This imbalance reflects the times about which the author is writing but the fact that they are included reflects the author's obvious awareness that all people and indeed all creatures are precious to the One who created them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eSensing the ‘dancing and swirling ripples’ on a river as a ‘sign of the Holy Spirit moving over the face of the waters’ (p165) may sound fanciful to readers of a more rational\u003cspan style=\"mso-spacerun: yes;\"\u003e \u003c\/span\u003emindset, but certainly gives the flavour of the book’s approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eFor each sacred site considered, there is a brief story of the saint’s life associated with it followed by a usually slightly longer account of the location and things that have happened there to those on pilgrimages led by the author.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eA poem, questions for reflection and an aptly and occasionally artfully (in both senses) chosen Bible passage, complete each chapter together with a photograph. Though the author is rather self-deprecating about his poetic skills, they were for me the most delightful part of the book and conjured up the sense of place and something of what it might be like to be on such a pilgrimage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eEach poem ends with a prayer that a particular characteristic of the saint concerned would also grow in the reader’s life also. Seven of these poetic prayer-endings mention the name of the saint concerned. I have chosen for brevity two of the shortest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eDear God, open the vents of heaven\u003cbr\u003ethat I may catch my breath at your wonders.\u003cbr\u003eFill me, that I may breathe upon the dimly burning wicks\u003cbr\u003eand the fragile fires burning in the hearts\u003cbr\u003eof your children in this beloved and yet wounded world\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-size: 0.875rem;\"\u003eand let the compassion of Brigid\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003ebe as a fire in the temple of my soul.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eLord grant to me a Cwyfan heart\u003cbr\u003ethat I may build homes of open hearts\u003cbr\u003eon the wild and shifting edges of this world,\u003cbr\u003eand trust in your unfailing love,\u003cbr\u003esturdy as a rock.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eIf these catch the wind of the Spirit in your sails, you will definitely enjoy the book. Even if they don’t but you would like more information about some of the places of pilgrimage in Britain and Ireland, and a feel for how pilgrims have been affected by them, then it’s also worth a look.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eI am keeping my review copy for reference on my own travels and feel Lindisfarne beckoning one day….\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom Jonny Baker's \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/jonnybaker.blogs.com\/\"\u003eblog\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMichael Mitton has a new book out - The Poetry of Pilgrimage. Together with Russ Parker he has led pilgrimages around the British Isles to sites of Celtic saints. I had the pleasure to go with a group of pioneers on one to Ireland many years back which was wonderful. The book is a square format, and for each of the 23 Celtic saints has a photograph, story, description of location, a poem and some questions for reflection. When I went on the pilgrimage to Ireland Michael wrote and read a couple of the poems. It's obviously a great book if you are visiting any of those sites but equally is a lovely book for reflection anyway. The Celtic stories are always inspiring and resonate with pioneers in my experience.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Jonny Baker\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFrom Methodist Recorder 01.11.24. \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview by David Gleed\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eMichael Mitton’s The Poetry of Pilgrimage is a lovely book of some 23 short chapters and while poetry is the focus, the well written location narrative that opens each new chapter provides a perfect setting for the verse that follows.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eI have visited a number of the places included in the book and found myself instantly transported back to those windswept coastlines and distant islands, where the Celtic saints of old eked out a living and founded communities that lived the Gospel message and carried it far and wide.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe author is very much a story-teller in verse.

A photograph concludes the chapter — there’s something about black and white photographs that add another layer of intrigue, I find. It happens here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003ePoetry resonates with many of those who travel The Way: prayer, reflection and poetry provide a rhythm around which to journey. Michael’s book captures this mood and the rhythm. It will prove a ready companion for both the armchair pilgrim and pilgrim on the road.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThrough narrative and verse the scene magically unfolds before you.

This book comes at a critical time, propelling its readers to pray, to act and to discuss together how to make a difference.

Through Bible readings, reflections and stories from A Rocha’s global conservation efforts, discover how the cross transforms not just our own individual connection with Jesus, but also our relationships with each other and our world. \u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAlso available in eBook format click \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/collections\/ebooks\/products\/the-whole-easter-story-why-the-cross-is-good-news-for-all-creation-1\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehere\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(0, 0, 0);\"\u003eJoin the A Rocha lent book club for 2025 with author Jo Swinney and Jo Herbert from A Rocha. \u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou are warmly invited to be part of a six week Lent group exploring what the Bible has to say about the whole story of the cross, based on \"The Whole Easter Story\" by Jo Swinney (BRF's Lent Book for 2025).

