Sacred Cows make great BBQs
A book looking at sacred cows which need to be torched in the church and the Christian Faith. Superbly and humerously written by Davie Gilpin

The Church of Facebook
I bought this book whilst preparing a talk on Facebook for a cafe church service, having realised that Social Networking is huge and something that is changing the landscape of relationship and communication. The book itself flows very well, with sensible progression and never leaves you as a reader feeling stranded – even though some of the theories it is covering are very complex. The book is sprinkled with good humour and poignancy, and whilst written by a Christian could be read by someone with or without a faith. If you’re looking to find out more about Facebook I couldn’t recommend it enough, it is balanced (unlike some of the sensationalist articles in recent newspapers) and suitable for those who are or aren’t Facebook users. Very readable – It took about four hours and a few mugs of tea – the discussion after with my friends still carries on.

We used this film on a residential with a small group and it totally changed the way they thought about Jesus and what he did. A great short film superbly put together and the accompanying session plan is a great idea to.
