Keswick update: 1,000 books to Majority-World believers
Elizabeth McQuoid
Attenders at the Keswick Convention this summer were issued with a challenge. Donate just £3 to send 2 copies of Femi Adeleye’s new book, Does God Promise Me Health, Wealth and Happiness?, published by OPAL Trust, to believers in the Majority World (read more here).
The prosperity gospel is rife and Femi, Africa Director for Langham Preaching, wrote this book to help Christians navigate the confusion and disillusionment this false teaching causes. He explains why the prosperity gospel is not Biblical, how God’s desire for our prosperity is far bigger than material possessions, and that Christ calls us to contentment, gratitude and living generously.
Who are you in secret – really?
Elizabeth McQuoid
Who You Are When No One’s Looking was one of the books that profoundly influenced me as a new Christian more than 30 years ago. The book spelled out the need to develop a Christlike character so that the godliness we display in public is not a pretence, but an extension of our private devotion.
Given how big an impression the book had on me, I was floored when its author, a high-profile pastor, resigned from his church because of sexual immorality.
