Can answers to the biggest questions in life be found? Today there are many who are unsure whether there is a creator God, are uncertain about religion and yet instinctively feel that their life has a purpose and that values such as love, truth, honesty, beauty, logic and kindness are real. This book has been written to help such people make sense of their existence and to indicate the types of evidence available to help people find a strong rational faith. "So many people think faith is a feeling or a flight of fantasy, by contrast Cambridge-educated medical surgeon, Dr Bernard Palmer, makes it clear that there is outstanding evidence at the basis of Christian belief. But he does not stop there, he then not only shows what that evidence means for our lives, he also reveals what the reader should do about it. That is the rhythm of this excellent book: the evidence, its meaning and our action, which makes this a profoundly challenging read that appeals to the mind, the heart and the will." Rico Tice Christianity Explored "I am both delighted and honoured to recommend Bernard Palmer's new book to you. There are three reasons for this. First, he himself truly believes the things he is asking you to believe. Second, he writes about profound matters in such a way that it is not only easy to follow but it is winsome and appealing. But thirdly, he is offering us 'Stepping Stones' to a new life by introducing us to Jesus Christ with compelling reasons to become a believer. And this is the most important thing of all." Frank Retief Retired presiding bishop of the Reformed Evangelical Church of Southern Africa

'Are you foreign? Why would you come to Iran? Please tell your friends back home that we are nothing like the Western media.' These were among the phrases that Rose would hear almost daily in Tehran. Hijabs, Hitchhiking and Hangovers: Lessons from Iran is a coming-of-age travel adventure. At the age of 20, Rose was part of the first group of Cambridge students to study in Iran after Iran re-opened its borders to the West. Navigating Foreign Office warnings and nuclear sanctions, she was at first a rather reluctant traveller, overwhelmed by the culture clashes, language barriers and Islamic law. Through a collection of short stories, Rose tells of how she makes a home in Iran, experiences unexpected kindness and gets to grips with the Farsi language. At times amusing and at others, tragically telling of the harsh realities of Iranian society, Hijabs, Hitchhiking and Hangovers is a gripping account of self-reliance and the often dangerous impact of politics on travel abroad.

Our human body contains far more wonder than we realize. It is a sacred vessel, with our unique soul held safe within. Though Earth is our playground, the profound teachings of our physical and spiritual anatomy have been lost or forgotten over time.

The answer lies in the wisdom of Ascended Master teacher Serapis Bey, relayed through channelled guidance interwoven with enlightening insights. Serapis introduces readers to their spirit, body, soul, latent spiritual powers, life-force energy, intelligent bodily organs - all keys to mastery which attract bounty, wisdom and positivity into our realm. We each hold the power to open doorways to higher states of being. Serapis shows how to activate the invisible spiritual heart and I AM presence, the seat of the soul, allowing profound transformation to occur. Tapping into this abundant wisdom reveals the incredible gifts existing within our spiritual body, proving how we can powerfully shape our experience by consciously attracting and dispelling influences. Serapis further unveils why speech holds such power, the esoteric significance of the heart, the spiritual essence animating our corporeal form, the Akashic records' role, principles of magnetic attraction and synchronicity's hidden hand. Yes, it is through communing with our spiritual body that life's true purpose unfolds, unveiling contentment and profound realization of our soul's divine mission. An amazing journey awaits!
