The Dark Night of the Shed (Nick Page)
Men, the midlife crisis, spirituality - and sheds A new bike - running the marathon - splashing out on a sports car - having an affair - taking up triathlon - upping sticks and moving to the country - getting divorced - even going into the church... There's a point in a man's life where he looks around him and asks whether this is really where he wants to be - what he wanted to do with his life. And even if he's achieved all his childhood dreams, maybe that's not enough any more. Nick Page has been there, and he decided to build a shed. Not to answer the question, but so that he'd at least be able to get some peace to think about it properly. Join him on a journey of discovery, into what the midlife crisis really is, and whether there's a better way to go at it than frittering away time and money trying to pretend you're really younger than you are. Review "I have to say I loved it, I love Nick Page's writing, I love his humour... he's got some very serious points to make which are particularly relevant to men, but to anyone really." (Clare Balding - BBC Radio 2) Nick Page wrote about the male mid life crisis for The Telegraph: In our forties and fifties levels of happiness and life satisfaction dip to their lowest levels - here's how to deal with the turbulant middle ages (The Telegraph) The Dark Night of the Shed (Hodder) is a vulnerable, honest and amusing exploration of why many men have so much and yet feel like failures. Why are our cities full of middle aged men in lycra? Why do so many men reach the top of the mountain only to realise there is nothing there? (Harry Farley Christian Today) The Dark Night of the Shed - Nick Page. There's a point in a man's life where he looks around him and asks whether this is really where he wants to be. Nick Page has been there, and he decided to build a shed. Not to answer the question, but so that he'd at least be able to get some peace to think about it properly. (Gransnet) Much knowledge from psychology, especially Jung, sociology, and popular culture, is expressed in an always readable, informative way. (The Church Times) If I had to choose an author to sit in a pub with, put the world to rights, enjoy a beer, share a few jokes and prod the hairy subject of God and the male midlife crisis with a stick, there are few I'd choose over Nick Page...Few other books can provide that sense of a journey, genuinely do-able devotional suggestions, Biblical insight, lessons from Old Testament heroes and Percy the Park Keeper, generously interspersed with wit, good humour and some healthy self-deprecation. (Russ Bravo Inspire Magazine) An amusing book, but one with a profound message worth attending to. (The Irish Catholic) A funny but insightful book about mid-life crisis in men... this new book deserves a wider readership. (The Church Newspaper) A witty, deep book... One to buy as an early Christmas present for a man in your life. (Woman Alive Magazine) Join him on a journey of discovery, into what the midlife crisis really is, and whether there's a better way to go at it than frittering away time and money trying to pretend you're really younger than you are.

The Full Blessing of Pentecost (Andrew Murray)
When Paul came to Ephesus, he found some disciples and asked them, Did ye receive the Holy Spirit when ye believed? They replied that they had not heard that there even was a Holy Spirit. Many Christians are in a similar position today: soundly saved and born again of the Holy Spirit, but not walking in the power of the Spirit. Andrew Murray says that the biggest lack in the church today and the single solution to all its problems is the real moving of the Spirit. Whilst so much time is wasted with men’s ideas and men’s methods, if we were simply to seek the power of the Holy Spirit and allow Him to work, the whole Christian landscape would change. In an age when methodology is on the increase, Andrew Murray takes us back to basic biblical principles, showing us how to experience the Holy Spirit’s power, and why it is the one thing needful.

The Great Divorce (C.S. Lewis)
C.S. Lewis’s dazzling allegory about heaven and hell – and the chasm fixed between them – is one of his most brilliantly imaginative tales, as he takes issue with the ideas in William Blake’s ‘The Marriage of Heaven and Hell’. In a dream, the narrator boards a bus on a drizzly afternoon and embarks on an incredible voyage through Heaven and Hell. He meets a host of supernatural beings far removed from his expectations, from the disgruntled, ghostly inhabitants of Hell to the angels and souls who dwell on the plains of Heaven. This powerful, exquisitely written fantasy is one of C.S. Lewis’s most enduring works of fiction and a profound meditation on good and evil

The Heavenly Footman (John Bunyan)
Throughout Bunyan’s great allegories his prime concern was that people would be able to discern the way to heaven. The ‘Footman’ is an athlete dogged in the pursuit of ‘winning’ the race. Bunyan wants us to be able run the race of the Christian life and finish the course so that we might all meet in Heaven. As he states in this book:– ‘Farewell, I wish our souls may meet with comfort at the journey’s end.’ Based on the text ‘so run that ye may obtain’ (1 Cor. 9:24), Bunyan’s terse and racy style gives us vital guidance on how to complete the journey. This is regarded as one of the classic texts to have come from the Puritan era on Christian living. Bunyan is well known for his perceptiveness in describing human motivation and thought processes with discernment as he gives us the ‘description of the man who gets to heaven.’

The Jubilee Gospel (Kim Tan)
Imagine a group of forty adults living in community, assisting each other to buy houses, sharing material wealth and releasing the surplus to help others. This was not a cult but a practical outworking of the biblical principles of Jubilee. Kim Tan was part of this group, and through The Jubilee Gospel seeks to unpack these incredibly challenging and mostly unknown principles of sacrificial generosity, stewardship and social holiness. Starting with the Old Testament institution of Jubilee and tracing the themes through the rest of the Bible, we discover a holy way of living that reflects God’s justice and compassion, and that embraces kingdom politics and economics. What may seem buried deep in the early parts of the Old Testament is brought up to date by Kim as we’re confronted not only by Jesus’ teaching but with principles of wealth distribution, cancellation of debt, hospitality and storehouses. As biblical integrity meets radical ideas, soaked in the holy justice of God, the end result is a remarkably life-altering book.
