Foreword by Raymond Aaron New York Bestselling AuthorBe The Light is going to have you question how life can drastically change without warning.Here they were, two ordinary people who took a vow to love each other forever, and ventured into life together happily and innocently. This was soon interrupted by malevolent third parties who began a series of vicious attacks physically and supernaturally. Yet the worst blow will take the couple through a barrage of events that would change their future forever.When things in life are going wrong such as finances failing, relationships falling apart and health suffering, all of which need evaluation to determine why these misfortunes are happening.  However dismal circumstances seem, whatever life event has sent you sinking into the depths, you can pull yourself out and survive it.With the help of God, and the love of family, friends and the amazing people she met along this journey, Gita emerged stronger, wiser, expectant and most of all hopeful of a great present and the brightest future.It’s not every day that you allow people into your life, but when you do, ‘Be The Light,’ book will be a reminder of how important it is to tread into new relationships very carefully. This is a journey of self-discovery, learning to know God for oneself, perseverance, and the will to keep going against all the odds. Gita shares this true-life story with unbridled transparency, grace and forgiveness.

Humorous Wit is a new compilation of quotations in their most humoristic form. There are over 15,000 of these taken from various parts of the world, with over 1,200 of them translated into English for the first time.This book features 5,000 authors from every corner of the globe, covering a period starting before classical antiquity, when man first started to record his thoughts, to modern times, enriching the cultural heritage.This does not in any way mean that the caveman was less humorous, but the richness of the environment we live in today and the variety of subject matter contribute considerably to a refined sense of humour.Moreover, considering that chimps and other primates also possess the ability to laugh, humour may have been around longer than the human race : )

Try and Conversion is the inspiring story of Glyn Wood, born in Sheffield in 1960 into a working class family, and who lived on a council estate until the age of five. With limited prospects having left school without any formal qualifications, he was encouraged to join the Fleet Air Arm in the Royal Navy and, as a naive young boy he left Sheffield, aged sixteen, to see what the world had to offer.His story will tell you how a keen Sheffield United football fan finished up playing rugby union for most of his early teenage years and for part of his adult life, going on to play for Northampton Saints and Bedford Blues. Other accolades include playing at Twickenham on eight occasions, representing the Combined Services against Canada and Australia and performing in the Field Gun Crew at the Royal Tournament. He talks about the highs and lows of starting up and running his own business, being overlooked for the Great Britain Bobsleigh team as a brakeman in the Sarajevo Winter Olympic games, and how recurring injuries cut short his rugby career.However, Glyn openly admits that one of his biggest challenges was to swallow his pride and put aside his ego; his greatest accomplishments have been discovering real peace and a spiritual awakening after his conversion to the Christian faith at the age of thirty-seven.Glyn is now retired and serves at his local Anglican church in Kettering, Northamptonshire. He undertakes speaking engagements, talking about how his conversion affected his life, and he hopes that this book will encourage people from all backgrounds to seriously explore the Christian faith.How wonderful to know that when we draw close to God, nothing else matters, only to discover that everything matters to our God.

The Naked Tuck Shop is a unique record of a period long before 'gaiety' was legal in any form in the United Kingdom. This memoir of a 1950s grammar-school boy's navigation through his emerging gayness, lifts the lid on his discovery of a vast clandestine world - that stretched from members of parliament to long distance lorry drivers.A chance meeting with two local artists while 'cottaging' provided the springboard to a Soho demimonde that featured Muriel Belcher's Colony Room and a cast of characters that included Francis Bacon, Angus Wilson and Tom Driberg. While his friendship with Dudley, Bishop of Colchester, led to encounters with dodgy clerics and Margery Allingham, the crime writer queen.The author suggests that the 'cottage', long before later legal venues like gay pubs and discos arrived, was the only game in town for an underage provincial teenager. In a contemporary Britain starved of 'public conveniences' it is easy to forget their ubiquity in those times. The late Victorian 'spend a penny' brigade had decreed the building of these municipal marvels throughout the land, and fortunately for him the local worthy burghers had seen to it that Colchester was well endowed.Alongside his early adventures in 'queer society' Tim Hughes remembers with affection a group of talented school friends, and how some of them who were also friends of Dorothy, had their lives cut short by the arrival of the gay plague.

It was accidental how I met Heidi. It went down well between us. The holiday in the woods turned out to be something we had not bargained for; but later turned out brilliantly. Life moved on quickly with the adoption of Michael, conflict with his mother and her brother, and then the meeting with the space people. That was something special. Then earth in conflict, with the space people. Our neighbours got a taste of the mysterious. After that, the evacuation to Nepsi, a 5th Solar System planet and should I mention the amazing trip from Nepsi back to Earth…

Berwick Coates found it something of a shock when he worked out that he had taught over 40,000 lessons. However, with a record like that, it seemed not unreasonable to suppose that he might have a thing or two to say. Among others is the great truth that the classroom is not a democracy, a salon, a debating chamber, or a symposium; it is an arena, which is pervaded by a semi-permanent state of friendly undeclared war. Victory does not go to either side; you win some and you lose some. Survival depends on proper knowledge, awareness, flexibility, resilience, a willingness to learn, thinking on the feet, a sense of humour, and low cunning.
