Real Lives

You're on a train; you look at the people opposite. Someone hides behind a newspaper. Another dozes. A young man nods, not to you, but rather in time to the throb of the beat from his iPod. A baby cries further along the compartment. The Mother's 'shushes' are occasionally drowned out by the raucous laughter from the lager-swilling football fans celebrating an away-victory. Someone's mobile goes off. Eavesdropping on the conversation you catch a sound bite of someone's life. Who are they, you wonder? Real people. All different. Some famous, some not. Everyone with a life story – 'Real Lives'.

This book holds the life stories of twelve very different people. How do they live? What makes them tick? 'Real Lives' looks at the personal thoughts and actions of people from the street and even people from the public eye including Hans Segar and Barrington Williams.

The thread of spiritual awakening is found in each of the lives that are put under the microscope. Ideal for those finding out about Christianity or those who need to know, 'Real Lives' shows the journey of enlightenment experienced by twelve very different people.
