Book Description
There is a consensus among many New Testament scholars that much of what the historical Jesus and his apostles taught has been submerged by an influx of post-biblical tradition. Subtle foreign influences, mostly from pagan Greek philosophy, which neither Jesus nor his first-century followers would recognize or endorse, have obscured the original Gospel as Jesus preached it. Most churchgoers accept without question, unbiblical traditions which they have never seriously investigated.In They Never Told Me This in Church! Greg Deuble invites the reader to a careful re-examination of ?the faith once delivered? in the light of the Hebrew heritage which formed the framework of all that Jesus taught in regard to himself and his Gospel mission. From the Foreword: ?This does not mean at all that Greg has given up faith in holy Scripture. Far from it. There is nothing trendy or gimmicky in his approach. Rather, he has learned to read the Bible from its own Hebrew perspective, and shedding a large quantity of traditional baggage has made the Bible all the more brilliant and telling. Because he is an honest student of truth, Greg has been rewarded...with unusual insight. He has a knack of getting to the heart of the issues. He has brought in a wealth of modern scholarly support for his argument, and the quotations gleaned from his wide reading are impressive. He adds a pleasing dose of Aussie humour to his writing while he invites us to re-examine all the major issues of biblical theology. The personal warmth of the author and his pastoral touch are evident in all he writes.?They Never Told Me This in Church! will inspire and challenge all who claim devotion to Jesus, and many who are searching for the meaning of his role in history. They will be enabled to read the Bible with new eyes! The confused state of divided Christendom in our time demands just such an honest and radical investigation.

Book Description
These memoirs record my life from infant to octogenarian; including traumas when my mother was widowed twice - father killed in action in World War II when I was five and stepfather struck by lightning and killed when I was twelve. Death continued as a part of living in my early adulthood when eldest child, Owen was killed age three in a household accident and favourite uncle Merle committed suicide. My employment in the 1960s included jug hustling at an oil exploration site in the middle of winter, article student with a firm of chartered accountants, then as a payroll clerk at a construction site at Pine Point Northwest Territories (hitchhiking out by bush plane with a view of the conifer forest seen through the floorboards of the bush plane). During my tenth year as a married man I became irresponsible and deserted my first wife and four children. The Australian phrase for that is "gone walk about". I call this my wilderness walk. No member of my family had any idea where I was for the next three years. Migration to New Zealand on a plane over the Pacific was the next stage of my wilderness walk, followed sixteen months later by a flight to Brisbane. I shared a taxi with an English lass to the Gold Coast after asking her "Where and what's that?" I soon found out, employed as a night auditor, frequently sleeping on the beach during my non-working daylight hours. Enjoy the read and discover how and when I was Awakened.

Book Description
The revelatory story of the Bible in Australia, from the convict era to the Mabo land rights campaign, Nick Cave, the Bra Boys, and beyond. Thought to be everything from the word of God to a resented imposition, the Bible has been debated, painted, rejected, translated, read, gossiped about, preached, and tattooed. At a time when public discussion of religion is deeply polarised, Meredith Lake reveals the Bible's dynamic influence in Australia and offers an innovative new perspective on Christianity and its changing role in our society. In the hands of writers, artists, wowsers, Bible-bashers, immigrants, suffragists, evangelists, unionists, Indigenous activists, and many more - the Bible has played a defining and contested role in Australia. A must-read for sceptics, the curious, the lapsed, the devout, the believer, and non-believer.
