Adam Ramsey: Knowing God Truly, Experiencing Him Deeply.

In his new Advent devotional The Dawn of Redeeming Grace, Sinclair Ferguson opens up the first two chapters of Matthew's Gospel to help you arrive at Christmas Day awed by God's redeeming grace and refreshed by the hope of God’s promised king.

As Christians we sometimes feel like we're on another planet to our unbelieving friends and family. Daniel Strange wants to show you that the connections are there—in fact, the longings that our culture cannot help but express are the very ones that Jesus fulfils.

Blair Linne’s personal story of growing up without a father at home reflects the experiences of millions. In her new book, Finding my Father she shows us that the gospel promises not just forgiveness but also a place in God's family, experienced in a local church, where they we can enjoy the fullness of his fatherly joy, care, wisdom, provision, protection and security.

At the height of his influence, C.S. Lewis was broadcasting his Mere Christianity lectures to almost 1.5 million people. There is so much we can learn from him.  You may feel inadequate to the task of evangelism, but in his new book Randy Newman skillfully helps us to apply the methods Lewis used (storytelling, humour, imagery and more) in our own conversations.

Many people assume that the story of the baby in the manger at Bethlehem is just another made-up fantasy for kids. In this episode we talked to respected apologist Rebecca McLaughlin about the evidence that Jesus was a real person, explaining the reliability of the Bible’s accounts of his life and why believing in a virgin birth is not as ridiculous as it might sound.

When children have something on their minds, they tend to run to their parents and caregivers. Wouldn’t it be great if they also learned that they can talk to God about anything and everything because Jesus has made that possible? In this episode we chat to Laura Wifler, co-founder of Risen Motherhood about her new kids book Any Time, Any Place, Any Prayer.

What if we didn’t have to choose between an intelligent faith and a passionate one? Right thinking. Right feeling. Deep thoughts about God...for a deeper experience of God. Too often Christians live their spiritual experience in two distinct camps. In this episode of the podcast we talk to Adam Ramsey about his new book Truth on Fire and his manifesto for gazing at God until our hearts sing. 

Andrew Wilson is a pastor and teacher, as well as the author of 1 Corinthians For You, an accessible study guide to one of Paul's most popular epistles.  In this podcast we find out why Andrew loves this letter so much, and what we can all learn from how Paul speaks to a church that is at risk of being assimilated into the world, especially when it comes to how we teach and preach on sexuality and other contemporary issues.

It's our 30th anniversary! Joining us on the podcast this time is the founder of The Good Book Company himself, Tim Thornborough. In this episode, Tim opens up the annals of TGBC history, taking us from its unlikely beginning in the front room of his South-West London home, all the way up to our current status as a global Christian publisher, committed to helping believers everywhere open up the Bible for themselves.

Whether mildly, moderately or severely, feeling anxious is something most of us experience at some point in our lives.  Helen Thorne, author of Hope in an Anxious World, joins us to talk about her experience of battling anxiety and how to take the first few steps towards a lifetime of change.
