We live in radical times when God is transforming us into His image. We need fathers. We also need mothers. God always intended that fathers and mothers would complement one another. Male and female He made them. Without good godly mothering so many children are not nourished and their dreams die in the womb.  May God breathe upon the mothers in Israel who will nourish, intercede and travail to bring forth His purposes. May they take their place alongside the fathers in this hour and provide a safe place for the orphans and for the abandoned ones, for the desolate and the lonely, for the dreamers and the intercessors-both in the Church and for those yet to come in that End Times almighty harvest of souls we are promised in this hour.

A sequel to Like Wildflowers, Suddenly.Once again, the stories in this volume explore the Jewish mindset of the first century, along with its traditions and worldview. They probe the depths of particular nuances behind the words of Jesus, showing how He crafted them to heal history—by deliberately visiting specific locations on very particular dates and engaging with carefully chosen individuals.Bent World, Bright Wings highlights the action of Jesus in two deeply defiled places, each weighed down by the massive spiritual payload that results from millennia of corruption.

Paul Gauguin became Tioka. James Cook became Terreeoboo. Arthur Phillip became Woollarawarre.These recent examples throw light on this ancient practice of friendship and kinship.

A companion volume to Dealing with Python: Spirit of Constriction. The most significant of the threshold points of life is the doorway into God's unique calling for us. He invites us through covenant to fulfil the destiny and purpose for which we were born. However, many of us fall at the threshold, rather than pass over it. We experience unremitting constriction, wasting, retaliation and forgetting--to such a degree that it's easy to doubt the promises of God. This pioneering work examines the spiritual implications of forgetting in relation to thresholds and covenants. Because the opposite of remembering is dismembering--dismembering of truth--the spirit of forgetting is able to bar the way into our calling. But there is an answer.

MORE PRECIOUS THAN PEARLS looks at nuances specifically related to women in the Hebrew text of the Bible that are often obscured in English translations. For example, the women of Israel did not give any jewelry towards the building of the golden calf. Another example: they were the first to give gold for the adornment of the Tabernacle. This book celebrates God's favour towards women and His surprising rewards for them because of their repeated faithfulness to the covenant. It includes prayers for women to use on their own behalf as well as prayers for mothers to speak over their children.
