‘The Bible says that ‘God rides the heavens’. If that’s so, is He interested in what I ride or drive?
‘His eye is on the sparrow’ may be wonderfully heart-warming to twitchers but the possibility that He also knows about ‘wheels’ is even more wonderful to me – and, I suspect, to others. So begins a journey that you are invited to motor along with .....’ .
This book draws on John's passion for vehicles, ranging from his first bike, motor scooters and a 'passable' black and white mini with red seats, and asks the question, 'Can a man love 'God' and 'wheels'?' A5 162pp

A Photocopiable resource book filled with simple, practical and innovative ideas for the development and maintenance of a healthy self-esteem. A4 268pp.
Synopsis:
A healthy level of individual self-esteem is the foundation for emotional, physcial and social well-being. People who value themselves and who recognise their own skills are likely to live fulfulling and rewarding lives and will tend to attract genuine liking and respect from other. Conversely, low levels of self-esteem have been linked with such personal and social concerns as school failure, depression, social anxiety, violence and substance abuse. Helping Adolescents and Adults to Build Self-Esteem follows on from the widely acclaimed Helping Children to Build Self-Esteem. It is filled with simple, practical and innovative ideas for supporting the development and maintenance of healthy self-esteem. Based on the author's clinical experience, the easy-to-use photocopiable activity sheets encourage participants to draw on existing skills and to develop new approaches to building confidence and feelings of self-worth. These exercises are suitable for work with individuals and with groups, and will prove an indispensable aid to building self-esteem in adolescents and individuals.

Only You Can Do this
breaking the stranglehold of secrecy
Cerys Morgan
'Only you can do this...'
Cerys writes movingly of her struggles to break free from the pressures of church leaders to keep the abuse she had experienced under wraps. It took great courage on her part and a steadfast faith in God to bring her to the point where she could inform the police of what she had suffered as a young person and eventually for justice to be done.
The final chapter of the book is written by the current Senior Leader of the church, who with fellow elders has faced up to past failings and gives clear advice about what to do when abuse is discovered.
