Eric Milner-White and G.W.Briggs: Daily Prayer, first published in 1941, was the classic prayer anthology for a whole generation of Christians. Using that book as his framework, Frank Topping has created a new anthology which reflects the concerns and the spirituality of Christians in the twenty-first century. It is a superb resource which will enrich both in public worship and private devotion.

Daily Prayer is structured round the days of the week, and the church's year. It includes familiar and new prayers, meditations, prayers from scripture, collects from the lectionaries of different denominations, and extracts from spiritual classics. The language throughout is in line with the best modern liturgy.

In this collection of moving meditations, Frank Topping takes as his inspiration verses from the Psalms, St John's Gospel and St Paul's letter to the Romans. With his characteristic sensitivity and honesty he explores the well-loved passages and brings to them a new freshness. Beautifully illustrated with line drawings by Cetra Long, this book is ideal for private reading or group discussion. "It seemed as if this had been written specially for me," That was the most frequently repeated phrase when listeners to Radio 2 wrote to the BBC asking for a copy of the script of Frank Topping's morning meditations on Pause for Thought. "What made me decide to broadcast them regularly," says Frank, "was the huge response from listeners - literally thousands." In the Frank Topping series, the Lutterworth Press has published many of his most popular radio meditations. These collections of thoughts and prayers remain a pleasure to use and also a handy reference for those who want to find their favourite meditation.

says Frank

An Impossible God is an imaginative series of dramatic reflections on the key events of the first Good Friday and Easter. It follows the traditional pattern of the Stations of the Cross and Jesus' resurrection appearances. Often told from the perspective of a biblical character, these moving poems, prayers and reflections lend themselves to seasonal worship, private reading and public performance.
