Men's Night at CW's

Yesterday we had our very first Men's Night out. In case you missed it, it was awesome! And the journey hasn't even started yet. There will be plenty of surprises along the way.

Bath

Since we are predicting an insanely busy 2012, Angela and I decided to escape the already busy 2011 and tried to squeeze a little break in between. Our destination: the gorgeous world heritage site of Bath. 

Bath presents some of the finest architectural sights in Europe and is located quite close to our home in the Cotswolds. Bath has a diverse collection of museums and attractions, including the world famous Roman Baths and stunning Thermae Bath Spa.

We stayed at The White Guest House and did not regret it. The room was cosy and warm and the price was just right. Definitely recommended if you don't want to blow the budget but still want something really nice.

If you ever make it there make sure you visit Hudson Steak House and ask for their sirloin steak. With an excellent atmosphere, friendly staff, and gorgeous food you will not regret the experience.

We believe 2012 is going to be awesome and we are looking forward to what God has is store for us at D7 Church. 

Happy 2012 everyone!!!

Are You A Christian? ...Really!?

While many who claim to be Christians whine about how early or long the church service is. How 10% is too challenging and too much to give. How depressing it is not to be able to buy that new car or that new pair of shoes. How being a man is so much hard work. This ex-addict, hard core criminal turned businessman, then preacher and last but not the least, missionary in Africa, is doing amazing things for God.

Do me a favour, go and watch this movie immediately and then think about your Christian life (or lack thereof)! It has changed my perspective of a lot of things, including who I used to see as my heroes.

Being a Woman

I am proud to say that Angela's new book is now available. What a masterpiece!

From a man's perspective I found this book valuable in understanding women better. Not only the role of a woman but also the heart. A must read for husbands as well as men who are seeking to draw the best out of the women in their world. Understanding the role of a woman could significantly change your life and the lives of the women around you. Being a Woman is very practical with applicable suggestions that will challenge men and women alike.   Much to my surprise I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

The Being a Woman book and worksheets are available here as well as the awesome photos that my daughter, Lorah-Kelly took for this book. 

Free

"The world is crying out for men and women to fulfil their destiny". A powerful statement that got my attention right from the very start of this book. It even motivated me to plan the route of my life taking into consideration the destination. Sometimes we know where we want to go but not how to get there. Free will help you plan your route.

This is a very practical book in finding freedom in many areas of life. Angela's honest approach to difficult subjects is refreshing and inspiring. In this book you will find very practical keys to be free from things such as shame, fear, unforgiveness as well as keys to live a life to be free to give, love, lead, laugh and much more.

Free is a very insightful book drawn from Angela's own struggles and experiences. Although this book is pitched to women every single key is still relevant to men. A must read if you truly want to unleash your potential and be free.

Passion & Purity Availalbe NOW!

My wife is an awesome woman of God and I am very proud of her. I never knew how much I could learn from her journey myself. Passion & Purity is the most powerful book in the Loving Life Series. You would definitely benefit from starting with Hope’s Journey and then Secure on the Rock, to get the whole picture of her powerful testimony - Passion & Purity however is still powerful as a standalone volume.

This book is all about living an adventurous, passionate, wild life within the boundaries of purity. Most people go for the wild life but compromise their purity. Angela shows both side of the coin - how to do it and how not to do it.

Although this book was written to women, I found it extremely helpful as I got a better perspective on how to relate and protect my wife and how to look after and protect my daughters. Husbands and fathers will definitely benefit from the whole Loving Life Series.

You will not be able to put this book down and you should not read it if you don’t want your life to be greatly impacted. Highly recommended. Passion & Purity is available on Amazon as well as all online bookstores worldwide and from our church website.

Secure On The Rock

Finally the big day has arrived! Angela's new book, Secure on the Rock, is available now from Amazon.co.uk.  

This book will definitely help you to understand insecurity and find freedom from it. I found it particularly helpful as it touches the roots of what can be a very controlling pattern. A grabbing read; this book will keep you hooked as Angela describes her journey to freedom. Secure on the Rock will also help couples in their journey as Angela's perspective really helps men understand women so much more. I found this book really opened my eyes to the things that my wife may be feeling or going through. I highly recommend this book for men and women and I am sure that the Study Guide will be a great resource too.

I would be extremely grateful if you would spread the word and most of all if you would leave a review on Amazon. Thank you to everyone for all you kinds words of encouragement and support.
