Re-defining 'good'

Re-defining 'good'

If you\'re anything like me, you associate \'good\' with anything that has to do with pleasure, choice, safety and comfort. On the other hand, you associate \'bad\' with anything pertaining to pain, suffering, discomfort or lack of choice..

  • Doubtful of the Devil

    Lately I have been thinking about the world we live in and how the devil fits into it, so I have some questions and my take on the reality of the Devil.

  • Dear Baby Girl

    You\'re a young girl, a teen, a child to some, but soon you will be continuing further on the strange and glorious journey of womanhood.

  • Reconsidering the Billy Graham rule

    When do rules help us, and when do they hinder us? It\'s a question that occurs to many people who are part of churches – and it\'s one that occurred to me when I was dealing with a dark time in my life.

  • Why fundraise money for ministry?

    As a worker in the Christian ministry field I love my job. I get to meet up with girls one-to-one, which I personally find really energising, and read God\'s Word with them. What a blessing! I get to co-lead a Bible study group and come up with ideas for sharing the gospel with others. This is my job! Jealous much?

  • Games that lead to Prison

    Every week there are young people who end up in youth prison, or \'youth justice residences\'. They range in age between 13 and 16, and the crimes they have committed are often serious and sometimes violent.

  • Is God found only at conferences?

    I love attending a good conference because I get to listen to world-class guest speakers and meet with fellow Christians. I get the buzz from a really good event too.

  • How to organise your life in one easy step

    Are you a 20-something working professional? Do you look at your commitments (including the necessary daily time out) and wonder how you\'ll be able to do everything?

  • Rugby: an Olympic history

    After a 92-year hiatus, rugby is finally making its return to the Olympic Games. While 1924 was the last time the sport was played at the games, Rio 2016 will mark the fifth time rugby has made an appearance.

  • The Christian way to think about feminism, environmentalism, pacifism and veganism

    Unfortunately, Christians are often known primarily for what we stand against, rather than what we stand for. When society looks upon a religious group which seems divided on big issues, the veracity and validity of that belief system is called into question.

  • Jesus monkey

    There was a zoologist by the name of Gordon R. Stephenson who presented a research paper to the University of Wisconsin titled, Cultural acquisition of a specific learned response among rhesus monkeys. What he found was quite interesting.

  • If today was your last day...

    It has been exciting entering the last few weeks of pregnancy. I have been packing my labour bag and getting ready for the arrival of my second baby. We don\'t know exactly when this bundle of joy will arrive.
