Subtitled ’30 devotions for those who feel anything but’, the aim is to enable us to absorb biblical truths so we can experience this desired state in our busy lives. The introduction reminds us that stillness is a state of mind as much as a physical state. We can’t stop the world to achieve it, but we can carve it into our lives. We are given many practical tips and encouragements. Each chapter comprises a ‘bite-size stillness’ (a mantra to take into the day), introduction, Bible reading and commentary, prayer suggestions, stillness idea, and reflection. The number 30 may suggest a month’s duration. The author cautions against such a speedy reading and states that a section weekly, or even monthly, may prove much more beneficial, and allow us to go deeper into the stillness. This book is a treasure house of devotional material, and our hardest task will be choosing where to start exploring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Liz Pacey\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview by Tony Horsfall, author of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/products\/attentive-to-god\"\u003eAttentive to God\u003c\/a\u003e and many other titles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSometimes a book is worth buying for just one sentence.

Review by Liz Pacey\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003ePerhaps now, more than at any point in recent history, we crave what seems to be most inaccessible in our world – stillness. Subtitled ’30 devotions for those who feel anything but’, the aim is to enable us to absorb biblical truths so we can experience this desired state in our busy lives. The introduction reminds us that stillness is a state of mind as much as a physical state. We can’t stop the world to achieve it, but we can carve it into our lives. We are given many practical tips and encouragements. Each chapter comprises a ‘bite-size stillness’ (a mantra to take into the day), introduction, Bible reading and commentary, prayer suggestions, stillness idea, and reflection. The number 30 may suggest a month’s duration. The author cautions against such a speedy reading and states that a section weekly, or even monthly, may prove much more beneficial, and allow us to go deeper into the stillness. This book is a treasure house of devotional material, and our hardest task will be choosing where to start exploring.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eReviewed by Liz Pacey\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNoSpacing\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview by Tony Horsfall, author of \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.brfonline.org.uk\/products\/attentive-to-god\"\u003eAttentive to God\u003c\/a\u003e and many other titles\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSometimes a book is worth buying for just one sentence.

An Anglican chaplain at Cambridge University's Robinson College, the author writes engagingly of 'times of beginning that are born out of the ending of something else', using her own experiences alongside readings from Genesis, 1 Kings, Isaiah and the Gospels. Reviewed by Andy Goodliff Maggi Dawn is an Anglican Priest, theologian, university chaplain, singer, author, speaker and blogger. This book is a collection of bible readings and reflections for the season of advent. As Christmas seems to begin earlier and earlier each year, the season of Advent gets squeezed and this book reminds us that there are four weeks before Christmas begins. The style of the book reminds me of Tom Wright's For Everyone series as it communicates and reveals new depths to these well-known stories. The book is divided into six sections. Section one is all about beginnings and especially how the gospel writers begin their story. Section two and three take us back into Old Testament and Abraham, Elijah and Isaiah. Section four looks at angel-incidents in the Bible and explores how God speaks to us. Section five draws us into the story of Mary and Joseph and section six is headed endings and we engage with shepherds and kings. Some of my favourite of the reflections - 'Coming, ready or not' and 'No room at the inn?' - first appeared on Maggi's blog over the last few years. In 'Coming, ready or not', we find a baby will come whether everything is in place or not and so Maggi says 'it is with God. He will be born in our world whether we're ready or not, deserving or not, prepared or not. The incarnation of God will defy our plans, upset the organized and come with ease and joy to undeserving sinners and the poor in spirit. (p.105). 'No room at the inn?' explores the Greek word kataluma, which is often translated as 'inn'. Maggi shows us the word is actually more likely to mean 'a large family living room used for eating and receiving guests' (p.115), which puts a different emphasis on how we read the story. Let me encourage you to get a copy of this book to go with your Advent calendar.

Endings and beginnings are characteristic of human beings. And for Christians, Christmas marks the start of a new era. While the Christ story deals with cosmic changes, she explores lives mostly lived in the in-between times, in the now and not-yet, where the experience of God can be rich and satisfying. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUsing the familiar pattern of daily Bible readings and comment, Maggi Dawn reflects on six areas of Biblical witness: gospels, patriarchs, prophets, angels, the holy family and the characters of the birth narratives.

