Do we really need a new birth?
Why? Who says so?
How can we become “a new creation”?
Peter Mead takes us to Genes is where our problems began. Our hearts are wilfully sinful - so much so that we can be described as “dead”. Only a new birth like the one Jesus described to Nicodemus can provide the cure.
Peter Mead shows us something of the excitement and joy of becoming “a new creation”. Because of God’s gracious and generous heart, we can have true and abundant life: in Christ. Nothing could be more necessary or more wonderful than the gift God is offering you - don’t settle for less!

“This is a lovely and helpful book—a great introduction to those new to or exploring faith, and a refreshing encouragement to those who have been Christians for a while.” Ellidh Cook, Student Worker at All Souls Langham Place, London
“This tiny book conveys a huge reality: that Jesus came to raise spiritually dead people into abundant life! Peter Mead’s insights into the new birth that Jesus offers are both pastorally wise and profoundly helpful.” Philip Miller, Senior Pastor, The Moody Church, Chicago
“This lovely, heart-warming book opens up the foundational truth of the new birth. As with the rest of the Essentials series, it is short and simple, yet full of deep and delightful teaching.” Jonathan Thomas, author & broadcaster
“I found Peter Mead’s The New Birth contribution to the Essentials’ series most helpful, because it weaves together our story with the big story of Scripture through the lens of the work of the Holy Spirit. Taking as its anchor point Jesus’ encounter with Nicodemus, it wonderfully explains the theology and the felt experience of Christian conversion, and all along there are thrilling stories of how the Spirit transformed the likes of Spurgeon, Whitefield, C.S. Lewis, and modern men and women.”
