Where are the Christians?

As a family, we have been volunteering for a group who distribute food across Adelaide for about 6 months now. About 60–80 volunteers regularly donate their time to do food collections from the likes of department stores and bakeries, drive the distribution light trucks, and operate the food distribution hubs..

  • Paradise lost on half-wits

    Have you ever heard stories about someone receiving a brand-new car from their parents as a gift for getting their licence…only to total it in a wreck soon after?

  • The emasculation of love

    One gloriously sunny day on the gold coast during summer I noticed a busty, blonde girl canter across the street to avoid oncoming traffic. The strong message on the front of her tee shirt caught my attention. It read ‘LOVE IS THE ANSWER’.

  • Finding God in the clutter

    Life can get cluttered. Amidst dreams, responsibilities, relationships, lifestyles and opportunities, how do we distinguish what is God, and what is distraction?

  • The Gentle Man

  • What about the words?

    What comes to mind when you think of worship? It might be a large hall filled with people singing along to a contemporary song performed by a polished band of singers with guitars and keyboards and drums, with a big amped sound. Really pumped, lots of energy with lots of waving and dancing.

  • Saying goodbye to the Oils

    I have made no secret of my love of Midnight Oil- Australian rock band legends.

  • World Watch List of Christian persecution

    Open Doors USA, is an organization that tracks global religious maltreatment and it publishes the World Watch List of the countries where it is hardest to be a Christian around the world.

  • The Tricky Doctor

    Recently there was another case where someone masqueraded themselves as a doctor. A few years ago there was a fake doctor who worked at the Alice Springs Hospital in the Northern Territory. More recently another one on the Gold Coast.

  • Wait…. the Bible says what??

    Hopefully if you read a love letter I wrote to my husband you wouldn’t assume the words of affection were intended for you. This unnatural (and very awkward) method of interpreting a love letter, as if it was written directly to you, is however, how we sometimes read the Bible.

  • Vikings Lived in North America 500 Years Before Columbus

    Vikings were in the Americas 500 years before Columbus who, ‘In 1492, Columbus sailed the ocean blue.’

  • War on Europe’s Door – The End of the World as we know it?

    The unthinkable has happened: Russia is once again a threat to a global peace that has held strong since the Cold War ended in 1989.
