We have a large mail order service dispatching Christian books all over the world.

What’s in a book? A book can challenge and inspire. It can teach and inform. It can confront people with an invitation to know God. And it can provide a vital guide for Christians on their Spiritual journey. It was this conviction that that led two ladies to set up their Christian bookshop in 1957. We believe that Books Change Lives.
You will find that you can easily search for books on this site and there is no problem with delivery to Belgium.

 The Leprosy Mission Books etc.
TLM Trading Limited is an international Christian development organisation, trans-forming and empowering the lives of people affected by leprosy. Our goal is to eradicate the causes and consequences of this disease.
Our main aim is to help raise awareness of The Leprosy Mission and its work and to raise funds to support its projects. We do this indirectly through the sale of our products online and in our four catalogues a year. We also do this directly through our Gifts for Life range, which last year combined with donations added to orders, raised a magnificent £369,000. Furthermore, we directly support our artisan groups, by selling their products to help provide them with the social and economic status that allows a dignified life.
Eddie Askew, with his wife Barbara, worked in India for fifteen years with The Leprosy Mission. Later he became the charity’s International Director and travelled widely in five continents. He is also one of the UK’s best-selling Christian authors, illustrating his own books. See more.

The price of a Falcon covers everything except for travelling to the holiday. The actual cost of a Falcon is much higher than the advertised cost.

Teams of carefully selected and trained Christian volunteers who are committed to working with children and young people.
If you are interested in volunteering, there are always opportunities to get involved. We welcome many students and other young adults who have been on Ventures themselves and other people who don’t have specific youth work skills for the many practical and technical roles to be undertaken more.

Christian Journals and Media on the web
|
 
We write compelling websites that reach out to skeptics, seekers, believers, and a hurting world with powerful evidence for God and the Good News of Jesus.
We believe truth transforms lives. Therefore, we place our content on the first few pages of the most popular search engines in the world. That way, when people seek answers on the Web, we’re there with the truth at the top!
We are followers of Jesus. Like Jesus, we reject many of the issues found in “organized religion” (man-made attempts to reach God through rules and rituals). We consider the personal pursuit of God as paramount in each of our personal life journeys. We also believe that ultimate, saving Truth is found only through God’s Son, Jesus Christ.

 Dr. Beisner is Founder and National Spokesman of The Cornwall Alliance for the Stewardship of Creation, a network of over 60 Christian theologians, natural scientists, economists, and other scholars educating for Biblical earth stewardship, economic development for the poor, and the proclamation and defense of the good news of salvation by God’s grace, received through faith in Jesus Christ’s death and resurrection.
______________________________________________
1. We call on our fellow Christians to practice creation stewardship out of Biblical conviction, adoration for our Creator, and love for our fellow man—especially the poor.
2. We call on Christian leaders to understand the truth about climate change and embrace Biblical thinking, sound science, and careful economic analysis in creation stewardship.
3. We call on political leaders to adopt policies that protect human liberty, make energy more affordable, and free the poor to rise out of poverty, while abandoning fruitless, indeed harmful policies to control global temperature.

RTB‘s mission is to spread the Christian Gospel by demonstrating that sound reason and scientific research—including the very latest discoveries—consistently support, rather than erode, confidence in the truth of the Bible and faith in the personal, transcendent God revealed in both Scripture and nature.
Reasons to Believe spokespersons do not attack ideas but rather aim to present research and start a conversation—because people deserve respect and a safe forum for discussing their views.
Dr Hugh Ross, President Founder
Reasons to Believe emerged from my passion to research, develop, and proclaim the most powerful new reasons to believe in Christ as Creator, Lord, and Saviour and to use those new reasons to reach people for Christ. One of the approaches I’ve developed, with the help of my RTB colleagues, is a biblical creation model that is testable, falsifiable, and predictive.
I enjoy constructively integrating all 66 books of the Bible with all the science disciplines as a way to discover and apply deeper truths. 1 Peter 3:15–16 sets my ministry goal, “Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect, keeping a clear conscience.”

Ten years ago, when I was a visiting scholar at the North American College in Rome, I fell into a spirited conversation with one of the seminarians about the state of evangelization in America. We both were bemoaning the fact that the “new” atheists were regularly attacking religion, and I commented that no Christian spokesman had managed to engage the enemies of the faith well on the public scene. To this, my seminarian friend responded, “Yeah, but have you seen William Lane Craig?” I admitted I hadn’t. He told me that Craig, an evangelical Protestant, was by far the most effective spokesman for the Christian point of view and that he had taken on the atheists with great intelligence, wit, and panache.
