WIN 3 Books by doing hardly a lot at all.

i've been wanting to do this for a while now. Three books up for grabs: [1] 'i, church' - my first book talking about how church is much more than simply that meeting at that place on that day with those people... for any of you who love Jesus but are having some difficulty with the idea and concept of church, this might be the book for you. [2] Free by Mark Scandrette - with [...]

Look what these university hooligans are up to now.

You'd hope that being the weekend these University protesters would give it a break. But no, last night they were definitely at it again i had just returned from performing an Improv show as part of the MamaCity Improv Festival [You should totally go by the way - i'm playing again on Monday but they're doing shows all weekend and it is good!] and i was hungry so my wife tbV and two friends and i [...]

What Bastille has to add to Universities shut down.

i was driving to a university campus to do a Peace Justice Witness shift and listening to the band Bastille on a cd in my car. And the walls kept tumbling down In the city that we love Great clouds roll over the hills Bringing darkness from above And i thought to myself, "Wow, that seems like familiar imagery. i wonder if this is the #FMF theme song?" But if you close your eyes, Does [...]

HAPPY ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY AFRIKKIN HASHTAG!!!!! Wow, how did that happen?

A Better ‘Better Ally’ description

How can i be a good ally to the people around me who are struggling with race issues? This is a question i have asked a lot. One of the things white people who join this conversation tend to do is expect people of colour to educate them on how not to be racist. So they have carried the burden of negative race vibes and now they must still do all the work of educating [...]

Hey dude, where’d the Pokémon Go?

So, did you catch 'em all? And if not, are you still trying to? And do you even remember what i'm talking about. Exactly three months to the day [was two days ago and so technically three months and two days ago] Pokémon GO had exploded on to the scene, more people were playing it than fighting on Facebook or taking pictures of their food on Instagram, and some idiot said, "It won't last!" Cue large [...]

Church in South Africa: Is this your burning issue?

South African Universities are burning and where is the church? Well, we are there. i actually spoke a little about this in my previous post, titled 'Where is the church?' As part of the PJW team in Cape Town we are there. Pastors joining in/leading marches in Joburg [including being shot in the face with rubber bullets as has happened to countless students and is as shocking and deplorable]. Friends who are part of the [...]
