Rich Johnson

Expert advice on staying safe in the outdoors from one of America’s best-known survival writersThe best way to survive an extreme situation in the wilderness is to avoid it in the first place, says Rich Johnson in this refreshing new guide to outdoor survival skills. Avoiding both the rigid "primitive skills" ideology and macho, military/survivalist posturing, Johnson focuses on proven, easily implemented methods to handle emergency situations in an easy, low-stress manner.

We are living in a key cultural moment. Many widely assumed cultural values and norms are being shaken and dismantled. Is the Church ready to be the place where people can ask their deep questions and be lovingly discipled towards Jesus? This book casts fresh vision for a holier, healthier and more humble expression and practice of Christian leadership. In it, Rich Johnson claims that as we navigate the early stages of the post-Christian/post-secular age, leaders have a responsibility to find new ways to develop engaging, resilient and biblical approaches to leadership. Approaches that are defined by being approachable, faithful, radical and Spirit-led. Using biblical examples of leadership, such as Daniel and Nehemiah, Rich offers a set of principles that will help any church leader serve the communities they care for in a way that makes sense for today.

Serien Watchmensch är en unik pastisch på den klassiska serieromanen Watchmen, och tillika en kommentar till hur den amerikanska seriebranschen fungerar, och hur den har hanterat reaktionen med Alan Moore, manusförfattaren till Warchmen. Manus är skrivet av amerikanen Rich Johnson och teckningarna är gjorda av svenske Simon Rohrmüller. The original Watchmen creative team about Watchmensch - ”I laughed out loud at Watchmensch. Several times, in fact – and the climactic scene is more awesome than any squid!” – Dave Gibbons ”I enjoyed it completely colouring a tightly worded and superbly illustrated comic parody.” – John Higgins ”Stop bothering me. I want nothing to do with this. Leave me alone or I will unleash all of my magic on you and all your loved ones.” – Alan Moore (Probably - we don’t know.)
