Some December Highlights
Godly, faithful pastors are a true blessing to local churches, and it is right that we ‘regard them very highly in love because of their work‘ (1 Thess 5:13).
As 2026 draws nearer, Grace Publications are pioneering a scheme which allows individual Christians, or entire congregations, to honour and bless those who serve the Saviour faithfully. Our new Pastor Appreciation Packs are a great way to minister to the heart of those who minister to us right throughout the year.
Here’s how the scheme works:
*You or your church prepays £95 for a year’s subscription to the scheme.
*In 2026 we will post a Pastor Appreciation Pack directly to your pastor every two months. Each pack will contain a postcard featuring original art prints by contemporary Christian artists and prompts for prayer, and a helpful book/Bible from our catalogue, along with some extra treats. The linked video provides further information on how this initiative works.
The Pastor Appreciation Packs provide you with an opportunity to give a gift this Christmas that will keep on blessing your pastor throughout the year!
Pastor Appreciation Packs are only available within the UK, and opportunity to subscribe will close on Wednesday 31st December 2025.
The first volume in our ‘A People on Purpose’ series is now available at a special pre-order price, in advance of its release in early 2026. In Independent Eldership, Stephen Kneale provides a biblical and practical survey of New Testament teaching on how leaders are recognised and trained in the local church, how their role relates to independency, and how their ministry can be fulfilled most effectively.
Here’s what Mez McConnell has to say about this volume:
‘I absolutely love this book! I intend to make this book my go to manual at 20schemes for future elders, leaders, church planters and church revitalisers. The real beauty of the book lies in its easy accessibility for the average church member. This is a book every Christian ought to read and every church ought to study.‘
