Upon Jesus' Shoulders

Who should we pick on this week? There are so many to choose from. Shaq is getting heat over dissing Bryant. Does Brittany have her kids this week? Lindsay is in and out of treatment. Tiger is down for the count. J-Lo evidently got into a brawl at some retail store. We have a fascination with the private lives of celebrities. It's not that we particularly care about them (after all, we don't really know them)....

At War With Myself

In a certain church, a woman was leading the congregation in the prayer of confession. She called the people to confess, reminding them of the sin within their hearts, and then all joined in reading the prayer of confession. She paused for the silent confession, and she kept pausing for a good long while. So long, in fact, that the people began to rustle as they waited for the next part of the service...

A Marriage Made in Heaven

In 1967, a psychologist named Kinch reported a rather bizarre experiment conducted by university psychology graduate students. These males were part of what they considered to be the "in" crowd on campus. They moved in the right circles, dressed the right way, and went to the right places for nightlife parties.

There is this feeling that games must be justified, that there must be a moral or a lesson. Heaven forbid if children think of the church as a building where play takes place....

Eternal Life - for the Childish, or the Childlike?

Here in England we're now well into the wedding season, in which many young couples will follow the age old tradition of plighting their troth. Some of them will do so here in Pulham St. Mary church, and several more here in our benefice in South Norfolk. Although our country has the highest divorce rate in the whole of Europe and is second only....

Connected to Jesus

Object: a small belt you can fix around the right leg of one child and the left leg of the other child
Good morning, boys and girls. Do you like to do things with someone else? (let them answer) Do you wash the dishes together, help each other clean your room, take the dog for a walk together, or feed your pets together? (let them answer) I brought with me a little belt....
