A selection of recent talks include...
The pressure to conform has probably always been a feature of human experience. Our need to fit in with social groups means that we are very attuned to being the people we believe we are supposed to be in order to be accepted by the group. God sees through our best efforts to be someone we are not. God's Holy Spirit gently calls us to be the best expression of who we are.
In this passage from Matthew's gospel we hear about the period just after Jesus’ birth. It is a story of genocide and disruption, the likes of which most of us will never experience (thankfully)!
The nature of the violence reported here is not new and it is not old. In fact, it has been fairly constantly present throughout human history. Jesus is born into the midst of humanity’s inhumanity to call us to the fullness of humanity as we look to him.
For a better world, do life as he did life and treat others as he treated others… follow Jesus!
Write your goals in ink and your plans in pencil! God is well able to work all circumstances for good - even those things that are so far beyond what we could have possibly anticipated.
