A Most Peculiar Book - Kristin Swenson
There’s much to like about A Most Peculiar Book. Kristin Swenson writes entertainingly, with only the occasional lapse into the sort of academic language that makes reading most theology books like wading through treacle.
Slow Down, Show Up & Pray - Ruth Rice
If you thought this book was about prayer, you are mistaken. It is actually about connecting with God in a meaningful way that contributes to our overall wellbeing.
A Brief Theology of Periods - Rachel Jones
Periods are a hot topic – tax, poverty, endometriosis, sustainable products, the stigma in India where girls often drop out of school. There is now more public menstrual chat than there’s ever been. But a Christian voice is often missing.
Faith After Doubt - Brian McLaren
Brian McLaren’s latest book is an absolute must-read. From the first page until the last, Faith After Doubt is a gripping, honest and practical book for Christian who is experiencing doubt.

Hope in the Holy Land: This powerful Israel-Palestine documentary will challenge your assumptions
Like many American evangelicals, Todd Morehead believes the return of the Jews to the land of Israel, and the creation of the modern state in 1948 is a fulfilment of Old Testament prophecy (Ezekiel 37; Amos 9:14-15; Isaiah 66:8, etc). Debates rage over the correct interpretation of those biblical passages, ...

Miles To Go Before I Sleep - Claire Gilbert
If you don’t want to know what it’s like to have cancer, don’t read this book.
Dusk, Night, Dawn - Anne Lamott
