The Preacher Wore Black Leather by Loree Lough

  Matt Maxwell wondered a lot about changing his first name to Former: Former Marine. Former minister. Former husband. One by one, he’d lost them all. After losing his wife to his church deacon, he’d packed his battered military duffel, gassed up his ancient motorcycle, and put Baltimore in the Harley’s rearview mirrors. On an unusually cold and snowy Texas night, the Sportster breaks down along the Interstate. Out of luck and nearly broke, Matt’s lured by a bright red sign that reads SUNDOWN DINER. Inside, he meets the owners, the town’s three-man sheriff’s department, and a mechanic who thinks he can fix the old bike. Icy weather and the upcoming Thanksgiving holiday make that impossible, and Matt finds himself stranded in Reliable, where everyone seems determined to keep him from the road to anywhere that isn’t Baltimore. Once the Harley is roadworthy, will he put Reliable behind him? Or does God have other plans for the down-on-his-luck pastor? my review:  Just finished Th...

Baptism. A guide for the dry by Rich Baxter

For Christians, when we get baptised is probably one of the easiest times we can invite unbelieving friends, family members and colleagues to church, to hear (and see!) the good news about Jesus Christ. With this in mind, I thought it would be great to give visitors something to take away with them to remember what they saw and heard. Hence this booklet! In the booklet I use one question and two pictures to help get people right to the heart of what their friend’s baptism is all about, and how it all relates to Jesus and his gospel. Here's an extract: The beautiful feast of life with God begins now and lasts forever. But how do I get into this great feast? Surely I need to get myself home for a good wash. Get out the shower gel. Wash off that selfishness. Then, pop down to Moss Bros or John Lewis for a nice new suit or evening dress. Turn over a new leaf and start to live right. Then I can attend the king’s feast, right? Once I’ve scrubbed away the pride and started to be humble. T...
