With global sales running into the tens of millions, Fifty Shades of Grey and its two sequels by E. L. James are not so much books as a publishing phenomenon. Why have these books been so successful? For a start, they follow a tried and tested formula straight out of Mills & Boon: take one slightly clumsy, socially inept, plain and virginal girl and one cool, handsome, incredibly rich and powerful young man – put them together and eventually, despite trials and tribulations, (you guessed it) it all works out.

Who's right and who's wrong?

The A21 Campaign was birthed while we were walking through the Macedonia airport in Greece. The walls were plastered with photos of women and children who were ‘missing’.

Chairman and Trustee – Philo Trust

As a Trust we want to thank and bless all of you who so faithfully give to Philo Trust to support J.John’s ministry. Without your faithful support this ministry could not operate which would mean many people would not hear the Good News of Jesus Christ, and many Christians would not be equipped, resourced and helped in their daily walk with the Lord. Every pound, euro or dollar that is sown into Philo Trust is used wisely and we so appreciate your continued help to resource us so that we can resource others.
