The Jesus Puzzle: Challenging intellectual uncertainty about Jesus by Brenda Watson (Christian Alternative, £11.99 (£10.79); 978-1-80341-012-8).

The Jesus Puzzle: Challenging intellectual uncertainty about Jesus shares the question of knowledge of the historical Jesus, in order to refute sceptics who consider that we can know very little about Him, and to encourage Christians to have more confidence in relating to what is said about Jesus in the gospels.”


God Save the King: The sacred nature of monarchy by Ian Bradley (DLT, £8.99 (£8.09); 978-1-915412-52-2).

“As Charles III is crowned King of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, and Defender of the Faith, this timely book explains the Christian symbolism of the coronation, and the unique significance of Christian monarchy in the history of the British Isles.”



A People’s Church: A history of the Church of England by Jeremy Morris (Profile, £12/99 (£11.69); 978-1-78125-250-5). New in paperback.

“As Jeremy Morris shows, the story of the Church - central to British life - has never been straightforward. Weaving social, political and religious context together with the significance of its music and architecture, A People's Church skilfully illuminates a complex and pre-eminent institution.”
