The Marks 15: Live at Peace with All

It’s fascinating to see responses to godly instructions. There is a type of thinking that says that each situation should be judged on its own merits and so whenpeople hear what sounds like a universal principle, they look for the exception with those scenarios that start with the phrase, ‘what happens if …’. We look […]

The Marks 11: Live in Harmony

There are glimpses of it in various expressions of life. How an organisation works well. How a team succeeds together. How those singers sing different notes that blend together so well.

What a Gift: My Peace

It’s quite remarkable to consider. There was no guarantee of an easy pathway. On the contrary, there is every likelihood of resistance and opposition. No promise of going through without harm.

Who Rules? Renewed Commitment

It is not accepted by everyone. It is vigorously resisted in some areas. It is benignly neglected in other areas. Aggression and apathy form twin attacks in the effort to diminish the opportunity to embrace the rule of God. These weapons are joined by efforts at misinformation, compromise and corruption. Efforts made as much from […]
