Joy Farrington shares her journey to discover God's heart and true intentions for sexual purity. As Joy struggled through the traumas of teenage relationships, she also witnessed around her the broken lives of those who had become the victims of addiction and sexual exploitation. She began to feel a calling to reach out to vulnerable women and men working in the sex industry. Starting with the red light district in Liverpool, this has taken her to the crack dens in Brazil, the strip bars in LA, and the notorious bars and brothels of Bangkok. Broken by Beauty describes both Joy's own life experiences and the insights gained from talking to those from around the world who have been sexually exploited. She aims to inspire others both to choose sexual purity and to fight on behalf of those who are more vulnerable to exploitation.

Ten inspiring stories of faith and mission from Asia and the Arab World from the mission agency Interserve. In The Plum in the Desert Naomi Reed tells stories of difficult situations in the mission field; some of victory, some which left the mission workers feeling they had failed. But despite the difficulties and perceived failures, each story speaks of the goodness of God and what it means to persevere and trust in him, even when it seems too hard. These stories give us a new perspective on those perceived failures and remind us that "in all things God works for the good of those who love him". Commendations for The Plum in the Desert: "I smiled, I cried, and I marveled, but most of all I found myself moved to thanksgiving to the Lord as I read through these absorbing stories." Rose Dowsett - mission writer, researcher and former Chair of the Interserve International Council. "These stories of Interserve workers illustrate vividly the flexible and innovative approaches to mission in our day. Gripping, challenging and informative." Martin Goldsmith, author and mission lecturer, All Nations Christian College

The Plum Tree in the Desert: Ten Stories of Faith and Mission to Inspire You

Reed, Naomi

Ever wonder how to handle the tough ethical issues we face? Such as: Should I attend a same-sex wedding? If two people love each other, why shouldn't they express that love through sex? How can the church support single people seeking to live a godly life? Should divorcees remarry in church? These four accessible, practical guides on sex and marriage will equip both new and mature Christians to think through the issues in the light of the Bible and theology. They offer help to Christians facing these issues themselves and for ministers as they provide guidance. Each guide (also available separately in print or as an e-book) has a 'Go Deeper' section listing resources for further reference. Look out for the other guides on topics such as abortion, euthanasia, wealth and poverty. In a world of increasing ethical complexity this is an invaluable down-to-earth practical resource for Christians. Sean Doherty has produced a much-needed accessible introduction to a series of controversial subjects in which he confronts tough questions based on candour, common sense and personal experience. It will be widely welcomed. - Dr Don Horrocks, Head of Public Policy, Evangelical Alliance
