We are not any more of the world than Jesus is. We are invited, to live in this tension as believers. A lifestyle that embraces all cultures and confronts all cultures. What Jesus changes in us is how we see our fit in our culture and the politics of our culture.
All those who have put their trust in Jesus have been made new creation. God is renewing creation and He has started with you. This is how God sees us. And for us to step into this reality, we must have our minds renewed too. If we are to live our lives as new creation,...
This is the first Sunday of Lent. Lent is the 40 day period that started last Wednesday, Ash Wednesday, that lead up to Easter. Now, the “Lord” I’m referring to is the Holy Spirit, and wherever he is Lord, there is freedom. We can all draw close to him with the veil removed from our...
This is a psalm that would be sung by the nation of Israel during their times of thank-offerings. While making sacrifices of praise.

Jesus’ Birth was the entry of true hope into the world. It came with so much joy that even heaven could not contain it. A choir of angels is seen celebrating the advent of hope, true hope, on earth. Glory to God in the highest they sang. God honoured poor shepherds whom society considered of...
