Sobre IBD

During the 18th Century, or rather overlapping it somewhat, four radical voices spoke out in Bandon, County Cork, creating a strong impression that has continued to this day.Though each voice came from a (broadly) Christian context, they were sternly critical of the established Church, totally committed to social activism, and energetically engaged in bringing about change. In different ways they each paid dearly for their faith-stance. In this little book we examine the contribution of John WESLEY, William HAZLITT, Dean SWIFT and George FOX.

  • Nehemiah
    Dr Ken Baker
    When I came to preach and teach on the book of Nehemiah, a friend of mine -David Crawford-Bixby- suggested the word 'Blueprint' and I’ve found it an illuminating suggestion. For not only was Nehemiah a capable project manager who must have dealt with some ancient version of the blueprint in his construction work, but the word itself forms a parable of how God dealt with him. As...

(Eph 4:17-23).This book is a pastoral analysis of how that works. It seeks to look practically at the rad...

  • Grace Notes
    Dr Ken Baker
    A 'grace note' is a music notation that the individual performer has to interpret for himself. Isn’t that amazing? Here’s the main melody (the composer seemed to say), and sort the rest of it out for yourself! It’s like a parable for how to do life. There are general broad principles to follow, like the Ten Commandments, but the real fun comes in the grace notes, the extra bits...
