From The Heart

by Rob Parsons

From the Heart brings together a rich selection of articles by Rob Parsons, one the UK's best-loved Christian authors. Most of these were written for his monthly column in Premier Christianity magazine where he shared his thoughts about some of the things that matter to him most. As far as possible, they have been kept exactly as they were when he wrote them.

Rob's reflections on the joys, challenges, doubts and fears of everyday Christian life are layered with warmth, humor and messages of hope and encouragement. But it's not all sweetness and light: there are some things that not only make him sad, but angry.

Topics include:

- Nasty Christians
- Dare to be Vulnerable
- Deal or No Deal?
- Disappointment with God
- God's Will According to Cyril
- Worry Wars
- The Strugglers' Group

'From the Heart is searingly honest and wonderfully encouraging. I absolutely loved it!' - Cathy Madavan, author of Irrepressible

Reviews

[Rachel Campbell · Rating 5 out of 5]

A truly heartwarming book. Deep theology wrapped in the simplicity of stories

[Anne Tissier · Rating 5 out of 5]

In his Foreword, Sam Hailes, editor of Premier Christianity Magazine where this collection of Rob Parson's articles first appeared, writes, "Rob comes across not as an 'expert', but instead a fellow traveller, a loving pastor and friend."
This sums up the book perfectly. Each article is engaging with real life stories, inviting you to consider your own perspective on the outcomes. They are honest, hold wonderful insights, at times very funny and other times, deeply sad. I highly recommend this book.

brilliant

I found these chapters moving, humorous, insightful and very helpful to me, because they make me realise I am not the only flawed Christian around!
