Revelation at the Manger

Revelation at the Manger

Alastair Kirk

Independently Published

"The shepherds were no ordinary tenders of the flock. They were priestly shepherds responsible for lambs destined for the Temple in Jerusalem. Part of their role was to deliver new-born lambs, wrapping them in swaddling cloths and certifying that they were strictly unblemished for eventual sacrifice. When the angel appeared to them with a sign, they would have been mindful of the Micah prophecy to Israel that the announcement of the Messiah would be at the Tower of the Flock. Therefore, the sign given to them was not where they will find the babe but who He was." REVELATION AT THE MANGER uncovers the mystery of the shepherds and other hidden truths that answer who Jesus really is and why His mission and message is as relevant today as it ever has been. Alastair Kirk provides a fresh, deeper understanding of the birth of Christ, presented in a clear and concise way, challenging preconceptions and shedding new light on the miraculous account of when God sent His Son into the world. Whether you are a follower of Jesus already or still seeking, there is much more to discover about the One placed in the manger that will strengthen your faith, whilst leading you to discover a life of transformation and hope.

Gunns are best thought of as the original, non-related inhabitants of northern, mainland Scotland. They do not have an Orkney Islands origin. Gunns should not be viewed as a Clan as they had no founding ancestor and there was never an historic 'Clan Gunn Chief.' The first Gunn known to history was Coroner Gunn of Caithness who died around 1450. His eldest son started the MacHamish Gunns of Killernan line - many descendants from that line exist all around the world. In other words, the MacHamish line is not extinct as some believe and significant detail on this MacHamish line is included in the text. For a more detailed version of Gunn history see my 'The Gunns: History, Myths and Genealogy'.

A murder, a prophecy, and the search for eternal lifeA scientist is murdered on a busy city bridge in broad daylight. A seemingly random event, the police struggle to find the culprit or motive. The murderer remains on the run and the city becomes gripped with fear and protest. In time, a link to an obscure prophet from the middle-ages emerges, as his cryptic teachings and the research themes of the murdered scientist align. But why was the man killed? And was his death a prophecy from ancient times?The End of the World is an allegorical novel exploring ideas of mortality, fanaticism, mental illness, and misinterpretation. Drawing on themes of European post-modernist novels and influenced by the writing of Jos Saramago and Franz Kafka, the novel presents a reflection on modern-day society's paranoia and the dangers of overzealous ideologies.

The Road to Batemans Bay is the story of competing ventures to create 'the Great Southern Township' on the South Coast of New South Wales in the early 1840s. The idea of developing the furthest reaches of settlement was linked to the hopes of southern woolgrowers for a road from their properties to the coast, over the Great Dividing Range. The township proponents dreamed that having a quicker and cheaper connection to Sydney would allow them to open a port second only to Port Jackson.The scene begins with the proposed coastal township of St Vincent, in an age of optimism: settlement is expanding, exports are growing and land prices are soaring, generating Australia's first land boom. Before long, however, the colony experiences a catastrophic economic depression whose 'pestilential breath' infects those with a stake in the coastal townships. Alastair Greig follows the fate of these individuals, while also speculating on the broader fate of South Coast development during the mid-nineteenth century.Greig gives a unique insight into many aspects of colonial life-including the worlds of Sydney's merchants, auctioneers, land speculators, surveyors, map-makers and lawyers-as well as its maritime challenges. The Road to Batemans Bay is a chronicle of how Australia first developed its land-gambling habit and how land speculation led to the road to ruin.

"Every true Christian home should have this book, not just to read and learn, but to ensure it's left behind for those beloved Saints."Pastor (Rev) Russell CouperREVEALED - God's Plan From Now Till Eternity introduces a vast new missionfield few have envisioned. It is predominantly written to those left behind after the sudden disappearance of millions of Christians at an event often referred to as the Rapture. The message to them of what just happened and what comes next is dependent on you purposefully leaving the book for them to find when we are gone.It does not matter if you have never considered yourself an effective witness, or are housebound due to infirmity; you can be an equally effective Evangelist. This insightful book reveals God's amazing love for those who have rejected Him. Amidst the hatred and hopelessness in the world, as God's judgements fall over seven years, referred to as the Tribulation Period, they can learn of the hope still available for them. We read in Revelation that their number will be too great to count. We can be a small but meaningful part of that harvest.Readers can use the book now to show the growing number of people searching for answers to what comes next and what they must do to escape such a time as described in REVEALED.

In 2018, Alastair McAlpine, a palliative paediatrician in Cape Town, decided to share some inspiring thoughts from the children in his care. He posted: ‘I asked some of my terminal paediatric palliative care patients what they had enjoyed in life, and what gave it meaning. Kids can be so wise, y’know. Here are some of the responses.’Their simple yet profound answers went viral, found their way into homes across the world and touched the hearts of millions. Yet it was never McAlpine’s plan to find himself in this position. Challenged from all sides by crippling addiction, a brutal internship and a deadly HIV pandemic, McAlpine’s journey was very nearly derailed.Prescription: Ice Cream is his engaging memoir about the highs and lows of working as a medical doctor in South Africa and how, with a little help from metal music and ice cream, he was able to struggle on, find meaning in the chaos and inspire others.
