Covenant Foundations by Alec Motyer, published by Christian Focus Publications (2024) This is well written, and in as simple language as it can get when the topic is Covenant Theology!

Love the Ones Who Drive You Crazy: Eight Truths for Pursuing Unity in your Church by Jamie Dunlop We all know the familiar texts on the importance of brotherly love and unity in the church.

Upcoming: The Scuttlebutt Letters

This is one to keep an eye out for – if you enjoy satire. Reminiscent of C S Lewis’ Screwtape Letters, Natalie Brand has cleverly written a series of letters from the Heart to the Tongue.
