The Holy Spirit, An Introduction
In this easily readable book Dr David Petts answers questions like: Who is the Holy Spirit? Should we worship the Holy Spirit? What is the blasphemy against the Holy Spirit? What role does the Spirit play in the work of conversion? Can the Holy Spirit help me live a holy life? What is the Baptism in the Holy Spirit? How can I receive and maintain the fulness of the Spirit? What are the gifts of the Spirit and how can I receive them? What's the role of the Holy Spirit in the life of the church? Written from a distinctly charismatic perspective this book will both inform you and inspire you. The author's balanced approach, with his insistence that our experience of the Spirit must be understood and evaluated in the light of biblical revelation, gives the reader confidence that the writer is familiar with the Holy Spirit's work not only from his study of the Word of God but also from personal experience.
Pagan and Christian
A study of conversion to Christianity in the early medieval world which explores in particular the relationship between archaeology and belief and an attempt to re-centre the 'pagan' as a key element in the conversion process.
Signs from Heaven
Signs from Heaven is the story of one man's experience of the miracle-working power of God. Miracles are events that defy natural explanation. They are signs - signs of God's existence, His power, and His love. Like the miracles that happened in the Bible, miracles today confirm the truth of the Christian message. The miracles recorded in this book will inspire Christians in their faith and encourage those who are not yet Christians to put their trust in Jesus Christ, who still works miracles today.
Christianity in Roman Britain
Using the latest archaeological evidence David Petts traces the growth of Christianity in Roman Britain from its earliest beginnings to the end of Roman rule in the province and beyond.
You'd Better Believe It [6th Edition]
YOU'D BETTER BELIEVE IT has proved a valuable tool as an introduction to basic Christian doctrine for young converts and for those who are more mature in the faith.

Early Medieval Northumbria
This series focuses on Western Europe in the Early Middle Ages and covers work in the areas of history, language & literature, archaeology, art history and religious studies. It brings together current scholarship on early medieval Britain with scholarship on western continental Europe and Viking Scandinavia; these areas have more traditionally been studied separately or in terms of the interaction of discrete cultures and regions. As well as advocating new approaches across geographical and political divisions, this series spans the conventional distinctions between Late Antiquity and the Early Middle Ages on the one hand, and the Early Middle Ages and the twelfth century on the other.

Cultural Mapping as Cultural Inquiry
This edited collection provides an introduction to the emerging interdisciplinary field of cultural mapping, offering a range of perspectives that are international in scope. Cultural mapping is a mode of inquiry and a methodological tool in urban planning, cultural sustainability, and community development that makes visible the ways local stories, practices, relationships, memories, and rituals constitute places as meaningful locations. The chapters address themes, processes, approaches, and research methodologies drawn from examples in Australia, Canada, Estonia, the United Kingdom, Egypt, Italy, Malaysia, Malta, Palestine, Portugal, Singapore, Sweden, Syria, the United Arab Emirates, the...
The Early Medieval Church in Wales
An exploration of the history and archaeology of the Christian Church in Wales
County Durham
The premier monument is Durham Cathedral, greatest of English Norman churches. Lovers of the Middle Ages will also seek out the county's exceptional Anglo-Saxon churches, while many of its great castles - Brancepeth, Raby, Auckland, Lambton - conceal palatial Georgian and Victorian interiors. The landscape varies dramatically, from the wilds of Teesdale and Weardale, in the west, to the pioneering industrial ports of Sunderland and Hartlepool on the coast, including fine gentry houses and stone-built market towns. South Tyneside and northern Cleveland, historically part of County Durham, are also covered.
The Lindisfarne Gospels
Masterpiece of medieval manuscript production and decoration, its Latin text glossed throughout in Old English, the Lindisfarne Gospels is a vital witness to the book culture, art, and Christianity of the Anglo-Saxons and their interactions with Ireland, Italy, and the wider world. The expert studies in this collection examine in turn the archaeology of Holy Island, relations between Ireland and Northumbria, early Northumbrian book culture, the relationship of the Lindisfarne Gospels to the Church universal, the canon table apparatus of the manuscript, the decoration of its Canon Tables, its systems of liturgical readings, the mathematical principles underlying the design of its carpet pages, points of comparison and contrast with the Book of Durrow, the Latin and Old English texts, the nature of the glossator’s ink, and the meaning of enigmatic words and phrases within the vernacular gloss. Approaching the material from a series of new perspectives, the contributors shed new light on numerous aspects of this magnificent manuscript, its milieux, and its significance.
