A trilogy of books to inspire and motivate youth to follow Christ.All three novels set in the time period near the end of Apartheid in South Africa Something Beautiful Sandy Johnson is not beautiful, at least not as beautiful as Amanda and Helen, her two arch enemies who are making her life miserable. Something Good Can anything good come out of a family given to crime? This is the question Leon de Bruyn, and the residents of the small town of Paulpietersburg, will have to answer. Something Special In a country and time where a person's value is determined by the colour of their skin, only trouble can result when a coloured boy meets a beautiful White girl.

The Making of a Personal Evangelist, as the title suggests, is more about becoming an evangelist than it is about the method employed. Jesus told us that if we follow Him He will make us to become fishers of men - He would transform us into evangelists. The Making of a Personal Evangelist is a course that lays out the life principles, that if followed, will transform men and women into evangelists even before they adopt a method. The method subsequently just becomes the tool to get the job done. This is not a book for the casual student. Both teacher and student need to be serious about reaching the lost, and about submitting to the process of becoming what they may not initially feel qualified to be. It is about allowing Jesus Christ to make them into fishers of men. For those who are willing to accept the challenge, this book will doubtless be of inestimable value.

As useful as books on prayer by human authors can be, actual Biblical examples of Prayer are even better. Men may tell us of their own experiences in their pursuit of God through prayer, and benefit us greatly. Prayer as revealed in Scripture can provide us with an even better idea of what prayers please God, and of those that do not. This book, and those to follow, seeks to present prayer as the Bible describes it. With no pretense to personal expertise, I send forth this book, confident that God will bless His own Word.
