By Dr John Townsend, a book to help you in your life and work with teenagers.
Expert insight and guidance with assisting teens to take responsibility for their actions, attitudes and emotions. Townsend explores how teenagers think and how you can apply spiritual principles to specific issues and problems. This book can make a really positive difference to the adolescents and youth you spend time with.
Children and Spirituality
Children live in a world that is ‘big with Spirit’. They cannot avoid relating, spirit to spirit, to both good and evil. Those who seek to foster Christian spirituality in children, need to understand the nature of children’s spirituality and how it develops. This unique book is for parents, teachers, children’s leaders and all who are serious about their work with children. Glenn Cupit’s latest book is a valuable contribution to the ongoing discussion on child faith development.

More Details
For church ministers, children's leaders, youth leaders and particularly helpful for new leaders and directors.
Leadership can happen at any level of a church or organisation. It even happens in informal groups of friends. Following Jesus and Leading People draws on the example of Jesus using secular leadership theory to inform, encourage and challenge. It has important principles for pastors and the heads of organisations, but is just as relevant for youth leaders, mission volunteers, children's workers and all who seek to influence others for Jesus Christ.
Students will find this book extremely helpful in building paradigms and skills, as will coaches and mentors working with emerging leaders. Those who have been leaders on the road for awhile will find this a helpful corrective to the character drift that so often wrecks Christian leaders.

SU Victoria's State Director Dave Tolputt: The underlying theme of this book is that the number one role of a leader is change!
Forgotten Ways
Alan Hirsch (with Darryn Altclass) has written a ‘full-blooded and comprehensive call for the complete reorientation of the church.’
Like much of Hirsch’s work, this should be essential reading for Christians and church groups, to show a view of Church that may be far closer to the way of Jesus than current Western Christianity.
Highly recommended by Darren Cronshaw. Handbook also available.
Forgotten Ways Handbook
The Handbook that provides practical and simple steps for taking your faith, your family and/or your community closer to a way of being church that emulates the genuinely missional ways of Christ and the early church.