An Anglican chaplain at Cambridge University's Robinson College, the author writes engagingly of 'times of beginning that are born out of the ending of something else', using her own experiences alongside readings from Genesis, 1 Kings, Isaiah and the Gospels. Reviewed by Andy Goodliff Maggi Dawn is an Anglican Priest, theologian, university chaplain, singer, author, speaker and blogger. This book is a collection of bible readings and reflections for the season of advent. As Christmas seems to begin earlier and earlier each year, the season of Advent gets squeezed and this book reminds us that there are four weeks before Christmas begins. The style of the book reminds me of Tom Wright's For Everyone series as it communicates and reveals new depths to these well-known stories. The book is divided into six sections. Section one is all about beginnings and especially how the gospel writers begin their story. Section two and three take us back into Old Testament and Abraham, Elijah and Isaiah. Section four looks at angel-incidents in the Bible and explores how God speaks to us. Section five draws us into the story of Mary and Joseph and section six is headed endings and we engage with shepherds and kings. Some of my favourite of the reflections - 'Coming, ready or not' and 'No room at the inn?' - first appeared on Maggi's blog over the last few years. In 'Coming, ready or not', we find a baby will come whether everything is in place or not and so Maggi says 'it is with God. He will be born in our world whether we're ready or not, deserving or not, prepared or not. The incarnation of God will defy our plans, upset the organized and come with ease and joy to undeserving sinners and the poor in spirit. (p.105). 'No room at the inn?' explores the Greek word kataluma, which is often translated as 'inn'. Maggi shows us the word is actually more likely to mean 'a large family living room used for eating and receiving guests' (p.115), which puts a different emphasis on how we read the story. Let me encourage you to get a copy of this book to go with your Advent calendar.

He speaks of the expectation that Messy Church congregations have 'stepped into the rubber dinghy but won't properly be on the voyage until they have boards the Sunday church ship'. The essayists, in different ways, challenge this assumption. In doing so, they address the fundamental questions what church is and what it is for.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eJean Pienaar's chapter 'Making sacred space in messy churches' is particularly interesting in the comparison it makes between the different types of sacred space in a monastery and in a messy church setting. She explores the way in which Messy Church, instead of being at the periphery of church, reflects in its format the core values and purpose of worship.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eIf Pienaar speaks of the way in which Messy Church is deeper than it first appears, Dr Irene Smale adds that its influence is wider than is often thought. She speaks of relationships and pastoral contacts that go far wider than the monthly meetings.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eThe essayists are brave and unflinching in their enquiries of Messy Church, and dare to ask questions that we often fail to ask of traditional church. Does Messy Church make disciples? How do we support those for whom Messy Church doesn't 'work'? Is it too messy, too expensive, not engaging enough for boys?\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eOne criticism that could be levied at this books is that there are more questions that answers. On the whole, I think that is a good sign. The essayists, all Messy Church enthusiasts, are not overkeen to leap to its defence in the face of difficult issues. When necessary, they allow the questions to hang in the air in a way that is appropriately messy.\u003c\/p\u003e\r\n\u003cp\u003eKaren Rooms thanks Lucy Moore for 'giving away Messy Church', so that it can be adapted and contextualised for each parish.

He speaks of the expectation that Messy Church congregations have 'stepped into the rubber dinghy but won't properly be on the voyage until they have boards the Sunday church ship'. The essayists, in different ways, challenge this assumption. In doing so, they address the fundamental questions what church is and what it is for.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eJean Pienaar's chapter 'Making sacred space in messy churches' is particularly interesting in the comparison it makes between the different types of sacred space in a monastery and in a messy church setting. She explores the way in which Messy Church, instead of being at the periphery of church, reflects in its format the core values and purpose of worship.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf Pienaar speaks of the way in which Messy Church is deeper than it first appears, Dr Irene Smale adds that its influence is wider than is often thought. She speaks of relationships and pastoral contacts that go far wider than the monthly meetings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe essayists are brave and unflinching in their enquiries of Messy Church, and dare to ask questions that we often fail to ask of traditional church. Does Messy Church make disciples? How do we support those for whom Messy Church doesn't 'work'? Is it too messy, too expensive, not engaging enough for boys?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne criticism that could be levied at this books is that there are more questions that answers. On the whole, I think that is a good sign. The essayists, all Messy Church enthusiasts, are not overkeen to leap to its defence in the face of difficult issues. When necessary, they allow the questions to hang in the air in a way that is appropriately messy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKaren Rooms thanks Lucy Moore for 'giving away Messy Church', so that it can be adapted and contextualised for each parish. I finished the book excited about where Messy Church would go next, and its potential to play a leading part in the Church in the years ahead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Revd Catherine Pickford, Team Rector, Benwell Team, Newcastle-upon-Tyne\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e"}

