Recommended Biographies for your summer
As we’ve studied Hebrews 11 on a Sunday, among other things, we’ve been moved and inspired by Biblical examples of faith as they’ve pointed beyond themselves to Jesus – “the pioneer and perfecter of faith” (12v2). Therefore, this summer why not pick up a Christian biography or two, to see more examples of how God has worked in and through regular people for his glory?
Here are book recommendations from the staff team (click on any title to go to 10ofthose.com to make a purchase):
On My Way to Heaven, Mark Ashton, £2.99
Mark talks frankly and movingly about facing death with Christ as he experiences terminal cancer. Very good to give away to friends and neighbours. Length: very short.
Amazing Grace in the Life of William Wilberforce, John Piper, £3.94
Read how Wilberforce was driven by the gospel to bring out the end of the slave trade and great changes in the moral life of Great Britain. Length: short.
Shining Like Stars, Lindsay Brown, £5.99
A heart-warming look at the spread of the gospel amongst and by students around the world. Length: medium.

28 short inspiring biographies of Christians from the 16th to 19th Centuries. Length: medium.

Written as a novel but based on true stories, a fascinating insight into life of Christians who have converted from a Muslim background. Length: medium.

Holiday Club 2014 – bookings open now
We are now taking bookings for Holy Redeemer’s children’s holiday club!

We look forwards to seeing you there.
Spring Home Group Plan
Prayer and Bible study groups are held at various church member’s homes. The aim is for people to grow in their love for God and for each other through studying his Word. Groups run on Wednesday’s from 8pm to 9.30pm. Contact Ian Gilmour for more information.
This term we are looking at the Psalms.
In March the Home groups will be taking a break so that we can focus on our Real Lives evenings, which are a part of a Passion for Life, giving people opportunities to come and hear about the difference Jesus makes in life’s ups and downs – watch this space for more information!
Sunday Evening Preaching programme now available
The programme for the bible talks in the 6pm service is now available to download or take away on a Sunday.
This term we are looking forward to hearing God speak to us through John as we hear it preached in the Evening services.
Why not pick up or download a term card so you can read ahead at home beforehand?
