More info...
William Wilberforce is best remembered as the parliamentary leader for
the British campaign to abolish the slave trade. He took on the financial
system of his day and fought an incredible twenty-year battle in order to
bring about justice and freedom for the marginalized and the vulnerable.
But this rarest of politicians was motivated by a radical faith in Jesus
that also led him to spearhead a number of other causes.
Summary
Read the full story of Wilberforce and his
friends in the Clapham Sect: how they not
only abolished the transatlantic slave trade
that was destroying Africa, but also began
a missionary movement in India, sent Bibles
across the world, were at the forefront of
improving education for the poor of Britain,
and finally succeeded in bringing emancipation
for all slaves throughout the British Empire.
Mark Williamson serves

‘This book is a compelling read…It details the ever greater power of
Jesus, who saves lives and brings about a complete transformation to
those lives which are on the path to utter destruction, in a way that
nothing and no one else can. The book reveals how God’s love, grace
and true forgiveness turn not only Rod’s life around, but also the lives of
his long-time accomplices and shows how that has impacted hundreds
of others’ lives for the better. His accomplices also give us an insight into
their own journey with Rod. Altogether, a mighty powerful read.’

Here’s to the Ones
Rhett Walker Band
The second album from the Rhett Walker Band, following on
from their successful debut album Come to the River.
After bursting onto the scene with the smash hit ‘When
Mercy Found Me’ in 2012, Rhett and his band of brothers
have carved out a unique place in Christian music blending
pop, rock and rootsy Americana into a sound that reaches
an ever-growing audience. Meanwhile, themes of faith,
family and country continue to be at the core of Rhett
Walker Band’s music.
Key songs on the album include the new radio single
‘Amazed’ as well as ‘Love Like Jesus’ and ‘Better Part of
Me’ which takes an honest look at marriage and supporting
one’s spouse. The anthemic title track ‘Here’s to the Ones’
salutes and honours those who work hard to support their
families and who stand up for their faith. The band continues to write and sing songs that are filled with honesty
about brokenness and the hope and strength we can find
through faith in God.
Songs
Rhett Walker is the outspoken son of a preacher, who was
born and raised in the American
South. His mellow yet animated
voice is a sure mix of Georgia and the Carolinas. In that
drawl, he tells an intense ‘wild
oats’ story tempered by God’s
grace – a testimony that fuels the deep-fried rock and deep-down
worship. The band comprises Rhett Walker on vocals and rhythm
guitar, Kenny Davis on drums, Joe Kane on lead guitar and Kevin
Whitsett on bass.
