GIVE YOURSELF A BREAK

Questions about Christianity Summer's coming (so they say!)

This year, take a break - take yourself 'out of yourself' for a while. Spare a little of that special time to think 'out of the box'. No - not like a company meeting, but in life transforming 'higher' ways.

"Be transformed by the renewing of your mind", the "manual for life" tells us - with the slightly vague hint: "Set your minds on things that are above". But why? And how?

Start by reading the "manual for life".

How can you get a copy of this manual? It's widely available - it's called the Bible. If you suspend your disbelief long enough to ask simply and honestly "If you are there, God, please show yourself to me, while I read this Bible", you could find yourself on the adventure of a lifetime. Because the Bible is your doorway into another world.

As the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

You're welcome to drop in!
