This is a Christian book with a difference. True Christianity is under attack and the Holy Bible has been labelled a 'hate document'. Christian freedoms of speech and prayer are constantly being denied. Christian leaders have reacted by adapting what they preach to what people want to hear rather than what the Bible, the Word of God, actually says. As a result congregations are shrinking and churches are closing. Part 1 of this book sets out why the Bible should be believed and what it actually teaches. Then in Part 2 we read how and why things started to go wrong in the past, right back to the early Church Fathers. Was it Roman Catholicism with the Crusades and the Inquisition or was it Calvinism with it's absurd doctrine and cruelty? Then we move to the present day and examine what is filling the vacuum now that so many people have turned their backs on our Christian roots. Is it Humanism or is it to be Critical Theory (Woke ideology) with the destruction of all truth? Or will it be Islam?

Christianity, in its Catholic, Protestant and Nonconformist forms, has played an enormous role in the history of Wales and in the defining and shaping of Welsh identity over the past two thousand years. Biblical place names, an urban and rural landscape littered with churches, chapels, crosses and sacred sites, a bardic and literary tradition deeply imbued with Christian themes in both the Welsh and English languages, and the songs sung by tens of thousands of rugby supporters at the national stadium in Cardiff, all hint at a Christian presence that was once universal. Yet for many in contemporary Wales, the story of the development of Christianity in their country remains little known. While the history of Christianity in Wales has been a subject of perennial interest for Welsh historians, much of their work has been highly specialised and not always accessible to a general audience. Standing on the shoulders of some of Wales’s finest historians, this is the first single-volume history of Welsh Christianity from its origins in Roman Britain to the present day. Drawing on the expertise of four leading historians of the Welsh Christian tradition, this volume is specifically designed for the general reader, and those beginning their exploration of Wales’s Christian past.

When Stephen's dad is lost at sea in the mid-1800s, his life begins to unravel. His devoted mother Ellen, an Irish wash-woman, can't keep an eye on Stephen and his brother while trying to make enough for the family to live on. At her wits' end, Ellen sends Stephen to a farm upstate, but Stephen doesn't take to it. Stephen is finally taken in by a family living on an island 23 miles off the coast of Maine: Matinicus. There, Stephen rediscovers himself through adventures and misadventures with new friends. Instead of feeling trapped on the Island so far from home, Stephen finds freedom as he grows into adulthood through the devoted care of his newfound Grandmother and Grandfather. Toward the end of his life, Stephen recounted this true story to his Marian Wells Cronin. The Island has now been updated for contemporary readers by Stephen's great-grandson, David Jones. Combined with historical notes and additional bonus materials online, this story provides a rich window into one family's history that can help all of us make sense of who we wish to be in the present.
