George Georgiou speaks an amazing word to anyone who falls in the category of unmarried. How do we get the best out of it? What does God have in store for it?
By Sarah-Kate Edworthy – I’m a perfectionist at heart. If I’m going to do something, I have to do it well. No, let me rephrase… I have to do it extremely well. If it’s not pretty close on 100%, I don’t really see the point. But who’s applying all this unnecessary pressure, you may ask?…
By Paballo Thekiso – Last week we published part 1 of Diversity In Christ. You can read it here. Today, Paballo continues with part 2. Let me start by confessing. Back in 2012 when God first placed this burden of diversity in churches on my heart, I didn’t get it. During what we thought was…
By Paballo Thekiso – September is heritage month and South Africans across the spectrum are encouraged to celebrate their culture and the diversity of their beliefs and traditions, in the wider context of a nation that belongs to all its people. It is in this month that you will hear phrases such as ons gaan nou braai and Chisa Nyama almost…
By Collins Zimba – Imagine this Early afternoon, maybe some time shortly after midday. It’s The Champ, he’s walking through the streets of Jerusalem, listening to the latest motivational podcast. There’s a leper who needs healing, he swerves like a rugby player about to be tackled. There’s a lady with a bleeding problem, he picks…
By Terran Williams – ‘My dad was a ghost in my home.’ These are the haunting words of a young father I chatted to a while ago. I met him as we watched our little kids at a restaurant’s play-section. He was on holiday and it was my day off. My wife Julie was drinking a…
By Terran Williams – One of the most shocking facts us working parents of younger kids have to face is this: for most days of the year, we have just three hours with them. That’s an eighth of every 24 hours. And that’s if you’re lucky. Time-sharing your kids with an ex, or traveling everyday to and from…
By Duncan Earley – It’s honestly one of the best compliments I have ever received. It was a Sunday morning, getting ready for our first gathering of the day, and one of our worship leaders looked over at me and announced: ‘Dunx! Jack of all trades, master of some’ with a wink. I don’t think…
By Katie Campbell – Last week we published part 1 of Bid Us Rise From Slavery. Incase you missed it, you can read it here. Part 2. Part of my research involved studying abolitionist poetry as a method for convincing people of the injustice of slavery, and I want to read one of the poems…
By Katie Campbell – As someone who has made my whole career about studying history (and teaching it to others), I have encountered interesting reactions from others when I tell them what I do. Usually the response involves, ‘I always thought history was really boring in school, but now I wish I knew more about…
By Angie Grobbelaar – Tween identity? Is that even a thing? You’d better believe it is. Yes, I may be three months into this ‘tween’ or ‘preteen’ phase of parenting but I have come to realize my 10 year old daughter is moulding, forming, creating her very own sense of who she is… thankfully using…
By Simone Gregor – Dear 2016, Only a few days left before you leave us – some may say goodbye to you with mixed emotions. For some, you meant confusion, chaos and struggle. For others, you brought new beginnings and joy. The world isn’t likely to forget you in a hurry: Brexit, the victory of…
By Holly Perrett – Holly Perrett is a passionate lover of Jesus, a member of God First City Church, and a student at the University of Pretoria. In this post Holly reflects on the #FeesMustFall movement, and talks about her own perspective on the protests and her role therein. We hope that this post will…
By Paballo Thekiso – Last week Paballo Thekiso started our journey of understanding lobola, and asked the question if culture can co-exist alongside Christianity especially with the Lobola process? This week he invites us into his own personal lobola journey… Both my wife and I are from the Batswana ethnic group which hail mostly from the North…
Paballo Thekiso – A few years ago, one of my close friends Thabo* proposed to his girlfriend Mpho*, and she said yes. They had been dating for a few years and all of us who knew them were delighted for them. We all thought that this was the beginning of an amazing journey for the…
By Angie Grobbelaar – People hear the call to serve, but wait… its for Kids Church? Their hearts start to beat super fast, sweat breaks out and the nearest exit looks good right about then. Why is that? I reckon it is because people think you need to be LOUD, brightly dressed, always smiling with…
By Tarryn Hodgson – As we head into the final quarter of the year, things can easily start to feel overwhelming, but this doesn’t need to be the case. Here are six tips for getting organised and ending the year strong. Plan, prioritise and prepare Be a step ahead in your thinking by planning for…
By Duncan Earley – I have actually become so de-sensitized to this moment: ‘Oh you’re married… Sho, but you’re so young?’ In a world where getting married later on (late 20’s to 30’s) is now the norm, it often feels like being young and married places a massive target on your chest. Being a 24…
By Angie Grobbelaar – I remember that wonderful day when my child was finally able to stay in kids church on her own without me. Oh it was glorious! I got to go to church with my husband, was able to sing and clap for ALL the songs, listen to a whole message and even…
