I was thinking yesterday in a rare moment of clarity: The church is my family regardless of whether I agree with the way it happens. So the onus is on me to engage and to get to know people in a way that will enable me to trust them enough to actually attend a home [...]
Still, I may go to church after all
I am wondering if I am not throwing the baby out with the bathwater. If i allow myself to be ministered to in church and listen to the sermons with the intention of hearing God speak, and have my own private worship life as well, then there is a place for me to see whether [...]
Others are saying things about church which makes me think…
Other blogs are interesting things. You see people’s opinions and are exposed to other points of view.
I have been reading a blog about house churches
There was a link to another page about house churches. A lot of what they say makes sense to me. But when they start speaking about spiritual authority I feel my [...]
That same old hat again…
Sumi, I think you are right about the Spirit of God. God is in the Church and church is where people meet and commune to achieve God’s purposes. If a group of friends are together and they just happen to be having a braai, and somebody needs ministry, and somebody sees it and does it [...]
Church is old hat, I’d say…?
HI there all. Well I have decided to take the lunge and stop going to Sunday church services as a rule. I find them boring and unhelpful. I don’t want people I don’t know to pray for me during ministry time. I don’t want to lead worship for a group of people who don’t worship. [...]
EEG and all that
So Jethro went to his neurologist and the test was done. We had to give him a double dose of Coral Hydrate (?) to get him to be even dopy. He fought sleep but eventually we got the EEG done. The reading came back “normal” so we have to just watch him and try and [...]
A Blast from the past
It is nice when people who you have not seen or hard from contact you after a long time. I am always somehow in the position that I keep track of people or would like to keep track of them but somehow they don’t seem to have the same need. Then I perceive their attitude [...]
A LITTLE FREER TO BE ME?
Of course now that I am finding out who I am I realise that there were times when I knew more than I know now. Isn’t it sad that we should sacrifice parts of ourselves in order to try and become what other people should expect of us? One of the things that I instinctively [...]
Who is Jethro?
I mention Jethro here for the first time. He is my 9-year old son. He is disabled and has a completely unique chromosomal disorder. He is an angel. He doesn’t walk or talk but when he looks into your eyes you feel touched I will say more bout him soon
