A new, practical dip-in guide to the key elements of preaching. Packed with fresh ideas and all the essentials a preacher needs before stepping up to the lectern, this brilliant handbook contains confidence-boosting material for both the experienced preacher and the novice alike. Features an A-Z of preaching, 26 illustrations by John Paterson, tips on before, during and after preaching.A must-have companion for all worship leaders!Here is Richard's address to future preachers:"Dear Future Preacher,Since you are a merchant of truth, my best advice to you is to be true in all that you do.Be true to the Word of God. It is your friend, your source, your companion and yourmaster. Do not stand behind it, negelecting you duty as its interpreter. Do not standin front of it so that it is obscured from view. Stand beside it and point out its beauty,intricacy and depth to all who will hear.Be true to the people of God. Understand them, accept them, tolerate them and lovethem. You must interpret then at least as much as you do the scripture - and it will bea harder job, for they are ever changing! Unless you seek with all your heart to understandthem, you will be unable to build a bridge from scripture into their lives whichwill bear the weight of eternal truth.Be true to the Spirit of God. Allow him to ruffle you, to inflate your tired soul or deflateyour puffy ego. Listen to him in the quietnes of the study and heed him in thepulpit too. His way, even when unpredicatble, will always be best.Be true to yourself. God chose you to be a preacher, not some better or more glamorousversion of yourself. All the dents and bashes and quirks you have picked up alongthe way are precious, like the patina on a piece of beautiful old furniture - they add toyour value as a preacher.Preaching is a high privilege and a noble calling. Treat it with respect and you will havea ringside seat at the weekly theatre of miracles where God turns rocks into diamondsand introduces forever into today." - Richard Littledale

Have you ever wondered how many stars there are in the great big sky? I want to tell you about the littlest star. He wasn't as sparkly or as exciting as some of the other stars, but one night the littlest star was given the biggest, most important job of all... This enchanting Christmas tale about the star that shone down on the baby Jesus was originally written, illustrated, designed, printed and placed on sale within three weeks to raise money for the Shooting Star Chase children's hospices. This edition of Richard Littledale's delightful story has been reillustrated with beautiful artwork Dubravka Kolanovic, and makes a charming Christmas gift, evoking the wonder of the special night.

Raw, honest and personal thoughts to comfort you on the journey through grief.Grief can often feel like a gnawing homesickness for a place where you used to live, but can never return to. Richard Littledale has written a series of short, candid thoughts and reflections from his own experience of widowhood that will resonate and bring comfort andunderstanding to anyone experiencing bereavement. These thoughts are written as postcards from the land of grief, as they are used to convey a message from this foreign country of bereavement. Postcards are, by definition, a small snapshot of a feeling at anyone time, not long and drawn out essays, and these thoughts provide an accessible way to identifyfeelings and draw hope from a fellow traveller. Richard also includes practical resources and advice on the grieving process, and reflects on how his faith in God has sustained him. The book is deliberately designed to be able to dip in and out of as required at the point of need. It is also useful for those who want to give a helpful book to comfort a friend, or for anyone wanting to help understand how their bereaved loved one might beling.

An accessible and thought-provoking devotional look at the nature of discipleship through the lens of pilgrimage. What do we learn about God whilst on the move which could not be learnt whilst stationary? From Abraham, Moses, Ruth to Jesus himself and the apostle Paul, the Bible is full of stories of people on the move and Journey looks at what we can learn from looking at the Christian life as one of pilgrimage. The chapters cover subjects such as provisions needed on the journey, communications and companions along the way, distractions from the path, the growth of 'new monasticism', and death as 'journey's end'. With questions for personal reflection included after each chapter this is much more than a book about pilgrimage, it encourages the reader to learn to journey through life in an attitude of pilgrimage -revealing that it is often in the very act of journeying that we find our deepest spiritual insights.