She has a passionate involvement with ‘A Rocha’ and its conservation programme, first in Portugal and now on six continents. She includes stories from ‘A Rocha’ in her book, along with forty Bible readings, reflections and prayers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eJo has the ability to relate the profound truths of Easter in a fresh and readable way, sharing her own experiences and illustrating these with her pen-drawings of creatures and plants from around the world.

This book comes at a critical time, propelling its readers to pray, to act and to discuss together how to make a difference. Included is a discussion guide for groups, extending over the six weeks of Lent. Here we have ‘The Whole Easter Story’; let’s embrace it and encourage others to do likewise, looking to the cross as it offers salvation to a struggling world and a needy people.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Betty Taylor\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"preserve-white-space\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"preserve-white-space\"\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/dd\u003e\n\u003c\/dl\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"row avoid-break\" data-v-5a160260=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"col\" data-v-5a160260=\"\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"card\" id=\"productCardSubjectsAndAudience\" data-v-5a160260=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c!----\u003e"}

Senses are alerted and emotions heightened as a very familiar account takes on new meaning, and a wide variety of personalities take their turn on centre stage. Some are crucial and well-known, others on the margins and brought to life by careful research and considered assumption. Useful Bible references accompany each section. Complementing the narrative are the illustrations by Jonathan Williams. Black and white and probably of charcoal origin, they evoke a deep passion as the reader is drawn into each of the frames. David’s inspirational book will bring a blessing for all readers, including groups who are looking for a fresh approach to Lenten study.

As he explains: ‘When so many centuries have passed by, it’s easy to feel a sense of distance and to treat the story simply as a place to find lessons about faith and life. But these events took place. People’s lives played out with all their hopes and doubts, their faith and fears.

As David Kitchen points out however, it goes back at least as far as Ignatius of Loyola. Like any way of engaging with scripture, some personality types will find it easier or more appealing than others, but many people find it a refreshing way to engage with the bible, particularly the more well-known stories which are all too easy to gloss over in their familiarity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat David has done here is slightly different. He has taken each day from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday (and a little beyond) and told the story not just through the eyes of the wider group of disciples (male and female), but also through others such as Caiaphas, and a soldier called Albus – as a named character he is of course imagined but there were many soldiers who formed part of the Easter story.

Senses are alerted and emotions heightened as a very familiar account takes on new meaning, and a wide variety of personalities take their turn on centre stage. Some are crucial and well-known, others on the margins and brought to life by careful research and considered assumption. Useful Bible references accompany each section. Complementing the narrative are the illustrations by Jonathan Williams. Black and white and probably of charcoal origin, they evoke a deep passion as the reader is drawn into each of the frames. David’s inspirational book will bring a blessing for all readers, including groups who are looking for a fresh approach to Lenten study.

Like any way of engaging with scripture, some personality types will find it easier or more appealing than others, but many people find it a refreshing way to engage with the bible, particularly the more well-known stories which are all too easy to gloss over in their familiarity. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhat David has done here is slightly different. He has taken each day from Palm Sunday to Easter Sunday (and a little beyond) and told the story not just through the eyes of the wider group of disciples (male and female), but also through others such as Caiaphas, and a soldier called Albus – as a named character he is of course imagined but there were many soldiers who formed part of the Easter story.

