Are you spiritually hungry? When we are hungry, it proves we are alive, it shows that we have a desire for life. Some 2000 years ago Jesus spoke to ordinary men and women like you and me and he felt their needs and hungers. He once said, "Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for they shall be satisfied" (Matthew Chapter 5). When you are spiritually hungry, you are saying you want a more satisfying and fulfilling relationship with God. The spiritual life is not a one-off event; it's a daily routine and habit. We all know that even after a great meal we get hungry the next day and we need to get up and eat again. It is the hunger that moves us to find food that satisfies. It is the same with spiritual hunger. This book wants to encourage you in that desire. Keep longing, hungering and thirsting for God and you will be given everything you need in life. Not necessarily everything you want but everything you need. Perhaps that is why Jesus only taught us one prayer, 'The Our Father' and in it we say Give us this day our daily bread. Enjoy the 12 'courses' this book offers. Bon appetit.

There are countless books on presentation skills full of technique and systems on how to create and deliver the perfect presentation. Indeed Max Atkinson is the author of one of the best of those very books. This is something slightly different. Here, Max focuses his expertise on looking deeper into the recent worlds of presentations and speech making. This book is a more personal, slightly more irreverent look at the craft of communication and those that do it; be they in politics, in the media or on platforms elsewhere from around the world. Based on his popular blog, Max takes us on a whistle stop tour of his observations from the past seven years. "There was scarcely a single major speech, in my eleven years as leader of the Liberal Democrats, that I made without benefiting from Max's personal advice and help." - Paddy Ashdown Max Atkinson was a fellow of Wolfson College, Oxford and previously taught at the universities of Essex, Lancaster and Manchester. He was also a visiting professor at the Henley Management College and various universities in Europe and the USA, after which he formed a consultancy specialising in public speaking and presentation skills. In 1985, he ran a seminar on speech writing in the Reagan White House. www.speaking.co.uk maxatkinson.blogspot.co.uk
