Sharing a drink with a dodgy woman

 

 

 

 

Jesus the True Vine

God has always wanted to be with mankind. Curiously, most of these encounters with Him are somehow associated with a tree. There is this strange but beautiful theme all through scripture - serving as a constant invitation to come to the Tree of Life. Join us this Sunday morning as we explore this theme together.

Wandering in Darkness: Trusting without Understanding

Lonely, scarred, frustrated, hungry - these are all words describing various South Africans at the moment. Drawing on a rich biblical tradition, we'll explore how to navigate these uncertain times.

The gardens of our lives

The Surprise of the Resurrection

Johan Erasmus speaks on how the Resurrection was a surprise in the first age and reflects on the Resurrection for our contemporary age over Passover.

The Cross Foolishness; Stumbling-block or Wisdom

The cross and resurrection of Christ are some of the central happenings of human history.  They are very difficult events to ignore, even though they happened in a relatively unimportant country just about 2000 years ago.  The events around Jerusalem and Golgotha offer very controversial and for some offensive commentary on the human condition and a radical solution to our existential questions and brokenness.  What is the crucifixion-resurrection: A stumbling block; foolishness or the wisdom of God.  This talk investigates a Christian perspective on these questions.

You Cannot Do This Alone

Stanley Hauerwas once claimed that Saints cannot exist without a community, as they require, like all of us, nurturance by a people who, while often unfaithful, preserve the habits necessary to learn the story of God.” 

This challenges our individualistic culture, but the reality is that Jesus does not only save you from your sins, but weaves you into a new community. Hence, following Jesus is something you cannot do alone.

Christmas and the Subversive Baby King

"Enemy-occupied territory---that is what this world is. Christianity is the story of how the rightful king has landed, you might say landed in disguise, and is calling us to take part in a great campaign of sabotage."

 

 

- C.S. Lewis

 

 

Is the season of Advent just a cozy, sentimental period before Christmas? Or is it a time of spiritual revolution? 

The role of the Church in fulfilling the great commission

Hoekom sukkel ek om die evangelie te deel

Dit wil voorkom of daar baie Christene is wat sukkel om oor hul geloof te praat. J.I Packer vra tereg: "If God is in control of everything, can Christians sit back and not bother to evangelize?" Chris de Beer reflekteer hoe ons dit kan regkry om deel te neem aan die dissipline van evangelisasie.
