Bereavement: Bible readings for special times
Author: Jean Watson
£3.99
This book of 24 undated reflections draws comfort and inspiration from the Bible and from experience for those who are going through a time of bereavement, as well as providing insight for those wanting to support others who are bereaved. Jean Watson suggests how it might feel to get through the dark days and to move, however slowly, from `getting by’ with help, to `getting a life’ in which living with loss goes alongside the gains in terms of new insights on faith and life and a greater ability to empathise with others.

At Sea With God
Seasons of Life, Spiritual Growth
At Sea With God cleverly considers the notion of seafaring as a model for our spiritual journey and invites us to leave the safety of the boatyard for the uncertainty and risk of a voyage across uncharted waters to a mysterious destination. Drawing on seven vivid images, At Sea with God casts a beautiful new light on:
The vessels that carry each of us through a lifetime of events
Cargo, which has the potential to sustain us or to weigh us down
The process of setting sail for unfamiliar destinations
Navigating uncharted waters, even when the best path is difficult to discern
Taming fear during storms and shipwrecks
Rejoicing in the serenity of calm seas and dealing with the times when we feel we are going nowhere
Choosing the best time and place to drop anchor
Written in gentle prose reminiscent of Henri Nouwen's and C. S. Lewis's, At Sea with God offers a short course in strengthening the soul using meditative tradition. For Christians of all denominations, Margaret Silf has created a safe harbour to savour again and again.

The Dark Night of the Shed: men, the midlife crisis, spirituality – and sheds
Seasons of Life, Spiritual Growth
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.

Prayer and reflections on a journey with God through the seasons of life.
In her introduction, Valerie Hicks writes:
'These prayers and reflections are the outcome of a journey that began in September 2008. I had just begun a three-month period of study leave. I was spiritually in a wilderness, but during this time of study, and prayer, I began this new journey with God. Wherever you are on your journey with God may you find the reflections of help.'
