We live in an age that’s often cynical about the idea of heroes, that’s confused character with celebrity, and in which the classic virtues of justice, courage, self-control and wisdom are often neglected. Yet in most cultures, role models have always been seen as vital. This short book explores five heroic lives from which we can learn: John Newton, William Wilberforce, C. S. Lewis, Lesslie Newbigin and Tim Keller. Popular speaker and broadcaster Andy Bannister explains why he’s proud to call them his heroes, what we can learn from their stories, and how allowing the “clean sea breezes of the centuries” to blow through our minds can keep our thinking fresh and our lives envisioned.

It’s bad enough when Max, Rebecca, Noah, and Theo just think Grandpa Gabe’s house is haunted. But then the old movie projector in the library opens a passageway to a world of monsters and creatures made of shadows - a place of secrets and dangers set loose when the sun sets. The only weapons to fight them lie in the land on the other side of the Shadow Door. . . .

How do you say in Irish: the icing on the cake, or the acid test, or my Irish is a little rusty This is the perfect companion to Bannister s perennially popular Proverbs in Irish, also by New Island. What's That as Gaeilge will help you to express in Irish the most common idioms in everyday English. The Irish equivalents suggested in this phrasebook are colourful and exciting, many with cultural, mythological and philosophical significance and even a few emerging from the Gaelscoileanna newspeak . They will improve and enrich your spoken Irish skills for an upcoming oral examination or if you simply want to make your written and spoken Irish a tad more colloquial. This book is ideal for anyone interested in the beauty, flavour and rhythm of the living, modern language.

The time has come to confront the Master of Shadows. Rebecca, Max, and Theo must follow Grandpa Gabe into the heart of the Master's realm, the Tower of Shadows. But can Grandpa Gabe be trusted? There's a reason he's so familiar with the dark powers that rule Elsewhere: he created them. Grandpa Gabe's plan might just be a suicide mission, but it's their last chance to save our world―and Rebecca's life.

Trapped in the dangerous world of ElseWhere, Rebecca, Noah, and Theo are possessed by the evils unleashed by the Master of Shadows. Max and Grandpa Gabe may be their only hope of breaking free. But it's a race against time. The Master's plan to destroy both ElseWhere and our own world is in motion…and the hunt to find a new passageway home may come at a terrible cost.
