We who were commanded by Jesus to go into the whole World and preach the gospel to every nation, should see it as a privilege that God is bringing the nations to our doorsteps!

I have good news for you: Jesus really is gentle and lowly of heart and he has much more time for people who recognize they need him than those who think they have it all together. Jesus weeps over your pain, just like he did over his friends Mary and Martha. Read my article about his call to us to come to him:

Our Christmas cactus is out already, reminding us that Christ came to US to bring us peace. If you feel that the next few weeks till the holiday season looks insurmountable and overwhelming may Christ come to you again TODAY and give you joy. Jesus calls to us today just as he did 2000 years ago: Co...

The Apprentice is the movie which Trump, according to media reports, tried to prevent being released. In any normal country, if this movie in any way reflects what this man is like, then he would have been forced by his own political party to withdraw from the race. And, let's be honest, the movie DOES capture his media personality quite well, even if some of the details are fictionalised. The movie left me with the impression that the younger Trump was part of some kind of stereotypical somewhat shady New York business scene. It left me feeling chilled by the extent to which he appears in this film to be selfish and self absorbed. But nothing I have seen of the real Trump online, including long videos of him, does anything to counter the impression that this film merely reinforced. More on my blog....

In the rhetoric of political back and forth to what extent do we really listen? When we are trying to help others in suffering, do we try and make them change their minds about what they are feeling or do we simply LISTEN? Rogers said, "We think we listen, but very rarely do we listen with real understanding, true empathy. Yet listening, of this very special kind, is one of the most potent forces for change that I know."

We live in a shame culture now. In the media frenzy over politics and in our personal lives shaming and cancelling is rife. You can be rejected over even minor faults, which all contributes to relationship breakdown including divorce. Many now live alone, cut off from emotional support from friends and family. Many yearn for the kind of connections seen in the immensely popular sitcoms like Friends and Big Bang. They want to be part of a gang of supportive friends like that. Do you have such a group around you? Are you part of such a group around others? Or are you struggling through hard times alone and feeling overwhelmed, like a failure, and full of shame?
