Trevor Galpin

The final years of Paul's life, spans the time beginning with his arrest in Jerusalem as recorded in Acts 21, his two year captivity in Caesarea and the ill-fated voyage to Rome, to his death in Rome some time later. The historical evidence is limited, as a result much is left to the imagination to reconstruct what happened in those years. It interacts with history as the first major persecution of Christians by the Roman Emperor Nero happens at that time. This book is therefore a dramatic fictional historical narrative. However this book, like all the other books I have written, is ultimately about the revelation of God as Father who wants to have relationship with his sons and daughters. Fictional writing gives the privilege of exploring this in a human context through the way the characters interact and behave; what they say to each other; how they to come to terms with the amazing revelation that God the Father was in Christ reconciling the world to himself and what this means in their everyday lives.

Falling from Grace and Being Caught by the Father, is the story of Trevor's journey into the amazing revelation of God as is his real Father and being his son. It charts the years leading up to this discovery and how he struggled to face the issues of his life that had prevented him from coming to this place of rest and joy. This is a book for all who face the "stuff" of their lives and wonder if there is any hope or future for them. This book will give you hope and the security that comes comes from discovering who you are as a beloved child of God and he is your real Father." In this book Trevor has been extremely transparent in his pathway in this life we call Christianity. He has faced himself. He lost everything including reputation, the most freeing thing to lose. He lost all security and many of his friends. He lost himself and his calling and destiny in ministry. It is a great source of satisfaction and joy to me to have been able to play a part in the redemption and restoration God has done in Trevor's life. God's calling and gifting are never taken away by Him I highly recommend this book to you and know many will find great encouragement in it."- James Jordan Founder and Director, Fatherheart Ministries

Where was Paul when he wrote the letter to the Romans? Did the church in Corinth manage to sort out its problems? How many letters did Paul write to Corinth? Did Paul get reconciled to John Mark? How did Paul cope with suffering? Where did Paul receive his comfort? Who wrote the letter to the Hebrews? These are just some of the questions addressed in this historical narrative about the Apostle Paul on his second and third missionary journeys. Trevor has constructed the story of the years when Paul travelled around the Aegean Sea from Luke's account in Acts and from Paul's personal details in his letters. Written in story form, this book draws the reader into the world of the Early Church and the heart and mind of the Apostle Paul and his amazing revelation of sonship in Christ.

This book is about Paul, the apostle who had an amazing revelation of the love of God the Father expressed through Jesus Christ his beloved Son. The revelation of the God who was in Christ. How did Paul receive such an incredible revelation? How was this legalistic Jewish Pharisee who persecuted the early church transformed into the man who has this profound revelation? Who was the man behind the words? What was the back story? Paul's story unfolds in the pages of the New Testament. His story is pieced together from the account written by Luke in the Acts of the Apostles along with some pieces of biographical information scattered through the thirteen letters written by Paul himself. This book also explores Paul's revelation and teaching because they are relevant for the Church today. Paul saw things with the eyes of his heart that very few have seen, and he still has much to teach us. James Jordan says of this book, "In this very easy to read, informative and entertaining book by my friend, brother and fellow servant of the Body of Christ, Trevor Galpin, you will be introduced to Paul in a deeper and more full way than I have ever known to be in print." This is the story of Paul.

Jesus never wrote a book, yet the impact of his words have changed the entire world. He said his work was to reveal the Father and he did this by talking about the Father to people. Ordinary people, his family, his friends, people who initially did not believe in him and in talks with people he met. In these conversations he faithfully and powerfully introduces the world to the greatest truth, the truth of all truths, that almighty God is his Father. He reveals that God is also our Father who wants us to know him and wants us to relate to him in the same way as Jesus does. This book is about that process of how Jesus revealed the Father through his conversations with his family and friends. It explores imaginatively how those people would have encountered Jesus and reacted to what he said. It then looks at how through the Gospels the Holy Spirit has brought all the implications of this revelation together. Today Jesus continues to reveal his Father to us and invites us into his relationship with him.

Since the very beginning of the Church Christians have taught and believed that God was revealed by Jesus as Father. Over time they came to define this in their creeds. Yet sadly in many ways the knowledge of God as a real and personal father was lost to the vast majority of the church. Along with this many other personal aspects of Christianity were lost to ordinary people as the centuries passed by. In the last few hundred years however a change began to take place as key biblical truth was rediscovered by people. This has reignited life into a moribund church. This book follows a journey through 2000 years of the history of the church looking at how generation after generation the church lost key biblical truth including the knowledge of God as a loving father. The author then charts the restoring of this forgotten truth back to the body of Christ right up to the present day. It's primary focus is the revelation of God as Father that is becoming widely talked about and taught in the church today, to the rediscovery of sonship and how this results in us living as sons and daughters.

Juutalainen fariseus, jonka me tunnemme nykyisin apostoli Paavalina, vainosi Jeesuksen Kristuksen seuraajia. Hän koki elämänsä järkytyksen menetettyään yhtäkkiä näkönsä poikkeuksellisen kohtaamisen seurauksena. Mutta tämä mullistava ilmestys johti myös Isä Jumalan rakkauden löytymiseen. Kertomus on kokonaisuudessaan Uudessa testamentissa. Se hahmottuu Luukkaan kuvauksista Apostolien teoissa ja omaelämäkerrallisista tiedoista Paavalin kolmessatoissa kirjeessä. Tässä kirjassa tarkastellaan myös Paavalin ilmestyksiä ja opetusta, koska niillä on merkitystä meidänkin aikamme seurakunnalle. Sydämensä silmin hän näki asioita, joita ani harvat ovat nähneet, ja hänellä on yhä paljon opetettavaa. James Jordan sanoo: "Helppolukuisessa, valaisevassa ja viihdyttävässä kirjassaan Trevor Galpin, ystäväni, veljeni ja työtoverini Kristuksen ruumiin palveluksessa, esittelee Paavalin syvällisemmin ja täydellisemmin kuin olen koskaan nähnyt painetussa muodossa." Tämä on Paavalin tarina. Trevor Galpin kuuluu Fatherheart Ministries -järjestön kansainväliseen johtotiimiin. Hänen intohimonaan on opettaa profeetallista ilmestystä Isän rakkaudesta, joka johtaa meidät elämään hänen poikinaan ja tyttärinään. Trevor Galpin matkustaa vaimonsa Lindan kanssa ympäri maailmaa puhumassa seurakunnissa, konferensseissa ja viikon mittaisissa Isänsydän A- ja B-kouluissa. Heillä on kolme aikuista lasta ja seitsemän lastenlasta Australiassa ja Uudessa-Seelannissa.
