So many of us struggle with prayer. Many books have been written on the subject and there's a reason for that. Prayer comes hard to most of us, in most seasons. And when we do pray, we often don't know what to say. What is it that my Father loves to hear about? What are the best things I could pray for my family, my church, and myself? I want to pray bigger, and better. And I want you to enjoy praying like that too. And to do that, we need to discover how to pray as the apostle Paul did. Paul clearly enjoyed prayer, and was excited about it. He expected his Father in heaven to hear what he said, and to act in other people's lives accordingly. He prayed and then was "watchful in it with thanksgiving" (Colossians 4 v 2), ready to see how God would be pleased to answer his prayers.This short book by renowned Bible teacher Alistair Begg combines warmth, clarity, humour, and practicality as he examines Paul’s prayers for his friends in the church in Ephesus.Paul clearly enjoyed prayer, and was excited about it.

As the ingenuity of criminals has developed over time, so have the techniques for catching them. The murderer Dr. Crippen's attempted getaway was foiled by the first use of radio at sea, and fingerprint evidence first secured a conviction as far back as 1902. Keith Skinner, a leading crime historian, and Alan Moss, a former Chief Superintendent, have trawled through the archives and selected twelve such fascinating 'firsts' from the history of the world-famous Scotland Yard - including the first 'wanted' picture in the press, the first successful use of identification parades, and the first conviction based on ballistics evidence. A lively narrative is supported by many previously unpublished images and documents from the Scotland Yard files at London's National Archives.

Do dziś nie wiadomo, kto stał za zbrodniami przypisywanymi Kubie Rozpruwaczowi, mordercy prostytutek z londyńskiego East Endu końca epoki wiktoriańskiej. Paul Begg rozważa kilka równorzędnych hipotez. Jego opowieść o zagadce seryjnego mordercy różni sie od innych książek na ten temat wyjątkowo skrupulatnie przedstawionym tłem historycznym i społecznym, na którym rozegrały się opisywane wydarzenia. Dzięki temu poznajemy tajemnice cieszących się złą sławą dzielnic dziewiętnastowiecznego Londynu, zasady pracy i techniki dochodzeniowe brytyjskiej policji oraz szczegółowe portrety ofiar mordercy. Autor dowodzi, że Kuba Rozpruwacz zostałby prawdopodobnie zapomniany, gdyby mordował gdzie indziej, zaś East End był sceną gotową na to, by rozegrały się na niej jakieś sensacyjne wydarzenia.