It is a guide to some of the deepest insights that Julian of Norwich has offered in her immortal text Revelations of Divine Love, and would make an excellent accompaniment for any individual or group looking for a guide to prayer and reflection over a period of time. Having offered some authoritative historical and theological context, Pennington explores Julian’s text from the tenth revelation onwards. To offer a taste: ‘The wound of Christ’ has us entering, not just contemplating externally, Christ’s pierced side, and experiencing the outpouring of his love. ‘His dearest mother’ offers a way to understand that the love that Christ has for her is the same and as strong as the love that he has for us. In 'Christ our saviour', Julian has a revelation that cannot be known with words, but only with experience, and yet she still manages to find words to lead us into the experience, and Pennington facilitates this beautifully.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIn ‘All shall be well’, a cloud comes over the mystical vision of the transcendent God, and Julian wrestles with the reality of sin, and demands to understand why God would declare ‘all shall be well’ when it really seems not to be. In ‘United to God through prayer’, Pennington gives a full and valuable account of different kinds of prayer. I am reminded of why I love contemplative prayer so much; for here we are freed from any notion of what God ‘ought’ to be to us. Pennington’s text is devotional, providing a practical application of Julian’s words to our spiritual lives and endeavours, and to our contemplation. Each chapter ends with reflections and questions, and, through these, Pennington makes the text of the Revelations participative, as the revelations themselves had invited Julian’s active participation. With Pennington’s guidance, we enter into Revelations of Divine Love fully. We cease to be critics and become disciples of the text. By this means, it gains the power to transform us, as Julian was herself transformed by her revelations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Dr Claire Herbert\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2024-10-23T14:55:57+01:00","created_at":"2024-10-23T14:55:57+01:00","vendor":"Emma Pennington","type":"Paperback","tags":["Devotional","Discipleship","KCLC","New Titles","Prayer","Spirituality","Upcoming titles","Women"],"price":1299,"price_min":1299,"price_max":1299,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":53599678103932,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781800392069","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"All Shall Be Well: Visions of salvation with Julian of Norwich","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1299,"weight":195,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781800392069","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":62714290143612,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"width":1535,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788"},"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/AllShallbeWell.jpg?v=1729691788","width":1535}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eHow can all be well in the world in which we live? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eWhat does ‘All shall be well’ mean when all is \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003enot\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e well? \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eThrough revelations ten to sixteen of her \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eRevelations of Divine Love\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, Julian of Norwich returns time and again to the idea that ‘all is well’.

For example the heading for chapter two ‘Where has your map come from?’ has nine subsections which sharpen the focus, such as What has shaped your faith map? Cultural and Christian assumptions, being enriched by working out what we believe to be true, being enriched by maps from other Christian traditions which leads to how is my faith serving me as I go forwards?\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eTo query where we are at is not a denial of our faith. It is a test of faith to ask what am I facing in life, how am I handling it, where are my resources and what decisions do I need to make that will give me a true reflection of where I am in the landscape of faith. \u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe second part of the book asks the key question ‘Where are you on your journey?’ which is examined by further questions. What’s the process through your journey to maturity on Christ? How can we avoid getting stuck? How do we learn to grow through times of challenge? What can we do to co-operate with God in the process? How does a fresh perspective affect how we travel onwards? The section headings ease our reading as they indicate pertinent points in the evolution of our faith: skip some and concentrate on others.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe chapter on disorientation, ‘what happens when your faith runs out?’, is very relevant in the face of questions that arise in connection with mental health issues.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe short section headed ‘What’s going on in disorientation’ is pertinent across the board whether one is a new or mature Christian.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eReimagining the Landscape of Faith is an excellent practical tool for ways of developing faith when life is going normally, and also handling faith when the moral and spiritual battles of life threaten to overwhelm us and sink the ship.

Coming from an evangelical and charismatic background, Tony Horsfall felt an increasing desire to know God more deeply.

Every Christian carries a map, a mental image of their journey through life, created from their Christian tradition, their cultural background and their understanding of the Bible. Most Christians will also, at some point in their life, begin to question their map – causing them to ask, ‘Is this all there is?’ and ‘How did I get here?’ Mary and Charles Hippsley help us to identify our faith map, including the unexamined assumptions that underpin it. Then, drawing on a range of sources of wisdom including personal experience, they gently encourage us to allow God to expand our map when we find that our faith doesn’t match up with the reality of life.

