the plans i have for you - christian books

The Plans I Have For You

Alan Batchelor has just published this must read book ‘The Plans I Have For You’.

It draws from talks that he has given at his local church, sermons which Alan reworked as studies from the word of God that can be read, rather than merely listened to. The subject matter covers a range of topics from both Old and the New Testament, but the message of God’s Love and His Grace shines through it all. It is an unchanging message, as God is unchanging and it is a message that men and women today need to hear in a world that is uncertain and often, to many, frightening.

 

Born in Belfast, Northern Ireland, I have a degree in languages from Dublin University, Trinity College. I have had no formal training in the art of preaching, although many years at my place of work, the King’s School in Macclesfield, where I had responsibility for organising and frequently delivering the morning assembly, has given me a unique experience in communication to a wide range of listeners.

It has been an enormous privilege, a challenge and a responsibility to be asked to preach from time to time at my local church, Tytherington Family Worship Church in Macclesfield, and previously at the Good News Church in the same town. Both of these Church Fellowships hold the Word of God dear to their hearts and my sermons, I trust, reflect that. Perhaps they might more accurately be described as studies in the word God, since they do not often follow the usual sermon pattern of “say what you are going to say, say it with points beginning with the same letter, and then say what you have said.” – Written by Alan Batchelor

stand keep standing

Extract from Stand and Keep Standing

A true story of how God brought the author through rejection, hurt and brokenness. How God taught her to stand and keep standing on His word and promise until there was breakthrough.

“My childhood was not always a happy one. I did not have a close relationship with my Mother. She never showed any emotion to me, no hugs or affection. I was a modern-day Cinderella and did lots of the cooking and housework…

She did not want to kiss me, if I went to kiss her goodnight; she would turn her face on the side and put her arm up so I would end up kissing her cheek. I don’t know why she was like that, perhaps she did not know herself, but she behaved differently with my two brothers…..

All children need to have that love from their parents before the go elsewhere for it. All children need to feel confident in them and encouraged to feel that they are special.”

Sweet Holy Spirit - christian books

Sweet Holy Spirit

This is a mind-blowing and inspirational memoir of a young boy from Africa, who had an encounter with the Person of the Holy Spirit in 2018. ‘Sweet Holy Spirit’ is written by Joshua Abraham.

At the age of 22, Joshua lost his beloved mother; she was his greatest companion. In the bid to find solace, he started learning about the Person and Ministry of the Holy Spirit from several books and messages. By the time he was 23 years old, during the early hours of a Sunday, he had a very dramatic encounter with the comforter; the Holy Spirit. He has since then found rest and peace walking with Him. This book ‘Sweet Holy Spirit’ provides a template that anyone can follow to encountering the Holy Spirit, as well as an intricately captured insight of the Person and Ministry of the Holy Spirit.

 

 

 

towards effective teaching - christian books

Towards Effective Teaching

This new book, by Edwin Pugh, draws on examples from the Gospels looking at some of the methods Jesus used in teaching his disciples his spiritual truths.

It shows how he captivated the imaginations of those listening, how he instilled them with God’s truths and equipped them to do His work. Examples are given of him preaching, , giving a demonstration, using a case-study, setting a project and mentoring his followers.

Teaching is not just about technique. It is about who you are. Drawing on Jesus we look at the qualities required to be an effective Christian teacher. This book is written for those who wish to become better teachers as well as those who are interested in catching a glimpse of the techniques Jesus used.

 

“I am a retired medical consultant and professor. I have been involved in medical education and the teaching of educational theory and practice to medical staff for many years. I hold a qualification in medical education. I am also a Christian and have been involved in teaching for many years as part of Christian service both in the UK and overseas. “
