#3 Repent
Repenting is unnerving because it implies we need to admit our failings and change. That’s the glass half empty attitude most people have to the concept. Incidentally, built into the concept of repenting is the assumption that we can change. That’s the glass half full attitude too few of us have with respect to this concept.
What informs your beliefs on repenting?

View video: #2 The Salvation Equation
Many of us spend an inordinate amount of time thinking about salvation. As such, we’ve managed to boil salvation down to a neat little equation. For Christians, that is: grace + faith = salvation. So here we’re better off then we were before in that we know what is required to be saved, but what do these two elements – grace and faith – consist of.

Not a Sermon… Just a Thought No. 1
View video: Not a Sermon… Just a Thought No. 1
‘Not a Sermon… Just a Thought’ is a video series where we escape the trappings of traditional Sermons and discuss world issues in a more informal setting. More specifically, these videos are short, where Sermons are lengthy. The videos explore issues freely as and when they crop up, whereas Sermon topics are guided by whatever prescribed scripture reading one is working on. These videos are open to discussion with differing views encouraged, where Sermons often come across as prescribed.
Finally, the videos look to explain social, economic and political issues and see how Jesus’ teachings relate to our contemporary world.
