Adrian Reynolds points us to the Rich book and my good friend David Gibson now tells me that the Rich brand is extending to a course that can be accessed here . Hopefully we'll get videos and t shirts, even mugs of the Rich course in the future. In all seriousness the course does look quite good...

J. Graham Miller was a minister, missionary and Theological College principal. A New Zealander by birth, he lived in Australia and the New Hebrides. The Banner of Truth have published his autobiography, 'A day's march nearer home' which is a lovely read. It has been published after his death and so...