Most dioceses similarly highlight the fostering of discipleship among their key priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBut, at congregational level, the forming of engaged whole-life disciples can feel daunting. How do we help new believers to begin the journey of following Jesus? or help long-time believers better live out their faith in the real world? Guy Donegan-Cross was until recently Director of Learning for Discipleship and Mission in the diocese of Birmingham. His two new books seek to provide a resource for congregations to do just that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBoth are designed for individual or group use. The first and significantly shorter of the two, Start This Way, introduces the whole idea of discipleship: its roots, definitions, and characteristics. The style is accessible, and its emphases are well judged: our discipleship is a response to divine love, not a list of things to do; my story is part of God’s big story; to be a disciple is to be more fully myself; faith is not adding a bit of spirituality to life, but, rather, opening my eyes to a world alive with the presence of God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eOne helpfully contemporary chapter addresses the quest for identity in our day, and explores the ways in which discipleship might reframe the issues. There is a recurrent focus on the believers own feelings — what it ‘feels like’ to live as a disciple of Jesus. This is clearly deliberate, and marks a shift from an earlier generation of devotional paperbacks, which tended to view feelings as irrelevant distractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe second book, Walk This Way, is essentially an inventory of everyday discipleship. It begins with the biblical image of a disciple as an apprentice, and goes on to unpack the value of particular spiritual disciplines. There follows a series of chapters on growing in Christian character. The book ends with chapters on being a ‘missionary disciple’ who heeds Gods call to participate in mission and social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eEach of the two books can be read in isolation, or used sequentially in an extended study of discipleship — for example, after a Christian-basics or enquirers course. If I were leading a small group, I would be tempted to dive straight in with the second book, Walk This Way. It starts in the right place, with Jesus’ rabbinic model of discipleship, it is usefully earthed in everyday life, and its inventory of discipleship issues covers all the essentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Revd Mike Starkey is a London-based writer, and former Head of Church Growth for the diocese of Manchester\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul Beasley-Murray: Books for Today, July 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%; margin: 7.5pt 0cm 7.5pt 0cm;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #202020;\"\u003eGuy Donegan-Cross, an Anglican minister who has worked in Birmingham encouraging and resourcing discipleship and leadership, has written these two books [Discipleship: Start this Way and Discipleship: Walk this Way].

Most dioceses similarly highlight the fostering of discipleship among their key priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBut, at congregational level, the forming of engaged whole-life disciples can feel daunting. How do we help new believers to begin the journey of following Jesus? or help long-time believers better live out their faith in the real world? Guy Donegan-Cross was until recently Director of Learning for Discipleship and Mission in the diocese of Birmingham. His two new books seek to provide a resource for congregations to do just that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBoth are designed for individual or group use. The first and significantly shorter of the two, Start This Way, introduces the whole idea of discipleship: its roots, definitions, and characteristics. The style is accessible, and its emphases are well judged: our discipleship is a response to divine love, not a list of things to do; my story is part of God’s big story; to be a disciple is to be more fully myself; faith is not adding a bit of spirituality to life, but, rather, opening my eyes to a world alive with the presence of God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eOne helpfully contemporary chapter addresses the quest for identity in our day, and explores the ways in which discipleship might reframe the issues. There is a recurrent focus on the believers own feelings — what it ‘feels like’ to live as a disciple of Jesus. This is clearly deliberate, and marks a shift from an earlier generation of devotional paperbacks, which tended to view feelings as irrelevant distractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe second book, Walk This Way, is essentially an inventory of everyday discipleship. It begins with the biblical image of a disciple as an apprentice, and goes on to unpack the value of particular spiritual disciplines. There follows a series of chapters on growing in Christian character. The book ends with chapters on being a ‘missionary disciple’ who heeds Gods call to participate in mission and social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eEach of the two books can be read in isolation, or used sequentially in an extended study of discipleship — for example, after a Christian-basics or enquirers course. If I were leading a small group, I would be tempted to dive straight in with the second book, Walk This Way. It starts in the right place, with Jesus’ rabbinic model of discipleship, it is usefully earthed in everyday life, and its inventory of discipleship issues covers all the essentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Revd Mike Starkey is a London-based writer, and former Head of Church Growth for the diocese of Manchester\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul Beasley-Murray: Books for Today, July 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%; margin: 7.5pt 0cm 7.5pt 0cm;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #202020;\"\u003eGuy Donegan-Cross, an Anglican minister who has worked in Birmingham encouraging and resourcing discipleship and leadership, has written these two books [Discipleship: Start this Way and Discipleship: Walk this Way].

