What is my calling? What is my purpose in life? And how do I pursue it once I know what it is? Rich Wilson, in A Call Less Ordinary, aims to help you answer those life changing questions. Embracing God's calling is not easy, but it is the most fulfilling thing you can do with your life. And yet, understanding God's call on our lives takes time. It can seem vague, often because we are looking in the wrong places. A Call Less Ordinary will give anyone wrestling with the question of whether or not God has a plan for them a deeper understanding of what it means to find your purpose in life. It will challenge and guide you to find new ways of using your passions for God, and give you encouragement and hope to embrace your calling and live a meaningful life. When Rich Wilson felt God calling him into student ministry, he had no idea what challenges, frustrations, hopes and aspirations would await him as he became movement leader of Fusion - a movement that equips students for Christian mission. In refusing to sugar coat some of life's darkest days, his storytelling and writing illuminates how the call and grace of God reaches deeper into our lives than we often dare to embrace. By drawing on both his story and the stories of other ordinary people following an extraordinary God, he offers guidance and advice for discovering our own calling, and finding ways to pursue it through adventure and adversity. A Call Less Ordinary is both practical and provocative, leaving you energised and expectant for how God is working now and for your future. Could it be that God is both calling and leading you into greater freedom and fulfilment today? "Raw, honest and compelling - a timely and necessary message well-lived and beautifully written for this generation." Pete Greig...

There is magic in the world, hiding in plain sight. If you search for it, you will find it, or it will find you. Welcome to the magical world. Having lived all her life in Edinburgh, the last thing 25-year old Dizzy expected was to see a man with a real (if tiny) dragon on his shoulder. Following him, she discovered that she had stumbled from her mundane world into a parallel magical world, an alternate reality where dragons flew through the sky and the Great Powers watched over the world. Convinced that she had nothing to lose, she became apprenticed to the man with the dragon. He turned out to be one of the most powerful magicians in all of reality. But powerful dark forces had their eye on this young and inexperienced magician, intending to use her for the ultimate act of evil – the apocalyptic destruction of all reality. If Dizzy does not realise what is happening to her and the worlds around her, she won’t be able to stop their plan. A plan that will ravage both the magical and mundane worlds, consuming everything and everyone in fire....

For the last fifteen years, Rose "Manny" Mankowski has been a very good girl. She turned her back on her youthful fancies and focused on her career. But now, at the age of 45, she's questioning her choices and feeling more and more disconnected from her own life. When she's passed over for promotion and her much younger new boss implies Manny's life will never change, something snaps. In the blink of an eye, she's quit her job, sold her house and cashed in her pension, and she's leaving town on a six month road trip. After placing a personal ad for a travelling companion, she's joined in her mid-life crisis by Zeke Powell, the cynical, satirical, most-read - and most controversial - blogger for the e-magazine, What Women Want. Zeke's true goal is to expose Manny's journey as a pitiful and desperate attempt to reclaim her lost youth - and increase his readership at the same time. Leaving it all behind for six months is just an added bonus. Now, armed with a bagful of destinations, a fistful of maps, and an out-spoken imaginary friend named Harvey, Manny's on a quest to rediscover herself - and taking Zeke along for the ride....

"So that's our setting. Sixty-nine houses, four corners of Georgian Dublin but just one address. Scope enough for some remarkable tales and extraordinary lives. Homes that ... provide a backdrop for drawing room intrigue, revelry and temperance, devilry and romance; the abandon of artistic expression and the restraint of social convention.... So follow me, dear reader, into Fitzwilliam Square." Fitzwilliam Square on the south side of Dublin provides the setting and a true-life cast of characters for Lives Less Ordinary, which examines how the people of this Georgian square impacted on the history of Dublin and the wider world. These disparate denizens from a small residential enclave permeated every walk of Irish life - political, legal and cultural - in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. In this updated edition, we follow the inhabitants of Fitzwilliam Square into nineteenth century courtrooms; we witness their soldier sons on a succession of battlefields through personal reminiscences; we examine their remarkable artistic and literary output; we hear amusing anecdotes about the politicians, doctors and academics who lived there, including tales about duels, ghosts and political and personal scandals. On their own, the sketches offer an intriguing portrait of individual lives, but woven together they provide a fascinating overview of Irish life at a particular place and time. The stories are varied and wide-ranging, but they are anchored by the fact that they only involve those inhabitants of the sixty-nine houses of Dublin's Fitzwilliam Square....
