| Leadership What does it take: · to become a true spiritual leader? · to find God's way and to walk in it with such integrity that others want to follow? · to be prepared to accept the responsibility of being someone others look to for direction? Taking the ultimate example found in Jesus, Philip Greenslade draws on his experience and enthusiasm to outline the characteristics of a true leader. Leadership offers an inspiring and challenging model for Christian leaders today through four fascinating sections. This book is more than a selection of techniques, methodologies and psychological insights.

| A Passion for God’s Story A Passion for God's Story presents a vision of the "Big Story" of "what on earth is God doing?" This accessible survey introduces the Bible as a whole and shows how the important pieces of the biblical narrative fit together in their right context and perspective. The Bible tells the story in the broadest way of the implementing of God's kingdom rule in history through a series of covenantal arrangements -- all in pursuit of a coherent redemptive plan -- the ultimate goal of which is new creation. -- Explores the covenantal commitments of God in Scripture. -- Considers the strategic plan of God as it is revealed in the Bible. -- Applies the overarching universal metanarrative to the local and the particular. -- Approaches the Bible as a whole. -- Encourages us to look at contemporary life from within the biblical world. -- Stimulates faith, understanding and mission. |

| Voice from the Hills In Voice from the Hills, Philip Greenslade takes the original step of linking together a study of the Sermon on the Mount with one on the seven "words" of Jesus spoken from the cross cries from another hill. Philip holds deeply the conviction that discipleship and cross go together, for "It takes nothing less than the cross of God's Son to implement in us the Sermon on the Mount. The cost of discipleship (to us) reflects however dimly the cost of salvation (to God) paid at the cross. "Costly discipleship can seem a daunting prospect, but Philip shows that when we fully understand Jesus' sacrifice for us there is no other response to His extravagant love and grace and as the Spirit empowers us to live the holy lives God intends us to live, so we reflect His glory to others and draw them closer to salvation. |

| Ministering Angles Be empowered for more fruitful service. Instead of looking to marketing techniques, business development and the entertainment industry as models for ministry, Philip Greenslade believes we need to adopt 'angles of vision' which are Christ-centred, cross-shaped and prophetically critical of contemporary culture. Whether you teach, oversee, counsel, advise, evangelise, care for or pray for others in the Church, these insights, delivered at various events over the past decade, will give you much food for thought. Discover from Jeremiah, Jesus, Paul and others how the Holy Spirit's countercultural call to be a 'wounded healer', a 'wise fool' and a 'competent inadequate' can release God's power in your ministry for more effective and fruitful service. |

| "The Big Story" is a year-long Bible-reading programme which takes us on an exciting journey of discovery through Scripture. At its heart are the major covenants by which God expresses His loving commitment to save the world He has made. Through 365 undated readings, which can be started at any point in the year, the Bible will be experienced as an exciting narrative and we will gain a new understanding of how its various threads are pulled together by Jesus, and how the familiar Bible stories fit into the big, overarching story of the Bible, climaxing in the story of Jesus. Including the actual Bible text for the daily readings in the Holman Christian Standard translation, as well as devotional notes, thoughts and prayers for each day by Philip Greenslade and the late Selwyn Hughes, "The Big Story" is an ideal resource for those wanting to go deeper into God's Word either through individual or group study. |
