Soul Fuel
A Daily Devotional
"Any strength I have tends to come from the quiet moments at the start of my day, when I am on my own, taking time to be still before God. Starting like this really helps. It is like food - and good fuel for the soul."
In this book, Bear shares the stories behind many of his most daring expeditions for the first time. From his free fall parachute accident that left him with a broken back to his near-death experience in a storm off the coast of Greenland, Bear shows how every feat of adventure is grounded in his Christian faith.
In this open, brave and honest book, Bear explores the big themes of friendship, failure, courage, risk and many more in a series of daily readings, and shows us how we can face each day with peace, purpose and power.

Beyond Confirmation
Baptism and Confirmation are both new beginnings in the Christian journey, but while baptism is more like birth, confirmation is more like graduation from college. And like graduation , confirmation is best seen as a beginning of a new chapter of life, rather than an end.
This book takes a look at the next steps after confirmation, and how we can ensure that we continue to grow as Christians in the months and years to come. It covers areas such as knowing God, what it means to be disciples, being part of the "body of Christ" (the church), sharing our faith with others, and living as Christians in our local community.

Knowing God Through the Year
J.I.Packer
" How can we turn our knowledge about God into knowledge of God? The rule for doing so is simple but demanding. It is that we turn each truth that we learn about God into matter for meditation before God, leading to prayer and praise to God.
Knowing God is a more complex business than knowing another person. If we spend the rest of our lives at it, there will still be more to comprehend. But the marvel of it is that God's riches are opened up to us to explore." J.I.Packer
