John Sykes

Reprint of the original, first published in 1867.

London is full of strange and beautiful sights. It is a place for traditions and rebels, for the establishment and every alternative subculture. This book celebrates the diversity of the city. It invites you to see Little Ben or the fake 10 Downing Street, and answers both conventional and unusual questions. What, apart from Rolling Scones, will you see at God’s Own Junkyard? Where does an old-school gentleman buy his wine and umbrellas? Why did Robbie Williams feud with his next-door neighbour? How has the city commemorated the Queen Mother and Princess Diana? In which park do 100-year-old naked ladies cavort on the banks of the Thames? Where did Lenin and Julian Assange campaign for their beliefs? And which bridge rolls itself up?

During the dark days of the First World War, British Prime Minister David Lloyd George said, "When the chariot of humanity gets stuck, nothing will bring it out of the mud better than 'the foolishness of preaching.'"He was right. In the year 2020 the world indeed got mired in the mud of pandemic and cultural crisis. This is why we need men of God, like Pastor John Sykes, who stand boldly for the Word of God. This book, God's Thunderclap , was born out of a series of sermons delivered during the darkest days of the COVID-19 crisis. Now available to readers everywhere, you'll be encouraged and inspired by what this unique servant of the Lord has to say.
