Father...The first in a three-part story of rescue and redemption.
Carol Ann, abused child, addicted and exploited teenager, tells the
brutally honest tale of her early life - as uncompromising with her
own faults and failings as with those of others. Her story is all
the more shocking in that it is not unusual - countless young
people find themselves in much the same position for many of the
same reasons. But this story has a Hero. This is how she came to
know Him - and how you can too.

Life, thoughts and travels of a Free Spirit, from his humble
origins from a small village in Kashmir to even more unassuming
existence in a small town in the UK. His meetings with various
saints, and in particular, his associations with his spiritual
Master in Kashmir.
Dreaming of spiritual enlightenment, Jon Stein sets out alone on a
journey of discovery to Southern India. There he endures a series
of mishaps - culminating in a dramatic road accident. Yet through
adversity, he is led to the remarkable Utopian community of
Auroville where he undergoes an awakening that will change his life
forever. Join Jon and a cast of colourful characters on an amusing
and inspiring adventure to the heart of India.
Born in the ancient fishing village of Rosehearty on the Moray
Firth coast in 1949, David Littlejohn Beveridge went to sea in June
1966 as a deck apprentice with T & J Brocklebank. In 1978 he
joined the Department of Agriculture and Fisheries for Scotland
later the Scottish Fisheries Protection Agency, achieving command
in 1987. 'Water Under the Keel' is his autobiography.
The harrowing story of a man brought to rock bottom again and again
by abuse, mental illness, spiritual attack and his own wilful
nature. A story of loss and alienation, of loved ones driven away
and chances squandered. Ultimately, however, a story of hope and
grace, of dreams and visions; a testament to the unshakeable
faithfulness of Jesus Christ and a witness to the fact that there
is no pit so deep He cannot reach into it and rescue. The story of
Clive Jackson - a man with an extraordinary God.

A spiritual journeyman for over forty years, medium/clairvoyant,
teacher, speaker and healer, Caroline (aka Jenny Walker Knight) now
tells her story: From her birth, through illness, to marriage and
motherhood; from early spiritual awakenings, to the depths and
insights of spiritual philosophies, religions and 'truths'; through
the travail of violent conflicts and dogma, to the vocational
enlightenment of the Great Work at hand - that of man's
evolutionary growth - the purpose of this, her present incarnation.
And yet, in a world of ever-increasing war and materialism the
blessings of 'spiritual gifts' are as a curse to those preferring
to cast their fate to the winds of ignorant bliss. If God exists,
no matter how you perceive God to be, is there a place for Him
amongst those he created to be as gods? You decide!
Through a series of events taken from her own life, Bailey here
demonstrates that the power of God is still alive and well, and
that miracles are not confined to the Old Testament. Through her
belief in God, she has been chosen to witness certain visions and
signs of His love in order to provide comfort and guidance to
herself and her loved ones.
A stream of anecdotes of colourful and varied characters, with
vivid, saucy descriptions, self-deprecating humour, thoughts and
feelings about life and God, family troubles, friendships and help
received, prayers and parties - a human account of a parson's life.
I tell of characterful ancestors, wartime childhood, classy youth,
a grim and glamorous National Service, Cambridge in the '50s,
labouring in a steelworks, curacy in industrial Sheffield and later
another at St. Martin-in-the-Fields, followed by parishes in
Sandwich, Broadstairs and Dorset, to hunting, sailing and times in
Scotland. People have often said, "You're not like any of the other
Vicars I've met" - only half true and probably a very good thing
for the Church of England! I've been changed by visits to Iona,
Taize, Israel, a Kenyan shanty town and India in the steps of
Gandhi.
S. Anthony of Padua is one of the most popular saints of the
Church, and the story of his life is well known. His status as a
mediaeval intellect and a writer is much less widely known although
S. Anthony was declared a Doctor of the Church in 1946. In this
book Dr Severn explores S. Anthony the Evangelical Doctor,
considering his intellectual inheritance, his writings and his
influence on future thought.
