It is 1967, and as America's allies hesitate over whether to send more troops to Vietnam, and the strains of "All You Need is Love" echo from Abbey Road, students take to the streets of Wellington, New Zealand, to protest the war. Among them are Race, Candy, Chadwick, and FitzGerald, and their elusive, electrifying friend Morgan Tawhai. They are young and hopeful, and the world is all before them. Forty years later, in Washington, DC, Race's son Toby is navigating his own path across a landscape still trembling with the reverberations of 9/11.

Entre los billones de seres humanos que viven actualmente, dos de ellos se enamoran, se casan y, sin embargo, no resulta. Se eligieron el uno al otro, y aun así… Por sí solos, dos no pueden hacer que el ‘amor’ funcione: ni dos amantes, ni dos razas, ni dos naciones, ni dos hermanos, ni dos personas. Ansiamos conocer el amor verdadero. Esa profunda sed existe en cada mirada, en cada alma. Sin embargo, no está bajo nuestro control. Nuestro propio espíritu no es la fuente, el manantial - por eso, nuestro ‘amor’ se rompe. Cuando vemos esto, cuando sentimos esto, nuestros corazones...

This devotional (Part 2) has 20 entries, written for the Teen or young adult. It follows Part 1: ‘Lose Life to Save It’. Jesus was never legalistic or heavy-spirited. But he was serious in his teaching about putting our faith into action. He called us to ‘follow’ him, not just believe in him. This is because the blessing, the fruit, the freedom, the power, is in truly walking with Jesus. I hope this devotional brings joy to you, and also helps you build on your love for Jesus.

Jesus called his followers to share his message with others. ‘The Holy Spirit will testify about me, but you also must testify, because you have been with me.’ (John 15:26-27) His message, his ‘good news’, being his own name and person: ‘God with us.’ (Matthew 1:23) God has come. His name is Jesus Christ. He paid for our sin by his own death. He came back to life. He calls us to turn away from our sin, to believe in him. If we do this, we will be forgiven, and live forever with God. This is the message that messengers brought to you and me. And this is the message that we are to...

Esto es para las personas que sienten que han perdido la esperanza. O sea, todos hemos pasado por eso, pero algunos lo sentimos con más fuerza. Sé que darías tu vida por retirar cosas que has dicho. Has hecho cosas que hacen que tu corazón se hunda cada vez que piensas en ellas. Hay personas a las que has dañado, y pensar en sus tiernos ojos te rompe el corazón una y otra vez. Esto es lo que somos. Así es la vida. Así es la humanidad. Está rota hasta la médula. Jesús vino a ofrecernos una segunda oportunidad en la vida. ¿Te gustaría poder empezar de nuevo? Jesús nos ofrece la ...

¿Alguna vez has deseado poder empezar de nuevo? ¿Volver atrás en el tiempo y tomar un camino diferente? ¿Alguna vez te has preguntado cuándo y dónde perdiste tu verdadero yo? ¿Te miras al espejo y piensas: ‘Este no soy yo’? En esta vida, no podemos borrar las cosas ni retractarnos de lo que hicimos. La vida no perdona. Jesús – ‘Dios con nosotros’ – dijo que Él era la puerta a una nueva vida. Sus palabras fueron: ‘Yo soy la puerta; el que entre por esta puerta, que soy yo, será salvo’. (Juan 10:9) ¿Estás buscando esa puerta a una vida nueva? ¿Quieres empezar de ...

En este breve libro trabajo en orden inverso. Empiezo compartiendo qué hago ahora al tratar con las sectas, y luego voy atrás para explicar cómo llegué a eso a través de los años. Comparto algunas experiencias personales y versículos clave, que me han ayudado a crecer en esta área y a tener una base para tratar con las sectas. Me centro principalmente en el error central y común de todas, es decir, negar la verdadera identidad de Jesús y, por tanto, el verdadero mensaje del Evangelio. (2 Corintios 11:4) La verdadera identidad de Jesús es lo que se niega en todas las sectas (y en ...

El corazón puede romperse de muchas maneras y por muchas razones. Sin embargo, en este breve folleto te escribo a ti, que has sido herido por – contra quien ha pecado, de quien se ha aprovechado – otra persona. Me dirijo a los abusados. El corazón roto al que espero hablar es al que le fue robado algo, y ahora le cuesta esperar, sentir, creer. Jesús te ama. Él está contigo. Él persigue y juzgará al que te hizo daño. No sólo pedirá cuentas a tu agresor, sino que en este mismo momento Jesús anhela derramar Su Espíritu sanador sobre ti y darte un ‘corazón nuevo y un ...

Jesus met with people personally in homes, in the fields, at the lake, on the streets downtown. One of the very first things Jesus did after he rose from the dead, was meet 2 people on a long walk, and spent hours walking and talking with just them. (Luke 24:13-35) Do you have a sincere faith in Jesus? Do you wish you could meet with some other people and grow in your faith? You can! In this short booklet I share some practical ideas on how you can get this going…

Do you feel the weight of being alone. Do you feel lonely? There are some surface things that could probably change, no mystery there: relationships, people, kindness, activity, maybe a pet? But that comes and goes. There is a much deeper place in your heart, your soul, where only God can access, only God can fill. And it is here – between you and God – that the chasm of loneliness can be filled for evermore. 'Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.' (Psalm 42:7)

Ever wish you could start over? Go back in time and take a different road? Do you ever wonder when it was, where it was, you lost your true self? Do you look in the mirror and think, ‘This is not who I really am.’ In this life we can’t delete things, or take back things we did. Life is unforgiving. Jesus – ‘God with us’ – said he was a door to a new life. He literally said: ‘I am the door, and anyone who comes through me will be saved.’’ (John 10:9) Are you looking for that door to new life? Do you want to start over?

A short booklet that asks this most important question.

When we enter through the Gate of Jesus - by repentance and faith - we enter into his eternal kingdom. In that moment, we become citizens of heaven. Yes, we still find ourselves here on earth, but everything has changed. Earth is no longer our home nor our future. Once we belonged to this world, and it was all we had, all we could invest in and build. But now we belong to a different kingdom, we serve a different king, and we live to advance his kingdom.

The heart can break in many ways and for many reasons. However, in this short audiobook, I am writing to you who have been hurt - sinned against, taken advantage of - by another. I am writing to the abused. The broken heart I hope to speak to is the one that was robbed by man, and now finds it hard to hope, to feel, to believe. Jesus loves you. He is with you. He pursues and will judge him who hurt you.

The global humanitarian system, already under considerable strain, will soon be tested as never before.

Jesus told us there would be false teachers. It’s important to know this so that you are not surprised when you sense deception, nor ashamed if you are ever deceived. ‘Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves.’ (Matthew 7:15) Paul warned Timothy that a time would come when people would reject sound teaching and surround themselves with many teachers (‘many’) that would tell them what they wanted to hear. (2 Timothy 4:3) We see a time when Peter and James – the brother of Jesus – were deceived by some Bible ...
