God Is Closer Than You Think - John Ortberg
Ref: 37
Someone who loves you is waiting to see you... The Bible is filled with examples of an intimate God, a God keenly interested in connecting with ordinary people. He promises to be with us. He says he will personally guide us. Yet somehow, intimacy with God eludes us. Caught up in the mainstream of life, we know we're missing something vital. But how do we attain it?
In his new book, John Ortberg shows how you can enjoy a vibrant, moment-by-moment relationship with your heavenly Father. Not some abstract theological concept, but the real deal - intimate connection with a deeply personal God.

Subtitled, "Parenting a child with a life-threatening illness", this book examines the emotional, spiritual and practical implications of a child's serious illness, not only for the child and parents but also for the whole family. From yearning for 'how things used to be', through learning to be flexible, to listen, to rest, and moving on towards helping the child reach independence, this book offers support and insight for all on this hard and lonely journey.

Kisses of Sunshine - for Women
Ref: 41
This is a book of heartfelt stories from women who love God with all their hearts... There's nothing quite as comforting as reading the stories of women who allow you to laugh out loud at their crazy antics, empathise with their imperfect choices, feel their hurts, celebrate their successes, and point you to the truth of God's Word. Kisses of Sunshine for Women reminds you that God wants to fill your life with light and love.

Seven Myths of Youth Ministry - Nigel James and Gary Smith
Ref: 42
Seven myths have grown up around youth work and they are dampening the passion needed to excel in it. Using a combination of biblical truth, real-life example, and comments from a variety of youth leaders themselves, Nigel James identifies each of the seven myths, explains why they can be damaging, and establishes the correct thinking on the specific issue raised.
The myths include: "We really make a difference in one hour a week", "Size isn't important", "We don't preach - we're just sowing the seeds", "You have to ask them what they want", "Young people lack commitment", "Young people are the future of the church", "We aren't in the entertainment business". The melting of these myths will help you focus your energy and re-ignite your passion!
