Welcome to a new section on our website where we will introduce you to books that will help you study the Bible for yourself, find out more about what it means to follow Jesus, or dig deeper into a passage or topic preached about during one of our Sunday Services!
If you haven't already, please visit our book collection located near the sound/projection desk in the back of the main sanctuary and check-out a book for up to 3 weeks or visit our Book Resource to reserve a book that someone in our congregation owns and is happy to share with you. If you are a regular member of our church, click here for the Book Resource list.
The following are some books you can purchase from a third-party online book shop. In time, we plan to add more books to this list! Happy Reading!

Becoming a liberated disciple
John Valentine
Paperback 160 pages
ISBN 9781844743940
Published 16/10/2009
Cooking breakfast, driving to work, sorting out the laundry, answering e-mails ... All of these activities are as much part of our daily discipleship as praying, singing in church or teaching Sunday school. For the spiritual life is first of all a life.
'This book grounds discipleship in the life of the individual and the church, but sees its outworking as being in the world,' says the author.
Jesus does not call us to a journey of guilt and failure, stuffy religion or a kind of churchy straitjacket. He calls us to a life of obedience, harmony, joy and peace. We become 'liberated disciples'.
It's about becoming a new and different person through the cross of Jesus, and then finding that in Jesus we have found our truest and most authentic selves.
Currently available online at the InterVarsity Press website.
