Rahab was a young woman of Jericho who, at the time the children of Israel first approached the Promised Land thousands of years ago, was gainfully employed in a certain high-demand section of the hospitality industry. She was, as Joshua 2:1 tastefully puts it, a "harlot". Here are ten humorous but reverent essays on female heroes of the Scriptures to enjoy. And not necessarily the ones you might expect!

We all have our "down" days occasionally, but clinical depression is quite a different ball game, with persistent and sometimes severe symptoms which can bring about a significant deterioration in quality of life, impairments in day-to-day functioning, and even risk to life. Up to 20 percent of people will suffer from depression at some point in their lifetime. This little book aims to demystify the disorder to some extent, identifying the many possible symptoms of depression, as well as summarising its known causes and recommended treatments.