This is the book that proves it’s anything but.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book does live up to this claim: Using only a few pages per book of the Bible, Kitchen presents the contents of each of the 66 books. His style is fresh and attractive. He nearly always brings out the essence of the biblical book, paying little attention to questions of authorship and date. He seldom refers to chapter and verse numbers, allowing the text to be read continuously, and he adds helpful contemporary applications. The tone of the summaries is light-hearted and pleasantly positive, even for the less ‘attractive’ parts of the Bible, but each sentence is full of information so one has to read attentively. Paragraphs have six lines or less, but the lines are long due to the square shape of the book (7 by 7 inch).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy minor quibbles include the chapter on Revelation: it’s too short and fails to mention Jesus as Lord of history. Hebrews also deserves better. The chapter on the Psalms merely offers samples, nothing on types of Psalms. Like all quotations in the book, these are probably in Kitchen’s own translation, although this is never stated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI could mention some more quibbles, but my overall verdict is that this is a very useful book for many readers of the Bible, regardless of age and background. Let me finish with a random sample from Amos: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eIt's at about this time that the leaders decide they want a more positive message. Amos is told to make money in his own country and leave them alone. ‘I don’t do this for cash,’ he replies. ‘I actually run a sheep business… plus I’ve got a few fig trees. I do this because I have to – for God. Getting rid of me doesn’t get rid of the bad news.’\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis short piece brings out the strengths of the book: sparkling language and a good grasp of the Bible.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe Revd Dr Pieter J.

Kitchen has done a unique job in bringing the Bible to life in a fresh way, engaging our attention through his fun-filled approach. It is easy to read yet packed with good news in a nutshell, each book ending with a summary written in a challenging way. It will appeal to young and old, whether knowledgeable or engaging with the Bible for the first time. The author has made the whole Bible accessible, alive and full of insight as we weave through 66 snapshots – each book in turn, all given the importance they deserve. I recommend this wonderful book to congregations generally, but more specifically to young families who attend ‘Fresh Expressions’ of church. Many may have come recently into the Christian family and the Bible can be a daunting volume to take on board. Bible in Ten will change that by giving a beautiful glimpse into scripture and providing the desire to dig deeper. This book is an exciting innovation!

