Black Friday
Black Friday is a journey, a reckoning, and a call to the heartbeat of a people who refuse to be forgotten. It is a reflection, a meditation, and a manifesto for the African renaissance—a reminder that our story is still being written, and that its next chapter demands courage.
The author once believed the world was evolving, that humanity would mature and progress, and that African people would finally radiate in dignity. He imagined a future where the scars of slavery, colonialism, and neocolonialism would fade into irrelevance. But the present reality shattered that hope. The systems remain oppressive. The headlines still bleed. The African continues to wrestle with inherited struggle.
For this reason, Black Friday returns tapping into the African spirit in us—not as a lament, but as a living testament of a people with resilience looking to take its true place.

Drinks, Cheese and Nipples
Empty. Abandoned. In 1974, nobody wanted to be burdened with the old rectory on the outskirts of Cambridge. It had once stood proudly as one of the grandest residences in the area. Not anymore.
Fortunately, two indomitable ladies, one from Japan and the other a Swede, had other ideas. A shared vision. Working together across time zones and cultures, they brought life back to the building.
They created something that was to change thousands of lives. A language school for people from all over the world.
Who could follow this double act? Two men, from very different backgrounds, were asked to continue the ladies’ work, and each took their turn at the helm.
For half a century, the school, and everybody who became a part of it, excelled, struggled, laughed and loved.
Drinks, Cheese and Nipples tells a remarkable story of dedication, resilience and, above all, hope.

Freedom
‘Freedom’ shows divine instruction that is reflected in free democracy that is rooted in biblical law. ‘Freedom’ sees God as a pathway to liberation rather than limitation, guiding readers towards a deeper understanding of what it truly means to live free, in having God’s Spirit because of being born again. God’s boundaries do not restrict freedom; they establish it.
The ability to distinguish between degrees of freedom is a reality. This can be based on external or internal permission and self-definition, but true freedom is rooted in Christ. A shift from seeing God as restrictive to recognising Him as the author of liberty. ‘Freedom’ offers a timely and distinctive contribution to Christian living by addressing a universal human longing through a fresh conceptual lens by identifying conforming as a barrier to true freedom and presenting Christ as the definitive solution.
‘As the definitive solution, the book speaks powerfully into contemporary culture and spiritual conversations.
‘Freedom’ concerns the prevention of taking the freedom of others and the temptation to take freedom unlawfully.’
It addresses the psychology of men – how the law determines our personalities and character.’

Is God Real?
In our world of busyness and distraction it can be difficult to recognise God’s attempts to catch our attention. God finds various ways to make us aware of the Spirit’s presence. This may include a seemingly unexplainable miracle or coincidence, a gentle personal whisper which speaks to our hearts, or a sudden recognition of a deep truth or a scene of incredible beauty, all of which we recognise as belonging to the world of mystery. How difficult it can be for us to remember the fullness and the wonder of those encounters because of the busyness and distractions our lives constantly offer.
What I have therefore attempted to collate in this book are instances and thoughts from my own life and those of others that speak to the reality of God’s presence and purpose. I have also included my thoughts on subjects not normally addressed from the pulpit.

The Amazing Travels of Two Pauper Boys
This story is part fact and part fiction is first of all about Edward Watkins who was born in 1903 and placed by his unfortunate sex slave mother into the care of the brutal environment of the workhouse in Crumpsall Manchester at a time when the government did nothing either medical or financial for the poverty stricken.
He left the workhouse at the age of 16 and was generously assisted into a better life by two excellent people.
When walking along one of the main streets in Manchester, he came across the Royal Marines Recruiting Office and saw his first opportunity to become self-dependent, although to join at that stage he falsely added a year to his age.
During one of his initial training exercises, he met up with Samuel Baldwin, and they immediately recognised each other from their workhouse days.
The story is about their mutual and lasting friendship during their time travelling the world as marines during peacetime, creating harmony wherever they went, and later their traumatic wartime experiences.
It also covers their marriages, children and later peacetime activities.

The Star That Never Left Me
If you’ve ever had to keep going…
when nothing made sense
This story didn’t begin with a choice
It began with a moment that changed everything
This is not about success
It’s about growing up too early
Carrying what life placed on your shoulders
Losing what you thought would stay
And moving through moments…
that don’t make sense
Guided by something quiet
Something you find yourself
looking up to
The star that never left.
Mark Subaih is a husband, father, and entrepreneur
His journey has been shaped by responsibility, loss, and starting again
