Ken Gardiner has a passion for Jesus Christ and a passion for truth. Drawing on his rich life experiences of God and his deep biblical knowledge, Ken invites us to re-examine the essence of the Christian faith. Creatively retelling the story of God's self-revelation through the Scriptures, Ken questions familiar understandings with intelligence and wry humour while remaining faithful to the text and evangelical tradition. The writer discusses the nature of sin and atonement, the effect of baptism and Communion, the role of Scripture and the guidance of the Holy Spirit, the significance of Jesus' resurrection appearances, the meaning of the two Trees in the Garden, and heaven and hell. This book is ideal for individual or group study. Join Ken as he shares his insight and passion for a God who has continually surprised him, ever revealing Himself, in the mundane as well as the profound, to be far more wonderful than he could have ever begun to imagine. "This is a patient, involved, wise interpretation of the Christian story ...I have a feeling some people are going to have their lives changed through the reading of it." The Venerable Simon Burton-Jones, Archdeacon of Rochester

This, the second volume of the series, is a selected set of revised versions of the scriptures of the 'less supported' established religions of the world: Jainism, Sikhism, Sufism, Shintoism, Baha'ism, Neo-Paganism; together with works of later mystics and poets, sundry esotera, the Gnostic gospels from Christianity, a couple of apocryphal pieces from Judaism, a conflation of parts of the Kabbalah with Neo-Christian reincarnationist traditions, a heterodox sutra from Hinduism, and a replacement for Psalms. All the texts been transliterated to conform, insofar as that is possible, with modern scientific understanding and a liberal, in its widest sense, political agenda, and hopefully to make them easier to read.

"What are Christians to make of their mission in an pluralistic world?" asks Paul F. Knitter, author of the landmark work in interfaith dialogue No Other Name? As a recognized scholar and participant in interfaith dialogue, Knitter is in a unique position to explore the key concept of what Christian mission must entail in a world that will remain a world of many religious faiths for the foreseeable future. From the first chapter of Jesus and the Other Names, which recounts his own theological and dialogical odyssey, Knitter constructs what he calls a "correlational, globally-responsible theology of religions" as a necessary correction to traditional pluralist and exclusivist approaches. By anticipating and addressing his critics - both conservative and liberal - Knitter makes a powerful argument for a reconstruction of mission faithful to the Christian imperative and dynamically attuned to the plurality of the world. Jesus and the Other Names will give pause to those who believe Christian mission can be carried on as it was in the modern era. Sure to inspire debate as well as dialogue it offers a more humble, but perhaps more "Christic", postmodern approach to mission in the new millennium that has little to do with earthly glory and nothing to do with the sense of cultural superiority that has so often - and often so tragicallyaccompanied modern missionary movements. Theologians, missiologists, Christian historians, can all benefit from its thoughtful and timely message.

Despite the popular theology of our day, Christians should not expect to get out of experiencing the tribulation or the end times. Nowhere in the Bible does the Lord promise us this, say Michael Brown and Craig Keener, two leading, acclaimed Bible scholars. In fact, they say, Jesus promises us tribulation in this world. Yet this is no reason to fear. In this fascinating, accessible, and personal book, Brown and Keener walk you through what the Bible really says about the rapture, the tribulation, and the end times. What they find will leave you full of hope. God's wrath is not poured out on His people, and He will shield us from it--as he shielded Israel in Egypt during the ten plagues. So instead of taking comfort in what God hasn't promised, take comfort in the words of Jesus: He has overcome the world, and we live in his victory.

Two thousand years ago the Lady Mary, the sacred 'Rose in the Heart', made pilgrimage to the mystical British Isles, with the boy Jesus, Naomi her daughter and Joseph of Arimathea. Her Holy Mission as designated by the Masters, was to reactivate the Cosmic Light at ancient Druidic sites, some which held an Atlantean Temple in the Etheric Realm. As 'instructed' by Mary and with Divine guidance, Caroline Harris has followed in her footsteps, travelling through ancient Dummonia - Cornwall, Devon and Somerset, performing sacred Ceremonies to revitalize that Light, and earth the ancient Temples. Intuitively received inspirational messages for the Aquarian Age, are offered from the Masters, Angelic Messengers and those from the Devic Kingdom. Among many subjects explored are: Britain - the New Jerusalem; Atlantis, Hyperborea and Lyonesse; the Ancient Wisdom; the Immaculate Conception; did Jesus die on the Cross?; the Lost Goddess; the Holy Grail; Celtic Christianity; Arthurian Tales; the Crystalline Grid; Ley Lines; Reincarnation; Unicorns; the Essenes; the Egyptian Mysteries; Aboriginal Wisdom, Thought Travel, plus Visions of Glastonbury. You will find this fascinating story, absorbing, enlightening and thought provoking, whatever your persuasion, and it will be of special interest to the dedicated Pilgrim and Light Worker.