Review by Mike Starkey\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe Church of England aspires to seeing all believers ‘envisioned, resourced and released to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in the whole of life’ (Vision and Strategy). Most dioceses similarly highlight the fostering of discipleship among their key priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBut, at congregational level, the forming of engaged whole-life disciples can feel daunting. How do we help new believers to begin the journey of following Jesus? or help long-time believers better live out their faith in the real world? Guy Donegan-Cross was until recently Director of Learning for Discipleship and Mission in the diocese of Birmingham. His two new books seek to provide a resource for congregations to do just that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBoth are designed for individual or group use. The first and significantly shorter of the two, Start This Way, introduces the whole idea of discipleship: its roots, definitions, and characteristics. The style is accessible, and its emphases are well judged: our discipleship is a response to divine love, not a list of things to do; my story is part of God’s big story; to be a disciple is to be more fully myself; faith is not adding a bit of spirituality to life, but, rather, opening my eyes to a world alive with the presence of God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eOne helpfully contemporary chapter addresses the quest for identity in our day, and explores the ways in which discipleship might reframe the issues. There is a recurrent focus on the believers own feelings — what it ‘feels like’ to live as a disciple of Jesus. This is clearly deliberate, and marks a shift from an earlier generation of devotional paperbacks, which tended to view feelings as irrelevant distractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe second book, Walk This Way, is essentially an inventory of everyday discipleship. It begins with the biblical image of a disciple as an apprentice, and goes on to unpack the value of particular spiritual disciplines. There follows a series of chapters on growing in Christian character. The book ends with chapters on being a ‘missionary disciple’ who heeds Gods call to participate in mission and social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eEach of the two books can be read in isolation, or used sequentially in an extended study of discipleship — for example, after a Christian-basics or enquirers course. If I were leading a small group, I would be tempted to dive straight in with the second book, Walk This Way. It starts in the right place, with Jesus’ rabbinic model of discipleship, it is usefully earthed in everyday life, and its inventory of discipleship issues covers all the essentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Revd Mike Starkey is a London-based writer, and former Head of Church Growth for the diocese of Manchester\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul Beasley-Murray: Books for Today, July 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%; margin: 7.5pt 0cm 7.5pt 0cm;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #202020;\"\u003eGuy Donegan-Cross, an Anglican minister who has worked in Birmingham encouraging and resourcing discipleship and leadership, has written these two books [Discipleship: Start this Way and Discipleship: Walk this Way].

Review by Mike Starkey\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe Church of England aspires to seeing all believers ‘envisioned, resourced and released to live as disciples of Jesus Christ in the whole of life’ (Vision and Strategy). Most dioceses similarly highlight the fostering of discipleship among their key priorities.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBut, at congregational level, the forming of engaged whole-life disciples can feel daunting. How do we help new believers to begin the journey of following Jesus? or help long-time believers better live out their faith in the real world? Guy Donegan-Cross was until recently Director of Learning for Discipleship and Mission in the diocese of Birmingham. His two new books seek to provide a resource for congregations to do just that.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eBoth are designed for individual or group use. The first and significantly shorter of the two, Start This Way, introduces the whole idea of discipleship: its roots, definitions, and characteristics. The style is accessible, and its emphases are well judged: our discipleship is a response to divine love, not a list of things to do; my story is part of God’s big story; to be a disciple is to be more fully myself; faith is not adding a bit of spirituality to life, but, rather, opening my eyes to a world alive with the presence of God.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eOne helpfully contemporary chapter addresses the quest for identity in our day, and explores the ways in which discipleship might reframe the issues. There is a recurrent focus on the believers own feelings — what it ‘feels like’ to live as a disciple of Jesus. This is clearly deliberate, and marks a shift from an earlier generation of devotional paperbacks, which tended to view feelings as irrelevant distractions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eThe second book, Walk This Way, is essentially an inventory of everyday discipleship. It begins with the biblical image of a disciple as an apprentice, and goes on to unpack the value of particular spiritual disciplines. There follows a series of chapters on growing in Christian character. The book ends with chapters on being a ‘missionary disciple’ who heeds Gods call to participate in mission and social justice.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003eEach of the two books can be read in isolation, or used sequentially in an extended study of discipleship — for example, after a Christian-basics or enquirers course. If I were leading a small group, I would be tempted to dive straight in with the second book, Walk This Way. It starts in the right place, with Jesus’ rabbinic model of discipleship, it is usefully earthed in everyday life, and its inventory of discipleship issues covers all the essentials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003ci\u003eThe Revd Mike Starkey is a London-based writer, and former Head of Church Growth for the diocese of Manchester\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePaul Beasley-Murray: Books for Today, July 2025\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"line-height: 150%; margin: 7.5pt 0cm 7.5pt 0cm;\" class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-family: 'Helvetica',sans-serif; color: #202020;\"\u003eGuy Donegan-Cross, an Anglican minister who has worked in Birmingham encouraging and resourcing discipleship and leadership, has written these two books [Discipleship: Start this Way and Discipleship: Walk this Way].

