You’ve probably heard about, “A Passion for Life.” In their own words from their homepage:
A Passion for Life is a nationwide initiative that is drawing together local evangelical churches to plan a fantastic variety of missional initiatives culminating in Easter 2010. Our passion is to see numerous people of all ages and backgrounds in our country reborn to glorify God.
What I want to flag up is some of their video resources on vimeo. There’s (at the time of writing) about 15 apologetics style videos answering such questions as, “How can Christians be so sure what they believe is true?” and “Isn’t Christianity just a psychological crutch?”
Here’s one from the big Don himself, answering the important question, “How can God alow evil and suffering in the world?”
The great thing about Vimeo is you can legitimately download a decent quality version of all the videos to use in any events you might hold. I seriously recommend checking the rest out.
I never thought I’d see the day, but it is here. I want to recommend a Christian TV station. Clayton TV is an internet based channel that is free to watch and has a wealth of good content.
One of the things I love about the internet is the way that people give away their content for free.
Mars Hill and the Resurgence have been leading the way in this in terms of quantity, but the best in terms of quality must been John Piper. Piper gives away everything… everything! Even his books! You can download them as PDF and print them off to read. Brilliant.
So we know you all have smart phones (others have cruddberries). And we know that you love to read theproGnosis. The only thing is it can be a bit cumbersome on the old walk about phone
Hence the new mobile site. It’s easy to use and designed specifically for your handset! Check out these screen shot, taken on an iPhone (landscape).
It’s the old evangelist’s call isn’t it, questioning the crowd to ask if they know Jesus as their personal saviour. Or the Christian who’s just met someone on the street, given them a tract and asks them If they have a personal relationship with God.
Every 6 months, just like clockwork. Panic, anxiety, second guessing yourself. Will it? Wont it?
The clocks are due to move an hour. Great, you get a longer sleep. But will your phone automatically adjust for you or do you have to do it yourself? How many face this terrifying question every 6 months. Get it wrong and your either embarrassingly early or embarrassingly late.
Turns out mine did…and I did. Had I not spent a restless, constantly checking my phone clock against my watch I’d have been very late. Still, at least I had an extra hours sleep to catch up with all the waking up in an anxious sweat.
So what? What has the clocks changing got to do with anything? It has to do with God. He doesn’t change.
My recent post on the impeccability of Christ (and the subsequent Christology lectures) led me to remembering a post that was written on the old proGnosis blog.
It’s been left unaltered from its original, rather scrappy state but still I think conveys a certain thought. Enjoy.
CURRENTLY UPDATING ARCHIVES We're currently putting all our old posts from our old site onto this site. It's a long and arduous process so it will take a while. So far we have all of 2008's previous posts and, thanks to Lewis (I think), we have March to May 2007 on as well. (26.01.2009)
Well here’s your chance. I stumbled across the, “A Passion for Life” Vimeo page earlier where there are loads of videos giving apologetics-esq responses to common questions. Here’s one from a certain D.Carson:
SAINT VENANTIUS HONORIUS CLEMENTIANUS FORTUNATUS A poet and hymn writer, this saint with a long name lived around 530-610 AD. He was born in Italy and grew up during a time of conquest. He was well educated reading especially indulging himself in many secular poets as well as Christian ones. He wandered around northern Europe in his [...]
I hate to be the bearer of bad news.. but Christmas is coming…fast! To be honest, we’ve nearly finished our present buying and planning the church program, so I’m pretty chilled. But, so often, as I’m buying gifts, running church events, eating mince pies and thinking about new books, I forget to see Christmas for the [...]
