Rebellious Prophetjonah
Prejudiced, petulant, resentful, sulky: Jonah was not just a reluctant spokesman for God, he was also a disobedient one. The story of Jonah shows how God calls and uses those who are far from perfect. As Christians, we are all called to respond in some way to God ́s prompting. This study of the book of Jonah challenges us to do just that.

Laying a biblical framework for group leadership, it includes information and advice on the following issues: the role of the leader in the group; making newcomes to the group feel welcome; how to prepare for each session; leading Nurture and Growth groups; how to use shared meals and retreats to help a group grow. This second edition of Leading an Emmaus Group builds upon the experience of those who have used the Emmaus material since it was first published.

It aims to involve the whole Church in evangelism, the nurture of new believers and ongoing Christian discipleship.

Women Bishops in the Church of England?
In July 2000, the General Synod of the Church of England passed a motion asking the House of Bishops to initiate further theological study on the episcopate, focusing on the issues that need to be addressed in preparation for the debate on women in the episcopate in the Church of England. This report is the result of that reflection. The report sets out as clearly and objectively as possible the options open to the Church of England in this matter and outlines the surrounding theological and practical issues. The report discusses: the background to the debate; the historical development of episcopacy; the parameters for a theologically responsible debate on women and the episcopate; the development of women's ministry; the timing - whether now is the right time to ordain women bishops; the theological and practical consequences of possible future options.
