Why Spiritual Friendship?
Spiritual friendship is friendship that is rooted in Christ for the purpose of helping followers of Jesus grow in Christlikeness. Our model for spiritual friendship takes its cue from Jesus, who called together a community (Matthew 4:18–22) at the start of His public ministry.
The Christian life can be described as following Jesus in the company of friends. But how many of us have these vital and life-giving relationships in place?
Why Publishing?
It is all too easy to live a life that divides the sacred from the secular. But we believe that all of life is lived under God; that there is no such divide.
So we publish books to help followers of Jesus Christ embrace spiritual friendship, and live out their faith in the world. Our books help them connect the Word of God with the issues of daily life — truth for life — issues like busyness, young adulthood, marriage, parenting, growing old, work as worship to God, politics, corruption, to name a few.

Too thin-skinned
I think Christians on both sides of the Causeway are too thin-skinned. In a recent debate in the Malaysian parliament on a bill to increase penalties for drink driving, a member of parliament from PAS (the Islamic Party), Nik Muhammad Zamawi Salleh, said that all the...
Reflections of a Budding Septuagenarian
It’s a frightening thought…when we come to the end of our lives, what we believe will either uphold us or betray us. I moved into my seventies last year. Before then, I refused to think of growing old, just older. But as energy levels decline and memory recall slows...
The Generations Project
We are living in a unique point in history where we have at least five generations alive simultaneously. Different studies may define the five generations slightly differently but here are the five generations: Gen Z: Born between 1995–2015 Millennial: Born between...

Full and Grateful
It's a bit hard to believe that this is the last Graceworks commentary for the year. This year feels more full than other years. Perhaps it has been developments in family, especially caring for mum in Penang. She is 92, living with dementia and other health issues....
Wait for it, wait for it…
And there were shepherds living out in the fields nearby, keeping watch over their flocks at night. An angel of the Lord appeared to them, and the glory of the Lord shone around them, and they were terrified. But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid. I bring you...
Mary Was No Wimp
Mary, the mother of Jesus, was no wimp. The angel Gabriel declared that Mary was “highly favoured” and that the Lord was with her (Luke 1:26–28), which are Luke’s code words for the fact that Mary was a woman of substance. She was maybe 14 years old? Yet she stood her...
