Jesus is called the "firstborn" from the curse of death as he triumphantly shows us light in darkness and calls us to join him in His Kingdom as a joint heir. To do this, we must trust and follow Him through many dangers and toils as if in a foreign land, progressing as a pilgrim on the missions each of us are given. This is even if, like that of the Firstborn, they might at first appear to be impossible.Starting with this famous theme from John Bunyan's The Pilgrim's Progress, teacher Jim Ward (pictured left) uses a combination of his own poetry, photography and focused questions, together with 'backpack' resource information, to explore what it means to be a modern Christian pilgrim in today's troubled world. Following the Firstborn provides strong stimulus and guidance for personal reflection on what matters most on our journey through life, but it is also a powerful springboard for group study and discussion of how we remain a faithful pilgrim in what C S Lewis has called 'enemy occupied territory'.

Don't you admire people who hold nothing back? Don't you love people who stand confident and strong in their faith? You know they have a story to tell.This is a story of jumping into the unknown. It's my story of ordinary me, who said yes to an amazing God. Here I tell you the truth about a journey, a journey that took me from living in Cairns, Queensland Australia, to a village in rural Malawi in Africa.In JUMP, I unpack raw life lessons from over a decade of learning to trust God in a different culture and worldview; a faith journey that isn't pretty, but it's real. I share with you stories of calling, mistakes, passion and the struggles of ordinary people who have inspired and stretched me more than I'd ever imaged, yet brought deeper joy than I'd ever hoped for.Jumping into the unknown isn't recklessness, nor is it immaturity or ignorance. It is deeply personal obedience. God speaks to each of us individually. Everyone's story is different.Together, we'll a take that leap of faith and see what God has in store for you and your life.

Whispers of Presence is a collection of daily reflections on spiritual aspects of life. Author Christine A Mallouhi dips into the Celts love of nature, the Monastics' daily rhythms, along with a sprinkling of Sufi love sayings. She gathers mentors to join with her own gentle reflections from a life, lived in both the West and the Middle East, to help us walk this sacred rhythm into daily life.These readings are thresholds to foster prayer and awareness that opens to the Presence of God in a fractured day. The central theme of shared love and longing for God brings healing to disparate communities in a frenetic world and can change how we live. They are offered as a gateway into developing a practice of do-able deliberate contemplative prayer stops, in busy days, to hear whispers of the God who is always present.
