Visiting Narnia with
Andrew Adamson
For decades, C S Lewis’s Chronicles of Narnia have been among the world’s best-loved children’s books. So whoever was going to be involved with adapting these stories in movie form was undertaking a difficult assignment.
Beauty Matters
After looking through the Sunday advertisements, I felt a slight skip in my heart. Sales—make-up sales, to be specific. Hmmm, did I need anything? I considered my slim stock of facial enhancements and realised grimly that I didn’t honestly “need” a single item. Still, I was drawn to the glamour and allure promised by the manufacturers of these accoutrements.
Top 10 Health Mistakes

A Forgotten Father of Reformation
Often forgotten or obscured in Reformation history is one man who towers above his luminaries and heroes. He is Thomas Bilney, also known as the father of the English Reformation.
Jon Johanson—Wings Like Eagles
Jon Johanson is a man who knows what it is like to “soar on wings like eagles.” Through hard work, perseverance and sheer stubbornness, he built his own light aircraft and become the first Australian to fly solo around the world in a custom-built aircraft in 1995.
Peter: Fisherman, Flawed Disciple, Sheep Feeder
Peter was called into a life of discipleship —warts and all. Arthur Patrick helps us see ourselves in this passionate follower of Jesus.
