Th Incarnation is part of the 'Jesus series' which cover five different aspects of Jesus' life, and looks at the incredible significance of God's Son being as a baby to an ordinary couple - instead of coming as a glorious king or as, say the son of the High Priest. This book demonstrates how, Jesus being born in a manger in Bethlehem, was all part of God's perfect plan. The author makes the point that the incarnation of Jesus is of such significance to the Christian faith, that if someone does not understand the incarnation, they do not understand the faith.

If subjects were rated for popularity, subjects like self discipline, fasting and humility would be near the bottom of the list, and subjects like 'success' and 'fulfilling our God given potential', near the top. The latter, are the ones many Christians desire the most, while the former, the ones we need the most. This is a very practical book, dispelling myths about what humility is and is not. There are two chapters about pride, and the destructive consequences of a pride on relationships, if allowed to creep in. Other subjects covered in this book include, false humility and healthy pride. A recurring theme in this book, is this. Humility is the oil that leads to success in every significant relationship. Our relationship with the Father/Son and Holy Spirit and our relationships with every person we meet and know - and who does not want successful relationships?

He Changed our World gives readers an insight into the life changing impact of Jesus' birth on may his mother, his step-father Joseph; Peter, Zaachaeus, Bartimaeus and John the Baptist. Drawing mostly on what we read in the Gospels, but also historical research and his knowledge of the geography of Israel, Philip brings to life these people and the major change for good that occurred, when Jesus came into their lives.

This book The Son is primarily about the 3 years of Jesus' ministry, asking "What was Jesus like as a person?", in order that we can walk in his footsteps. The book begins with three, very different images of Jesus. (1) Relationship, relationship, relationship. (2) How Jesus loved children. (3) How Jesus was very, goal orientated and focussed. Chapter two looks at Jesus personal qualities, such as, courage and partiality, followed by chapters about Jesus' love' and 'faith' and a chapter titled "The road to Calvary." The final chapter illustrates with examples, how Jesus walked his talk.

This book demonstrates that what Christians believe, and what they do, are one and the same! That the faith we believe in and belong to, is a unitary whole, in the same way that a wheel is a combination of rim, spokes and hub. This book clearly shows that the Father, Son and Holy Spirit; share exactly the same nature and values as - represented symbolically by the arms of a cross with God at the centre, and the Son and Holy Spirit, at opposite ends. However, the nature and values which the Father, Son and Holy Spirit collectively share; do not stop at the borders of heaven. Those same values which they collectively share, flow down to us human beings, creating the first side of the triangle. Then, the second or lower arm of the triangle is created when Christians share those same values with the people they meet in their daily lives. Finally, the triangle is completed when Christians return to the Father, the same values which began in his heart and nature.

This book is a collection of spiritual principles the Holy Spirit has revealed to the author over many years. It is important to understand spiritual principles, because we are spiritual beings who have been given a spirit by God. See Romans 8:16 The spiritual principles in this book are there in the Bible but like gold nuggets in a river bed - they are waiting to be discovered. When we know these principles, they help us live successful Christian lives - joined to the vine, walking with God and being led by the Holy Spirit.
