    Ours are uncertain times, like those into which Jesus came. But God in Christ invested for the long haul and pours Himself into something risky. So therefore can we.

    These are uncertain times. And in uncertain times uncertain people do irrational things, destructive things. People who are drifting, people who have no anchor, people who have no center - in uncertain times, such people do things which destroy. The pages of the calendar are turning toward ...read more

    Introduction I profess that I DO NOT like to watch the TV show, “Survivor”. I admit the concept, though with I’m sure some exaggerations, is pretty cool!

    Leviticus is probably the most "boring" book of the Bible (even Jesus doesn’t quote from it), but in it’s pages are some of the powerful stories of forgiveness you’ll read.

    (This is the 2nd in a series dedicated to the most boring Scriptures in the Bible. At least… the things many people regard as boring) For some people, there’s nothing more boring than the tedious, almost unending regulations that God gave His people in Leviticus. In fact, when most people attempt ...read more

    Christmas is often thought of as a time of peace. But what sort of peace does Jesus really bring?

    One of the favourite sayings on mass-produced Christmas cards is “peace on earth and goodwill toward men”. Christmas is the season of peace and goodwill, it is said. It is the time of year to put aside our conflicts and disagreements and to – well to be nice to each other temporarily. A famous ...read more

    The question why does God allow suffering and evil is one of the most significant questions of this or any other time.

    Why does God allow suffering and evil? Why are babies born blind? Why is a promising life snuffed out as it is on the rise?