Review by Donald Kerr\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Bible is still recognised as the best selling book of all time, with over 4 billion copies produced worldwide. Nevertheless, it can be more than a little daunting even for those who are motivated to delve into it. The variety of translations and paraphrases does help, of course, but it still feels like a big book. Furthermore, the different life situations and varied types of literature can easily confuse. If only there was a simple way in which we could appreciate the overall message of each book which would then whet our appetite to go back and dig deeper.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is the challenge which Dave Kitchen has taken up in \u003cem\u003eBible in Ten\u003c\/em\u003e, subtitled ‘Any book of the Bible cracked in ten minutes or less.’ The ‘ten’ refers to the 10 minutes maximum which the reader spends in reading the overview of each book. However, this is much more than an introductory textbook. Each chapter starts with a short paragraph designed to take us into the issues which the biblical book in question raises and finishes with some thoughts or reflections to help us apply the book’s message to ourselves.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDave Kitchen is by profession a teacher (now retired) but is also a broadcaster, poet and Methodist local preacher. He is thus an excellent communicator. His style is at once racy, clear and compassionate. He has lived within the biblical text so deeply that he is able to express its heart in a manner both simple and profound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWho might benefit from this book? Those starting out on the Christian pathway who want to find a way into scripture and those who have journeyed for many years but would still value an overview of those parts of the Bible which they have tended to skip over. Teachers and preachers will find fresh inspiration here and Bible study groups will find plenty of material to aid their learning and discussion. To quote Abby Guinness, the head of Spring Harvest: ‘Whatever your biblical starting point there is something of value to you. Dave Kitchen has put in the hard miles of study to give us a shortcut to understanding the big picture.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","published_at":"2022-10-10T14:14:56+01:00","created_at":"2022-10-10T14:14:55+01:00","vendor":"David Kitchen","type":"Paperback","tags":["Biblical engagement","Church life","Discipleship","For churches","For individuals","Glassboxx","KCLC"],"price":1299,"price_min":1299,"price_max":1299,"available":true,"price_varies":false,"compare_at_price":null,"compare_at_price_min":0,"compare_at_price_max":0,"compare_at_price_varies":false,"variants":[{"id":41997407256767,"title":"Paperback","option1":"Paperback","option2":null,"option3":null,"sku":"9781800391512","requires_shipping":true,"taxable":false,"featured_image":{"id":33430415671487,"product_id":7367016087743,"position":1,"created_at":"2022-10-10T14:14:55+01:00","updated_at":"2022-10-10T14:14:57+01:00","alt":null,"width":2102,"height":2102,"src":"\/\/www.brfresources.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BibleinTen.jpg?v=1665407697","variant_ids":[41997407256767]},"available":true,"name":"Bible in Ten: Any book of the Bible cracked in ten minutes or less - Paperback","public_title":"Paperback","options":["Paperback"],"price":1299,"weight":385,"compare_at_price":null,"inventory_management":"shopify","barcode":"9781800391512","featured_media":{"alt":null,"id":26020738334911,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2102,"width":2102,"src":"\/\/www.brfresources.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BibleinTen.jpg?v=1665407697"}},"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_allocations":[],"quantity_rule":{"min":1,"max":null,"increment":1}}],"images":["\/\/www.brfresources.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BibleinTen.jpg?v=1665407697"],"featured_image":"\/\/www.brfresources.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BibleinTen.jpg?v=1665407697","options":["Format"],"media":[{"alt":null,"id":26020738334911,"position":1,"preview_image":{"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2102,"width":2102,"src":"\/\/www.brfresources.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BibleinTen.jpg?v=1665407697"},"aspect_ratio":1.0,"height":2102,"media_type":"image","src":"\/\/www.brfresources.org.uk\/cdn\/shop\/products\/BibleinTen.jpg?v=1665407697","width":2102}],"requires_selling_plan":false,"selling_plan_groups":[],"content":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eFor anyone who wants to crack open the Bible, poet, broadcaster and teacher Dave Kitchen provides a lively introduction to every single book in ten minutes or less.

This is the book that proves it’s anything but.’\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe book does live up to this claim: Using only a few pages per book of the Bible, Kitchen presents the contents of each of the 66 books. His style is fresh and attractive. He nearly always brings out the essence of the biblical book, paying little attention to questions of authorship and date. He seldom refers to chapter and verse numbers, allowing the text to be read continuously, and he adds helpful contemporary applications. The tone of the summaries is light-hearted and pleasantly positive, even for the less ‘attractive’ parts of the Bible, but each sentence is full of information so one has to read attentively. Paragraphs have six lines or less, but the lines are long due to the square shape of the book (7 by 7 inch).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMy minor quibbles include the chapter on Revelation: it’s too short and fails to mention Jesus as Lord of history. Hebrews also deserves better. The chapter on the Psalms merely offers samples, nothing on types of Psalms. Like all quotations in the book, these are probably in Kitchen’s own translation, although this is never stated.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eI could mention some more quibbles, but my overall verdict is that this is a very useful book for many readers of the Bible, regardless of age and background.

The author has made the whole Bible accessible, alive and full of insight as we weave through 66 snapshots – each book in turn, all given the importance they deserve. I recommend this wonderful book to congregations generally, but more specifically to young families who attend ‘Fresh Expressions’ of church. Many may have come recently into the Christian family and the Bible can be a daunting volume to take on board.
