As both a youth worker and a parent I highly recommend this book. For anyone struggling to fully understand what their children are up to for those endless hours on their phone, tablet and computer (or dare I say all three at once?!) – this book is for you! Like many other parents bringing my […]
Parenting teens through exams? Need some wisdom and calm? Katharine Hill, UK Director of Care for the Family, brings some timely advice. I had a couple of London meetings and so had seized the opportunity to stay overnight with an old friend. Despite my protestations that sleeping on the sofa would be fine, her teenage […]
Who is your greatest hero? Who do you admire, secretly? If you could choose to be anyone in the world, who would it be? I would love to be Aragon! In my fantasy world, Tolkein’s brooding, tormented hero … is me. I may have less hair, my six pack might be hidden and I can’t […]

Well, this boy is a planner, […]

It is about power and how that impacts our freedom as Christians.” The theme of power runs throughout this helpful guide to some of the current issues to be faced in living faithfully as Christians in […]
Lead is now out! A month ago, with a handful of advance copies, we asked a few people – people who have direct first-hand experience of Karl Martin’s leadership, i.e those who know his weaknesses, who will spot an inaccuracy a mile off, who will see an exaggerated story as an opportunity for merciless ribbing – […]
Novelist Charles Reade is famous for this quote: “Sow a thought, reap an action; sow an action, reap a habit; sow a habit, reap a character; sow a character, reap a destiny.” Habits are powerful.
