There’s a Point to it

 

A History of Immanuel Lutheran Church, Point Pass, 1876-2026

For 150 years, Immanuel Lutheran Church at Point Pass has stood at the heart of faith, learning, and community in South Australia.

Founded in 1876, Immanuel shaped generations through worship, education, and service, giving rise to Immanuel College and influencing Lutheran life far beyond its rural setting.

Drawing on new research, this book traces the congregation’s journey through settlement, division and reunion, war, pastoral change, and renewal. It tells a deeply human story of faith lived ‘under the shadow of the belltower,’ and off ers a lasting tribute
to a congregation whose proud legacy continues to endure.

If Blue is for Boys and Pink is for Girls, What Colour is for Me ?

 

A guide to finding identity beyond the boxes

What colour do you choose when the world insists on only blue or pink?

In this candid and heartfelt memoir, the author invites readers into the in-between spaces—the moments of growing up nonbinary in a world built on binaries. Through a collection of personal stories, each carrying its own lesson about life, love, and identity, this book offers both insight and comfort for anyone who has ever felt like they didn’t quite fit into the boxes provided.

Far from being a “how-to” guide, this is a celebration of difference, resilience, and embracing your own version of weird. It’s about finding your truth, standing tall in it, and reminding others that they are already whole—exactly as they are.

If you’ve ever wondered what it means to belong outside the lines, this book is your reminder that uniqueness is its own kind of universal.

The Forks in the Road

 

After 50 years, Elizabeth looks back with gratitude that she seems to have emerged positively.

This is Elizabeth Muffet’s story of murder, corruption and paranormal activity.

Life was busy, enjoyable and rewarding for Elizabeth, a nurse who was newly married and now excitedly preparing for a new addition to the family. She did not expect to suddenly be confronted with a murder next door.

As she navigated many difficult twists and turns as she faced the inevitable drama, she slowly realised there was much more to existing on this Earth than she first thought. She began looking for understandable answers to the obvious questions and thoughts that most people have at some point in their lives:

What is this life really all about?
Surely we don’t just exist for a short time… then nothing?
None of us asked to be born, but here we find ourselves.
What of the curious unseen powers which seem to exist in our realm?
What of the mysteries of death?
And what of the awareness and fear hanging over every one of
us, that we all must face our own death sooner or later?

There’s Something About Trump

 

Let’s Ask Hank the Yank

“All the Kings horses and all the Kings men, Couldn’t put Humpty back together again!”

Written with underlying humour and laced with contextual cynicism, There’s Something About Trump, presents a mirrored interpretation of real-World outcomes.

Rowell has presented an interesting narrative whilst interpreting the press releases of the Donald Trump administration alongside personal commentary on the underlying statements therein.

About the Author

 

Douglas Michael Rowell is by now credibly able to call himself an author, having successfully written and presented this as his third published book. Never in his wildest dreams did he consider that he would rise to such a level of literary accreditation. He is a humble 88-and-a-half-year-old pensioner. Doug claims that he is able to claim the extra half as he is over 80 years of age.

Most of his academic life, he strived to become a professional engineer, and by practice to be a fellow of that grand institution. Most of his working life, he ventured into the realms of engineering science, making runs along the way.

He now lives in a single-bedroom unit in a delightful Retirement Village called Forest Grove, in Durack, Brisbane. Doug considers his village life to be something akin to the Garden of Eden.

The sweetness of dust

‘I guess it’s not surprising. As the living get quieter, the dead get louder.’

In her debut poetry collection The sweetness of dust, Amanda Kube explores what it feels like to close the book on a five generation Wimmera-Mallee farm. Moving deftly between shifts in time and perspective Kube draws us into daily life, where forebears are never far – ‘a glimpse, a shadow, disappearing around the corner’ – providing solace and admonishment.

More tender confessional than outback yarn, Kube’s gaze is wide open; embodied and lyrical. The women of this place step forward and tell stories of loneliness, isolation, and endless chores that sit alongside moments of quiet revelation. The farm always the central, nameless character – both cradle and constraint – connecting this restless family to Wotjobaluk presence. Walk with Adelene who has gone before. She circles the farm, still feeling the gravitational pull to place, with some things on her mind.
