A Few Ideas To Get You Started

  • At the well – Start by getting to know Jesus. 
    • Read the book of Mark with a loving lens.
    • Get a group of friends together, listen to and discuss a sermon or talk from the audio page.
    • Get your pastor to book a Manna and Mercy course at your local church.   
         
  • In the world – Start by getting to know people. 
    • Start by listening to others.  Get to really know those who do not hold power in your community.  Strive to understand rather than to prescribe solutions. 
    • Learn to be humble.  Accept that there are no simple and quick answers to the complex problems that we face.
    • Find creative ways to engage in a meaningful way with people who are not like you.  Work hard at this one, it’s easy to be unintentionally patronizing.
    • Get your company to do an Anti-Bias workshop. 
    • Go Green.  Search the web for ways to live sustainably.
    • Take a slow walk through the Apartheid Museum with friends and have a discussion afterwards.
    • Volunteer to help people less fortunate than yourself.
