"I've learnt", Shirley Nicholson writes, "to listen to island talk" and this book proves the truth of that, with its close observation of the birds, animals and people of Fair Isle, and the note it strikes, again and again, of wonder at her good fortune in finding herself on this northern island. But Nicholson's poems are more than tributes to what that place's winds blow in her direction. Nicholson is also both an observer and practitioner of what she calls "island skills" and these poems nip at their lines, cast off images, and steadily stitch together memorable patterns which are possessed by a singing weather of their own. - John McAuliffe It's not often that someone can come in on a small island community and understand the rhythm of life in all its cyclical glory, and portray it with such detailed beauty and understanding, but that's exactly what Shirley has achieved with her heartfelt portrayal of Fair Isle, its people, wildlife, seasons and landscape. She weaves the past into the present in a tantalising journey through the island, drawing the reader in, and painting a beautiful technicolour portrait in words and verse of island life. - Laurie Goodlad

Religion is big business. Blessings mentioned in the Bible have been turned into monetary opportunities. If G_d blesses you then it must be in terms of money. Churches now stage "blessings" to people by giving them money. Ministers show the blessings of G_d by asking people to give them money for jets and mansions. Unfortunately, many have fallen into this fraudulent belief system. Weightier Matters addresses the foundational giving structure for most churches and its true meaning: The Tithe! What is the tithe? Why was the tithe originally established? Is the tithe just money or does it represent something greater? Dr. Lanston M. Sylvester invites you to walk with him to rediscover what really matters. Clothes, houses, jets may attract many and tap into their base desires, but people matter. Justice and righteousness must be the basis of the money that is collected in the church. The poor, the homeless, the foster kids, the widows, and the immigrants should be the beneficiaries of communities (churches) that pool their monetary resources together. If churches spend more on feeding themselves than relieving suffering, that church has yet to understand what the tithe is."Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you pay tithe of mint, and anise, and cummin but have neglected the weightier matter of the law: justice, mercy and faith. These you ought to have done, without leaving the others undone." Matthew 23:23 NKJV

Contained within the pages of Silent Cry within the Church are the true testimonies of what victims of Domestic Violence have experienced in the church after bravely speaking out.

Whether a victim, perpetrator, or child, the answer to violence within the home is the same for all-Jesus Christ. He alone is our deliverer and healer of the broken heart.
