Rob Joy was only ever going to end up dead. Most of his family, friends and local community had lost any hope of him staying alive let alone making anything of his life. Racked with addiction, extremely violent and full of fear and shame, Rob himself knew that his life was as good as over and he literally gave up. The only thing stopping him from ending it all now was trying to find the nerve to kill himself.
Today, Rob and his wife Lydia head up Storming the Nations Ministries and speak regularly in prisons, schools, churches and events in the UK and recently abroad too. Rob has a burning passion to see the lost saved and the church revived. Read his amazing story of transformation with his new book Internal Revolution.
Rob JoyRob Joy spent years of his life hooked on hard drugs and lived a life of organised crime and violence. After having a dramatic turn around in 2005 Rob now travels all across the UK as a speaker, sharing his story in schools, prisons, conferences and events.
Rob has a passion to warn, encourage and educate not just those involved in drugs but also national leaders and government officials.
He has written his story in his autobiography titled Internal Revolution which will be released in March 2012.
"I found it a refreshing change reading The Word of the Wives by Abby and Michele Guinness. It is a series of monologues from the point of view of women in the bible, from Mrs Noah to Mrs Potiphar (two of my favourites!) They are funny and moving, and really make you think differently about some of the stories we know so well, from the perspectives of some very interesting women! Her theatrical approach makes them fun to both read and perform, and inspires new ways of sharing the stories of the bible. Will make you laugh, and make you think – a good combination in my opinion!"
In a world where children are probably more familiar with Harry Potter than Jesus, it's often hard to encourage them to read the Bible in its traditional form. YHWH introduces the wonderful Bible stories to them in a way that captures their imagination.

Suspend your disbelief and just read, learn and be amazed at what an uneducated man can achieve by following God’s guidance and acting in faith.
Smith Wigglesworth 1859-1947 was not an attractive man but God does not judge by appearances, He knew that this was the right man to serve him at this particular time. ‘Wherever he ministered he sought to raise his listeners level of faith,..........and critical to building faith, he stressed, was to put faith into action’ (page 100) and this he did to his utmost. Despite his repetitious preaching, based solely on his knowledge of the Bible and no other reading or study, his charisma held the attention of congregations large- even huge – and small, and his particular gift was healing in the name of Jesus. Healing physical and mental conditions and even on occasion raising people from the dead.
He travelled the world and this gruff Yorkshireman, one time plumber, was known more abroad that in the UK. Many were sceptical of his doings, but that did not deter him. This biography will help you to get to know the man he was.