Through eating and exploring faith together, Ignite shares the gospel in both word and action, while also supporting people’s essential needs. This book sets out how to plan and run Ignite in your context. It covers building and supporting a team, how best to set up for Ignite and the style in which it should be delivered.

They and other church members walked around the parish in twos, meeting local residents and finding out about their lives – in particular their physical needs. These conversations led to new contacts and friendships, and invitations to drinks and snacks in church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOne of the new contacts was a local drug dealer. Before long, church members were regularly sharing bags of chips with the dealer and his customers, and listening without judgement to their life stories. Something remarkable was stirring. A Wednesday Alpha course was started, and a hundred people turned up. When the course ended, around 80 wanted to continue meeting – but few had any experience of traditional church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe leap in format from an informal, chatty Wednesday evening to formal, structured Sunday morning in church felt daunting. The Ellisdons had a vision of losing the momentum that they had built up. On impulse, they invited people to come back the next Wednesday evening, for food and friendship. They had to think quickly about what might authentic church feel like for these people in this community with these complex needs. In other words they had to ask questions about contextual mission and ecclesiology. The result was a service in an informal café-church style, Ignite, which continued meeting on Wednesday evenings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe Ignite model was later rolled out across other areas of deprivation in Canterbury diocese, and received funding from the Church Commissioners as a pioneering model of mission. This chatty and practical handbook explains and illustrates the rationale for Ignite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe first half of the book explores core principles: helping people to respect and value themselves, showing that they are loved and valued by others, and providing a safe space to explore faith. Belonging precedes believing. The second half outlines nearly 30 sample Ignite events, each with its own theme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIgnite clearly comes from a broadly Evangelical stable, not least in the informality of its worship. But churches of all traditions, struggling to connect with their local community, could find inspiration in the Ignite model – particularly in its rigorously incarnational and relational starting-points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Mike Starkey, former head of church growth, diocese of Manchester\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2024-11-28T12:05:08+00:00","created_at":"2024-11-28T12:05:08+00:00","vendor":"Debbie Ellisdon and Patrick Ellisdon","type":"Paperback","tags":["Discipleship","For churches","KCLC","Leadership","New Titles","Upcoming titles"],"price":1299,"price_min":1299,"price_max":1299,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":54829136970108,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781800393011","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Ignite: How to share faith, build community and do church, differently","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":1299,"weight":260,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781800393011","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Ignite_67dbc879-6d35-4612-848d-2f7f1d0cd757.jpg?v=1741612486"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Ignite_67dbc879-6d35-4612-848d-2f7f1d0cd757.jpg?v=1741612486","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":64122788544892,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.705,"height":2480,"width":1748,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Ignite_67dbc879-6d35-4612-848d-2f7f1d0cd757.jpg?v=1741612486"},"aspect_ratio":0.705,"height":2480,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/Ignite_67dbc879-6d35-4612-848d-2f7f1d0cd757.jpg?v=1741612486","width":1748}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eGod loves to bring people into community, into a knowledge of being loved and valued. Many people, especially those living in marginalised and socially deprived communities, struggle with mainstream church. The Ignite café-church model, pioneered in Canterbury Diocese, is designed to build relationships and share faith with people where they are, in their own communities. Through eating and exploring faith together, Ignite shares the gospel in both word and action, while also supporting people’s essential needs. This book sets out how to plan and run Ignite in your context. It covers building and supporting a team, how best to set up for Ignite and the style in which it should be delivered. Pre-planned ‘running orders’ provide a wealth of weekly material including video clips, table discussions, quizzes, short talks, craft activities, drama and prayer responses.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch5\u003eAuthor bio\u003c\/h5\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDebbie Ellisdon \u003c\/strong\u003e co-leads the Canterbury Diocese Ignite project where she helps to oversee, mentor and encourage Ignite communities across the diocese.

