Levites, Priests, Thieves and the Samaritan
November 29th, 201112:52 PM ETJesus tells the story of the Good Samaritan to explain who a neighbour is and to analyse our troubled periods; pointing us to Him – true succour in our worst periods. The choice of a Samaritan in this story has always puzzled me, given that the Samaritan is a symbol of syncretism and error, even as the Levite symbolises the careful legalist ...an... -
Black Friday at the Gate of Samaria
November 25th, 201108:18 AM ETHistorically and culturally, many would object to the use of a negative term to refer to one of the most important shopping days in the year.

The Beauty in Delayed Miracles
November 19th, 201104:23 PM ETThere is beauty in delayed miracles. Reading from Ecclesiastes 3[11] He hath made every thing beautiful in his time: also he hath set the world in their heart, so that no man can find out the work that God maketh from the beginning to the end.

Embracing the Gift of Singleness by Abby
November 15th, 201104:25 AM ETIt does take guts to go completely against the grain by encouraging those uniquely gifted to serve God ... remaining single – without sounding like Mama Superior.

Are we too hard on Joel Osteen and the “New” Worshippers ?
November 01st, 201105:52 AM ETGod is seeking worshippers and worship in Spirit and in Truth – but man may have discovered more thrilling and satisfying expressions, and it is filling the worship auditorium. But wait – we may be a little too hard on the new worshippers who may simply be expressing the joys of salvation through their perhaps yet-to-be-tamed passions.&nb...
