šŸ•Šļø What if spotting a swooping seagull could remind you to hand your worries over to God?

For author and illustrator Debbie Green, that's exactly what happens.

Her new book, See That Swooping Seagull, began with prayers for a young woman at Debbie's church whose life was being limited by worry. During a writers' retreat, Debbie couldn't get her off her mind, so she put those prayers into a poem.

That poem became a book designed to help children slow down, redirect troublesome thoughts and remember the biblical truths they can turn to when they're worried.

Combining Debbie's words with her own colouring illustrations, it's a book to read, colour and come back to when worries feel a little too big.

And Debbie admits the message has ended up helping her too:

ā€œI am constantly now being nudged by God to look up at swooping seagulls!ā€

Her hope for the children who read it?

ā€œI'd like to set them free from hours of needless worry.ā€

What does a life of faith look like when it costs you something?

Amy Carmichael's story has continued to challenge generations of Christians because hers wasn't a faith confined to words.

It was lived.

Through service. Sacrifice. Courage. And a willingness to go where she believed God was calling her.

Her life reminds us that some of the most extraordinary things God does begin with an ordinary person willing to say yes.

If you've never discovered Amy Carmichael's story, or it's been many years since you did, perhaps it's time to meet her again.

Maybe you didn’t get everything done today.

Maybe the list is still long, the kitchen still needs sorting, the emails are unanswered and your head is already somewhere in tomorrow.

But before you carry all of that into the evening, remember this:

"Be still, and know that I am God.ā€
Psalm 46:10**

Not *do more*.

Not sort everything out

Not have all the answers.

Be still.

Sometimes faith looks less like pushing forward and more like remembering who is holding you when you stop.

Whatever today has been, may you find a little space to rest tonight. šŸ¤

šŸ“ŗ Tune in to Songs of Praise today!

We’re delighted to see Claire and Steve Musters appearing on Songs of Praise today, sharing something of their story and talking about marriage, faith and the grace that has shaped their relationship.

Claire and Steve are the authors of Grace-Filled Marriage: Strengthened and transformed through God’s redemptive love.

And theirs isn’t a story of a perfect marriage.

It’s a story of difficulty, forgiveness, rebuilding and discovering what can happen when God’s grace is allowed into the messy, complicated and very human reality of sharing a life together.

In Grace-Filled Marriage, Claire and Steve draw honestly from their own experiences to explore how the gospel can sit at the heart of marriage, not as a quick fix, but as something that continues to shape, challenge and transform us.

We’re incredibly proud to have published their story and can’t wait to see them on BBC Songs of Praise today.

If their conversation resonates with you, you can continue the journey in Grace-Filled Marriage, available now.

Summer evenings invite us to slow down a little.

The light lingers. The noise of the day begins to fade. And perhaps there’s space to sit, open a book, and simply dwell.

Dwell by Anne Le Tissier is an invitation to spend meaningful time with God, to read Scripture prayerfully, reflect deeply and allow His words to take root in the everyday.

Not another thing to rush through or tick off the list.

Just a few quiet moments to pause, listen and make space for God.

Whether it’s with your morning coffee, in a quiet corner of the day, or while the summer evening light is still streaming through the window, *Dwell* can help you rediscover the richness of spending time in His presence.

ā˜€ļø A little holiday reading that goes deeper than the sun lounger…

Holidays can give us something we don’t always have enough of: space.

Space to slow down. To read. To think. And sometimes, to sit with the parts of life that are a little more complicated than we usually allow ourselves time for.

In Glorious, Holly Satterthwaite writes:

ā€œI wonder what the word ā€˜motherhood’ conjures up in your mind. Some of you may feel as though you are right in the trenches of raising sticky-fingered toddlers or emotionally complex teenagers. For some of you, the word elicits a sting of longing, the devastation of loss or an indifferent apathy to a future you can’t quite picture… Rest assured; this chapter is for all of you.ā€

That last line matters. This chapter is for all of you.

Glorious is a book about womanhood, faith and finding our identity in God beyond the roles, expectations and labels that can so easily define us.

If you’re choosing something meaningful to slip into your suitcase this summer, this might be the one. šŸ“–ā˜€ļø

A new day. A new week. The same faithful God.

Sunday is more than the end of one week or the beginning of another. It's an opportunity to pause, worship, and remember who is in control.

Whatever lies ahead this week, celebrations, challenges, ordinary moments or unexpected surprises, you do not walk into them alone.

Take time today to lift your eyes, quiet your heart, and thank God for His faithfulness. His mercies are new every morning, and His promises never fail.

"This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."
Psalm 118:24 (KJV)

May your Sunday be filled with worship, peace, and renewed hope for the week ahead.

As another week draws to a close, remember this...

Not every burden was meant to be carried alone.

Some weeks leave us full of joy. Others leave us tired, stretched, or wondering how we'll face Monday. Yet Jesus' invitation remains unchanged.

"Come unto me..."

Before you rush into the weekend, take a moment to pause. Put down the weight you've been carrying and spend time in the presence of the One who promises true rest.

May your weekend be filled with peace that goes deeper than circumstances and strength that only God can provide.

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."
Matthew 11:28 (KJV)

"What you read today shapes who you become tomorrow."

Some books simply entertain.

Others quietly change the way you think, grow your faith and equip you to make a difference.

That's exactly what Dr Katie Porter saw in The Art of Reading by Matthew Porter:

"This excellent short book explores the what, when, how and why of the art of reading with clarity and inspiration. Drawing on years of Matthew's personal experience, it offers practical tools while encouraging readers to grow in wisdom and become bringers of change."

Whether you're an avid reader or hoping to build a more intentional reading habit, The Art of Reading is an invitation to read with purpose and to allow God to use what you read to shape the person you're becoming.

Available now.
