Words of Grace

 

52 Reflections
A companion for every week of your year

Neil Tucker offers 52 reflections – one for each week of the calendar year. Each reflection considers a ‘word of grace’ which regularly recurs in the Bible: all, thanks, joy, peace, love, forgiveness, anxiety, and the words ‘Christmas’ and ‘Easter’. These words capture key concepts of human living, and the core beliefs of Christian faith.

This book’s purpose is not to argue the validity of each concept. It presents each word as a coherent idea of Christian tradition occurring in passages of the Bible, songs, and scholarly references. Readers will make their own choices of what they wish to believe.

Words of Grace was prompted by the author’s own personal journey of human living and search for understanding. It is written for fellow travellers in a contemporary world that has no shared narrative of human story and purpose, of secular belief and faith. The 18th century idea emphasising individual access to the divine, to science, and to any truth of human knowledge, has become in the 21st century “There is (are) no universal truth(s). There is only my (felt) truth – about anything.”

Whatever the faith position of readers, the ways of feeling and thinking offered here are profoundly influential in finding a personal daily way of human living and being.

Dead Leaves

 

From the horrors of the concentration camps to the beautiful hills of the poet’s home country, this collection explores the meanings and unusual consolations to be found in the daily routines of life and death.

There is a deep spiritual sensitivity evident throughout this poetry collection that seeks a human connection with the divine and a meaning to suffering as we transcend the sacred mystery that permeates all life.

This is the second collection from a poet who continues to explore the varying shades of darkness that make up the light.

God Saved Me From A Jail Sentence

 

The True Story Of A Drug Dealer Transformed By God’s Power

God literally saved me from a Jail sentence when he spoke to me in the middle of a drug deal and gave me instructions on what to do with all the drugs so I wouldn’t go to jail.

I gave my life to the Lord Jesus Christ; he delivered me from anger, he delivered me from a hatred of women, he saved me from being lost at sea, he healed my fingers when I nailed them together with a nail gun, he put oil in my motorbike and stayed with me for five hundred kilometers to get me home.

About the Author

 

Ronald Keith Fraser, founder and director of New Direction Care Ministries Ltd, shares the story of his life’s transformation—from a troubled youth involved in drugs to a man dedicated to helping others fi nd hope and healing.

One of eleven children, Ronald’s early years took a difficult turn when he became involved in drug dealing. But a series of unexpected moments and narrow escapes made him stop and reconsider his path. In 1977, at the age of 23, he made the decision to follow Jesus Christ, a choice that marked a turning point in his life.

Since then, Ronald has dedicated himself to community work and ministry. He has run youth groups, launched a suicide and drug prevention program for young people, and led seminars focused on healing and restoration. Along the way, he also completed a four-year counselling course to support those in need more effectively.

God Saved Me From A Jail Sentence is a thoughtful refl ection on second chances, faith, and a life reshaped by purpose.

God’s View of Marriage

 

An Apologetic on Marriage, Divorce and Remarriage

GOD’S VIEW OF MARRIAGE is an apologetic on Marriage, Divorce and Remarriage. It argues that God’s governance of marriage, first established in Genesis 2:22-25, is His arrangement for a committed relationship between a man and a woman. It is a commitment for life and cannot be broken unless death for either party occurs (Mark 10:5-9; Romans 7:2-3; 1 Cor. 7:39). Sadly, God’s governance of such is now ignored by many in the Protestant faith tradition.

The book systematically supports God’s view by noting specifically Jesus and the Apostle Paul’s affirmation of such in the New Testament narratives. The book presents a challenge to those who believe, oversight, teach and support the impermanence of marriage.

The book is the fifth written by the author who believes that God is a God of absolutes and one of those absolutes is His view of marriage.

Table of Eight

A Life in Service to Humanity

Around Every Table of Eight, a Refugee Story Connects Us All.

From the post-war refugee crises to the African droughts of the 1980s, Table of Eight chronicles Brian’s extraordinary journey at the intersection of faith and global humanitarian aid. Through innovative tripartite partnerships—uniting the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), host governments, and receptive NGOs—Brian played a pivotal role in providing refuge, resources, and hope to displaced populations worldwide.

Drawing from his experiences with the Lutheran World Federation (LWF), an ecumenical organization founded in 1947, Brian sheds light on ground-breaking interfaith outreach efforts, from the Middle East and Hong Kong to the Indian subcontinent. He recounts his contributions to international cooperation, including the establishment of the Steering Committee for Humanitarian Response (SCHR), advocacy for landmine bans, and strengthening UN mechanisms for aid delivery.

With unwavering faith in the power of miracles and a commitment to the ethos of the Good Samaritan, Brian reflects on the transformative role of church agencies in saving millions of lives during some of history’s darkest moments. This memoir is not just a testament to his life’s work but a call to action—to see the humanity in others, step into the gap, and make a difference.

This is a story of compassion in action, a legacy of faith through service, and an invitation to believe in the extraordinary.
