The Print of the Nails by Hugh Hillyard-Parker (Ed.) 


By Hugh Hillyard-Parker (Ed.)
  (
£18.99) 

All the writings in The Print of the Nails appeared in the Church Times between 2000 and 2021, and have been edited and collated by Hugh Hillyard Parker, accompanied by a witty introduction from Paul Handley – 67 pieces in all, from a galaxy of  accomplished writers with their fingers on the  pulse of Christian thinking: modern but orthodox, original yet devotional, full of wisdom and light.  

This book will enrich your life, for it reminds us in this soundbite age that thoughtful written words and well-constructed arguments are still powerful forms of communication.  The essay is not yet dead.

Enjoy this book – it will illuminate the Easter season for you, not just in  2022, but in the years to come.

Women of Holy Week: An Easter Journey in Nine Stories

By Paula Gooder (£9.99) 

This little Lenten treasure is a joy to read and handle, with beautiful illustrations of the nine stories of these women by Ally Barrett. The author leads us through Lent with a collection of the women’s stories - women whose names are lesser known from the Bible and whose lives have not been explored in detail – until now!

​Each woman’s story is given to us 
in simple everyday language using the Bible’s information but written in an imaginative, modern way. And each story is imaginatively illustrated with particular insight and  understanding; the collection then forming a triptych.  

Enjoy and give respect to these women…you will not regret treating  yourself or a dear one to this book!
