Lean startup churches

Churches face conditions of uncertainty every day, whether it comes from the changing demographics of the local neighbourhood to the different questions and topics that people ask about Christianity..

  • God silent today?

    Have you ever felt that the times you most desperately want to hear God’s voice are the times you’re met by the loudest silence?

  • Living righteously in an unrighteous world

    Something I’ve seen a lot in the media and in my email inbox over the last few months and years are petitions by Christians against laws and movies which approve ‘sin’ in the wider society.

  • When the burden doesn’t feel light

    One night a couple of years ago, I was talking to somebody I love very much about her journey away from faith.

  • Who is your neighbour?

    “I know about Jesus,” he says. “What do you know about Jesus?” I reply, careful in my approach to his statement.

  • Appreciating the mess and chaos in your life

    Before I became a mother, my life was clean, mess-free and "perfect". I had perfect routines and schedules for myself, I always had a top-notch clean home to come back to, and I had Excel spreadsheets detailing my exact plans for life.

  • Jacob and Rachel, the love story where God wins

    In my teenage years, I enjoyed reading the Genesis account of Jacob and Rachel.

  • Chelsea Close in on Title!

    With seven rounds remaining of the Premier League season, Chelsea are 7 points clear with a great run in as the season draws to a close.

  • The challenges of the AV ministry

    As volunteers in AV ministries we often feel like our ministries aren’t being successful. So, then what dose a successful AV ministry look like? Before we can answer this question, we must first answer the question of, what is a ministry? and how do we measure its success?

  • The moment I fell in love with Jesus

    As a little girl who had planned to be married by 22, I had no grasp of the concept that my desire to be married had very little to do with whether or not I would be.

  • When mum asks: ‘Why didn’t God heal me?’

    In early April, my mum will undergo an operation. Last year, she was diagnosed with a tumour in her right parotid gland.

  • WWJW: What would Jesus wear?

    As a young-adult Christian, I sometimes feel confused about what I’m supposed to wear.
