climate, there are very valuable lessons to be learnt as we seek to serve the world.

‘Do we worship Jesus or an institution?’
So asked Australian Veronica Brady, activist, writer and catholic nun. Kath Jordan gives us this scintillating biography of a woman who is remembered amongst Christians, academics and politicians as one of our ‘most precious assets’ (although some would say Pope John Paul used to wake up every morning saying “Is she dead yet?”)

Local author Ash Barker shares first hand experience of the richness and life experienced when we follow Christ into sharing the daily reality of the majority of the world’s population.
The Bible repeatedly calls for the end of poverty and consequent oppression and suffering. Ash Barker and his family have answered the call with conviction and action and this book is a powerful testimony to what God does when we answer the call.
