You do you

I’m a part of the generation that talks about self-care on a daily basis. If not explicitly, we are subconsciously marketed the concept of “self-care” every single day..

  • A prophecy rooted Christmas

    One of the most radically awesome events in the history of mankind is celebrated this exciting season. The mind blowing embodiment of transcendence, the divine, holy and spotless God of the Universe, literally enters the world as an unborn baby.

  • Who is our marketing target

  • The Grand Finale

    There was a small artist who had lived in a society that did not value art. He had a long journey to make and did not want to go. But he could not get out of it. When would the journey begin and end? Where would it take him? He had no idea.

  • When God came down - The Hebrides revival

    Church history is filled with spectacular moments when God seemed to come down and shake territories with his presence. These moments have stood as an eternal testimony that God is indeed longing to dwell among his people.

  • Against the flow

    Having recommitted my life to Christ a few years ago, I went on a small pilgrimage for a home church. When I had settled down with the family-oriented, Bible-based Covenant Family of churches, it was understood and suggested that new members take a discipleship foundations class to understand the core beliefs of the church. The programme was offered in two parts, each spanning six months per module (1 and 2).

  • Trusting in times of transition

    ‘Turn and face the strange,’ is David Bowie’s challenge in his 1971 song ‘Changes’.

  • Content vs consent

    Last month, I inadvertently started a war on my Facebook wall by posting something that seemed so obvious to me that I was shocked that anyone could see it differently: the rape of Hagar and Bathsheba by Abram and David respectively. The impassioned debate that ensued opened my eyes to a lot of perspectives and nuances that I had never considered before.

  • How to survive the holiday season

    The holiday season often inspires feelings of warmth, joy, and belonging. Nevertheless, for some people, this time of the year could evoke feelings of loneliness, stress, and anxiety. Despite long-held belief and media coverage, the suicide rate is actually lower during the holiday season.

  • Rethinking Christmas

    Domestic violence incidents spike at Christmas. In fact, all kinds of violence escalate at this time of the year. Brawls from heavy drinking, drug-taking and the tensions in families, keep police, ambulance and hospitals excessively busy.

  • Young people and older - staying at home

    Several recent Australian surveys have shown that young people are choosing to stay at home longer than their parents ever did; or they return back home at some time to save money. It seems the figures have not changed much over 15 years.

  • The nature of Good and Evil

    Last week I wrote on the nature of Wisdom (as far as I could see it) and I liked a lot of the ideas I figured out. I thought, then, that I would look at the ideas of ‘Good’ and ‘Evil’ this week and see what else I could come up with. Of course, I won’t be doing this alone; I will invoke the help of Milton, Tolkien and Dante to assist me as I discuss the ideas of the good/evil dichotomy.
