A New History Of Life
What is the history of life on earth. The earth was formed along with the moon due to a strong and powerful force. A yes to that. Life on earth began much later than the earth was formed. A yes to that too. But life began on the planet earth. Would you a agree if I gave you a no to that. Would you agree if I told you that Mars was the planet where life first began? The book explains why. Animals did not appear until billions of years later. The first fish was forced out of the water. The earth’s environment went through various changes. These changes led to different ice ages and then emerged the giant animals and dinosaurs. These are the things that Peter Ward and Joe Kirschwink explain to you in A New History of Life.

The Lent Factor
Human character is best described by telling stories about people. The Lent Factor describes forty very different people - one for each day of Lent - who have a special quality about them, and uses their stories to reflect on how faith and character are connected. A theme from each brief story is illuminated by reflection on a scene, passage or word from the Bible. The appropriateness of the use of a cross to mark out the 'X' factor within human beings becomes the more pertinent as the journey through Lent approaches Holy Week and Easter. The cast list includes Edith Cavell, Philip Toynbee (father of Polly), U.A. Fanthorpe, Dorothy Sayers, Charles Wesley, Rabbi Hugo Gryn, Julian of Norwich, Kathleen Ferrier, Eva Peron and many others from different backgrounds and diverse periods of history, some famous and some entirely unknown.
