Amen for BISC. Let's each help launch more of these kinds of initiatives. Chris you are a great example of walking with others finding their way in a new country and building bridges. Thanks.

Great Article, Its a shame that so many christians want to bible bash before ever getting to know their neighbours. What has the church been teaching to make so many of us like that. BISC (www.bisc.org.uk) is another example of how to build loving bridges into other faith groups that bears fruit. Yes some come to know Jesus while others do not. But they all will have spent time with Christians who demonstrated the way Jesus loves people. Hopefully when they return to their homelands, many of which are closed to the Gospel, they will take a very positive experience of christianity back with them and in time the doors may be opened. Let us always love like Jesus.  Not like the Pharisees!

engaging

I have been journeying with John in his engagement in fulfilling the SOIL commitment. This led me to look back at the site and notice that it has been inactive for quite some time. I assume we have all been engaged in the current calling God has placed before each one of us. For the past four years Linda and I have been engaged in starting a shelter for runaway/homeless youth in crisis: https://www.yeshelter.org/with a couple of forays to Kenya and…See More

Song: End of my journey

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UwSzJcBogkU&feature=youtube_gdata_playerLoved this song, gives the example of what the cross and message of Christs life. Total surrender to ego, to be resurected to live in and from spirit. Following and surrendering to Christ.To be who we are and what we have come at this time in life to do on the earth. Only through the holy spirit can that be revealed.See More

Sarah Richardson commented on Dave Dowding's blog post Holiness as loving your neighbour
"Holiness often isn't thought of in that way these days but that is so true. In what ways am I living a life that is different from the general way of the world, a life that is separated from the 'normal' way of living?"
