thought patterns and unhealthy habits. But grounded in God’s Word, we can move on, set free from these burdens. Mary Whelchel has developed insightful wisdom for

leading women to experience the true freedom of following Christ.“I wish that book was available when I became a Christian as it would have really

challenged me to move forward and grow in Jesus.” May Nicholson, Author and founder of Preshal Trust.

“Easily accessible and written with warmth, its practical biblical wisdom will both challenge and comfort those who are struggling with emotional baggage and difficulties,

yet long to mature as Christians.” Ann Allen, International speaker, Kilsyth, Scotland

1 & 2 Peter & JudeChristian living in an age of sufferingPaul Gardner1 Peter addresses Christians who have known suffering and persecution to a degree that we will never know. In 2 Peter, Peter was very concerned that those who deny Christ’s return should

be withstood and that the church could be confident that Christ had not abandoned them. The theme of Jude is similar and also points Christians towards the evidence of believers who heard Jesus speak, to enable them ‘to fight on for the faith which once and for all God has given to his people’.ISBN 978-1-78191-129-7 Large Trade | 416 Pages | PB | £12.99

diagnostician, but also with the understanding of someone who had profound experience of those depths and assurance that ‘God has forgiven me’.“provides us with an extended exposition of wonder of forgiveness” Sinclair B. FergusonISBN 978-1-84550-974-3Large Trade | 464 Pages | PB | £11.99
