The front cover of Growing Together in Faith by Emma Parker and Sarah Strand. The endorsement by Chris Curtis, Chief Executive of Youthscape, reads: Emma and Sarah write with the rigor of academic study and the heart of pastoral care to help the church embrace intergenerational ministry putting children and young people where they belong at the centre of the church community. Making a compelling Biblical case for the vital role of children and young people in the church, they introduce us to a bigger vision. Convincing and encouraging.

The front cover of Christian Women at University: Faith, Feminism and Feeling at Home by Jenny Morgans. The endorsement quote form Dr Nicola Slee reads: Jenny Morgans' impressive study conveys wide and deep knowledge of young women's transition to university and the impact of this on their identity and faith. There is authority in her account of this complex transition, borne out of her research and work as a university chaplain. Every page is thick with learning, yet it is carried lightly and it makes for a compelling read. I cannot speak too highly of it.
It's October, and we have FOUR new books out this month!
Here's the first: Jenny Morgans' Christian Women at University,
uncovering the resources and strategies Christian women employ in trying to feel at home at university.
