‘The one thing that is necessary, in life as in art,’ Tolstoy once said,’ is to tell the truth.’ The Gospel in Brief is one of the most challenging and unsettling interpretations of the significance of Jesus ever written, which has intrigued and unsettled Christians, agnostics and atheists alike.
Leo Tolstoy believed that the existence of God could be neither proved nor disproved and that the meaning of life lay beyond the limits of our minds. After much suffering and study, Tolstoy came to believe that the answer to the riddle of how we should live well can be found in the teachings of Jesus. The Gospel in Brief is his provocative synthesis of the four Gospels. Here, he believed, was the essential message of Jesus, a simple key to the good and purposeful life, with all the clutter and superstition of priests and theologians swept away.
A profound insight to the greatest test we all face: to be beside someonewe love - a parent, a partner, a child – as they slip away from us. Grace Sheppard draws on the experience of caring for her dying
husband, David Sheppard, England cricket captain and later Bishop of Liverpool. She looks at what drives us to run away from the difficult times and emotions. The key to Living with Dying is friendship.
Whether you are someone with little or no faith, Living with Dying will help you see that looking for God in an expectant sense, and developing an intimate relationship with him makes a positive difference to the supply of energy and hope in caring.

Once seen as a major enemy of faith, psychology is now recognised as a key ally and friend by many Christians. Leslie J Francis offers a careful description of each of the eight components of psychological type (extraversion and introversion, sensing and intuition, feeling and thinking, judging and perceiving), together with a brief test to help you locate your own psychological preferences. He shows how such analysis can lead to greater self-awareness, greater insight into others and into the nature of the God who created men and women in God’s own image.
The Exploring Faith: Theology for Life series is designed for people who want to take Christianity seriously. The series presents key subjects in a lively and easy-to-use format. The books are ideal for those who want to learn more about Christian faith and ministry.
