Story
The Sacred Diary of Adrian Plass (Aged 37 3/4) began its public life in Christian Family Magazine, progressed to live performances at Christian holiday weeks and has grown to a best-selling book which will leave listeners helpless with laughter yet moved by the genuine affection which holds together Adrian, his family, and his assorted fellow-believers. The Diary is a must for anyone who has ever thought that some of the things we do and say as Christians are faintly ridiculous.

Story
When a Republican party wins the general election, they strip the royal family of everything and send them to live on a housing estate in the Midlands. Exchanging caviar for boiled eggs, servants for a social worker named Trish, the queen and her family learn what it means to be poor among the great unwashed. Is their breeding sufficient to allow them to rise above their changed circumstance, or deep down are they really just like everyone else?

Story
A fresh, challenging and compassionate response to busyness, based on the way of life Jesus offered his disciples. Who are you becoming? That was the question nagging pastor and author John Mark Comer. By outward metrics, everything appeared successful. But inwardly, things weren't pretty. So he turned to a trusted mentor for guidance and heard these words: 'Ruthlessly eliminate hurry from your life. Hurry is the great enemy of the spiritual life.' It wasn't the response he expected, but it continues to be the answer he needs.

Story
Christianity is the most enduring and influential legacy of the ancient world, and its emergence the single most transformative development in Western history. Even the increasing number in the West today who have abandoned the faith of their forebears, and dismiss all religion as pointless superstition, remain recognisably its heirs. Seen close up, the division between a sceptic and a believer may seem unbridgeable. Widen the focus, though, and Christianity's enduring impact upon the West can be seen in the emergence of much that has traditionally been cast as its nemesis.

The inspiration for the BBC series of the same name.

A beloved friend.
I first became a lover of Adrian's books at 12. The original diary did and still does, make me laugh out loud. This one has a different feel, but nonetheless has the laughs of the first. My only criticism is that as a person of faith with a gay son, there are some uncomfortable parts to listen to. It is of course his right to believe and express those beliefs. It just saddens me that someone who is confused may listen and feel judged so I take off one star for that.

Great fun
4 stars not because it will ever be ranked a literary classic, but because through his wonderful, insightful, sharp yet gentle humour, Adrian Plass reaches into the heart and leaves little nuggets of wisdom about God's great love.
