My mother arrives a haughty Nigerian woman in a convertible with a moses basket on the seat beside her setting the net curtains in this all-white council estate twitching. & though the whole place makes my privileged mothers skin crawl she returns to London with an empty basket beside her choosing this home for me because unusually for the estate my foster mother talks proper & Ill need a posh white accent for the bright future I have ahead of me. Ill cling on to that idea
- that Ive a bright future ahead of me
- even though theres nothing in my upbringing to warrant it. Even though my mothers love consists of long absences confusing behaviour & dauntingly high expectations. Even though my foster mothers love is overwhelming & suffocating. Even though I seem to be a magnet for abusive sexual attention from men I barely know. Even though the authorities have no idea where to put me or where I belong & nor really do I. & even when I fall pregnant at eighteen & find myself back in the rural town Id tried to escape from with a tiny baby dependent on me I still think the futures out there. Ill find it whatever it takes.

Preaching Workbook

A highly practical book on how to preach effectively This is a book for all preachers (of any denomination) be they ordained or readers students preparing for a preaching ministry or lay-people called on to preach from time to time. Anyone who preaches knows how much help is needed within preaching because this form of communication is a demanding and difficult one. This workbook provides just the help people must have. In his introduction David Day describes the ambivalence in churches about preaching. He goes on to help preachers construct and deliver sermons that draw the practice closer to the high theology we hold of the sermon as the 'word of God'. David Day believes that the best and most effective preaching is biblical and several chapters focus on how to draw our message
authentically from scripture. He also gives plenty of practical help on the craft of preaching. And in doing so he is brave enough to expose some of his own sermons as examples of good or (occasionally) bad practice as well as sermons from fifty or so preachers who are equally brave in offering their own efforts.