Once thriving seaside resorts are now home to some of the most extreme pockets of deprivation in the country. In 2004, the Revd Patrick Ellisdon and his wife, Debbie, moved to the Cliftonville area of Margate, one of the poorest parishes in Britain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eGuest houses that once accommodated affluent Victorian holiday-makers were packed with people living in acute poverty and struggling with complex needs. The Ellisdons began with listening and relationship-building. They and other church members walked around the parish in twos, meeting local residents and finding out about their lives – in particular their physical needs. These conversations led to new contacts and friendships, and invitations to drinks and snacks in church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eOne of the new contacts was a local drug dealer. Before long, church members were regularly sharing bags of chips with the dealer and his customers, and listening without judgement to their life stories. Something remarkable was stirring. A Wednesday Alpha course was started, and a hundred people turned up. When the course ended, around 80 wanted to continue meeting – but few had any experience of traditional church.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe leap in format from an informal, chatty Wednesday evening to formal, structured Sunday morning in church felt daunting. The Ellisdons had a vision of losing the momentum that they had built up. On impulse, they invited people to come back the next Wednesday evening, for food and friendship. They had to think quickly about what might authentic church feel like for these people in this community with these complex needs. In other words they had to ask questions about contextual mission and ecclesiology. The result was a service in an informal café-church style, Ignite, which continued meeting on Wednesday evenings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe Ignite model was later rolled out across other areas of deprivation in Canterbury diocese, and received funding from the Church Commissioners as a pioneering model of mission. This chatty and practical handbook explains and illustrates the rationale for Ignite.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe first half of the book explores core principles: helping people to respect and value themselves, showing that they are loved and valued by others, and providing a safe space to explore faith. Belonging precedes believing. The second half outlines nearly 30 sample Ignite events, each with its own theme.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eIgnite clearly comes from a broadly Evangelical stable, not least in the informality of its worship. But churches of all traditions, struggling to connect with their local community, could find inspiration in the Ignite model – particularly in its rigorously incarnational and relational starting-points.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Mike Starkey, former head of church growth, diocese of Manchester\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}

An Anglican chaplain at Cambridge University's Robinson College, the author writes engagingly of 'times of beginning that are born out of the ending of something else', using her own experiences alongside readings from Genesis, 1 Kings, Isaiah and the Gospels. Reviewed by Andy Goodliff Maggi Dawn is an Anglican Priest, theologian, university chaplain, singer, author, speaker and blogger. This book is a collection of bible readings and reflections for the season of advent. As Christmas seems to begin earlier and earlier each year, the season of Advent gets squeezed and this book reminds us that there are four weeks before Christmas begins. The style of the book reminds me of Tom Wright's For Everyone series as it communicates and reveals new depths to these well-known stories. The book is divided into six sections. Section one is all about beginnings and especially how the gospel writers begin their story. Section two and three take us back into Old Testament and Abraham, Elijah and Isaiah. Section four looks at angel-incidents in the Bible and explores how God speaks to us. Section five draws us into the story of Mary and Joseph and section six is headed endings and we engage with shepherds and kings. Some of my favourite of the reflections - 'Coming, ready or not' and 'No room at the inn?' - first appeared on Maggi's blog over the last few years. In 'Coming, ready or not', we find a baby will come whether everything is in place or not and so Maggi says 'it is with God. He will be born in our world whether we're ready or not, deserving or not, prepared or not. The incarnation of God will defy our plans, upset the organized and come with ease and joy to undeserving sinners and the poor in spirit. (p.105). 'No room at the inn?' explores the Greek word kataluma, which is often translated as 'inn'. Maggi shows us the word is actually more likely to mean 'a large family living room used for eating and receiving guests' (p.115), which puts a different emphasis on how we read the story. Let me encourage you to get a copy of this book to go with your Advent calendar. In and amongst the busyness of those December days, these daily Bible readings will enable you to prepare for the coming of God once again.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2025-05-07T12:28:17+01:00","created_at":"2025-03-28T12:22:30+00:00","vendor":"Maggi Dawn","type":"Paperback","tags":["Advent","Christmas","Devotional","Discipleship","Donation","For individuals","For Women","KCLC","New Titles","seasonal","Upcoming titles"],"price":999,"price_min":999,"price_max":999,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":55065389826428,"title":"Default Title","option1":"Default Title","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781800395107","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":null,"available":true,"name":"Beginnings and Endings (and what happens in between)","public_title":null,"options":["Default Title"],"price":999,"weight":0,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781800395107","requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[]}],"images":["\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BeginningsandEndings.jpg?v=1746617192"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BeginningsandEndings.jpg?v=1746617192","options":["Title"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":64644050551164,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"width":1535,"src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BeginningsandEndings.jpg?v=1746617192"},"aspect_ratio":0.656,"height":2339,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/files\/BeginningsandEndings.jpg?v=1746617192","width":1535}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOur everyday lives are full of small-scale beginnings and endings-births, death, marriages, careers, house moves and so on.
