60 Great Founders
The influence of Christians is a part of our inheritance and a key factor in the creation of a moral fabric underpinning our society. For a society to function there have to be norms of acceptable behaviour. In a society that does not accept our the existence of God, right and wrong are relative terms that change with every fashion or political movement. Right or wrong are concepts that don't really exist without absolutes - fixed points outside society which are not changed by it. 60 great founders tell the story of Christians who contributed to the setting up of organisations that changed people's lives and influenced what we call 'civilised society'. Without these people our lives would be poorer, through their foundational work our attitudes are closer to those who expressed by God in the bible.
Great Events in the Story of the Church
Starting with the crucifixion of Jesus and ending with the 1974 International Congress on World Evangelisation, Geoffrey Hanks explains the significance of these 36 events on our church today. He traces several themes through the book such as the collating of the scriptures into 66 books and centuries later the publishing of the King James Version of the Bible. The useful information boxes give further details, for instance 'Son of Man', 'indulgences', 'Calvin at Geneva', and 'The Hebrew Language'
70 Great Christians
70 Great Christians has become a publishing phenomenon! It is a consistent best seller in Christian Bookshops and has found markets all around the World. The Story of the Church is a story of people moved by God to achieve things for his glory. Some are from privileged backgrounds but the majority started out as ordinary people just like you. God says that he will 'choose the foolish things of this world to confound the wise' and so here we find people who are prepared to stand up to the spirit of the age and become fools for Christ's sake. This is a useful resource book for pastors, teachers and schools. More than that it is a well written and comprehensive collection of biographies of those people who have given all (sometimes mistakenly) for the God they sought to serve.

The Anticipatory Corpse
In this original and compelling book, Jeffrey P. Bishop, a philosopher, ethicist, and physician, argues that something has gone sadly amiss in the care of the dying by contemporary medicine and in our social and political views of death, as shaped by our scientific successes and ongoing debates about euthanasia and the “right to die”—or to live. The Anticipatory Corpse: Medicine, Power, and the Care of the Dying, informed by Foucault’s genealogy of medicine and power as well as by a thorough grasp of current medical practices and medical ethics, argues that a view of people as machines in motion—people as, in effect, temporarily animated corpses with interchangeable parts—has bec...
