Same Sex Marriage

E-mail

So what about same sex marriage? How should we respond to the popular ideology surrounding same sex marriage? We certainly need to have an opinion on such a matter. But it ought to be an opinion that is shaped, not as a result of extreme fundamentalism, popular culture or red-necked rhetoric, but by a clear understanding of the scriptures. So what does God’s Word say about this practice? How should we respond as Jesus people to this hot potato that is currently being debated?

 

FH Cambodia

E-mail

Tuesday Nov 1 It was 5:45 am as our alarm went of and we clambered out of bed for a quick wash and hasty exit down to the car for breakfast. It's light by 5:30 am so most of the town is usually on the move. One thing I'll never get used to is the sanitation techniques. While toilets are the norm the non-use of toilet paper is something one never seems to get used to. Maybe that's something to share on the next blog. :-) At 7:30 am, after a superb Cambodian breakfast, headed to the FH Cambodian house for morning devotions with their staff.

 

Angkor Watt & Anlong Venh

E-mail

Monday Oct 31 Time is flying fast now in Cambodia. Sunday saw us attend church at New Life Fellowship in Phnom Penh. Leadership of NLF was a young man (Pastor Jesse) from USA. His father had started the church. Now there are over 1000 people in NLF with four contemporary services on a Sunday. It was great to see many Cambodians worshipping in Khmer together. The afternoon involved us packing, catching a flight to Phom Penh and settling into the Green Village Guest house.

 

 

Chab Dai

E-mail

Saturday Oct 29 Each day I get up I think how can this one top the last day. Well this day is up with the best. An early breakfast and tuk tuk ride through the streets of Phnom Penh took us to a ministry called Chab Dai. In Khmer, Chab Dai means 'joining hands.' It was started by Helen Sworn in Phnom Penh in 2005 with a vision to see Christians working together to end sexual abuse and trafficking. So what is human trafficking?

 

 

Peace Bridges

E-mail

On Friday our team moved on from the Beyond Disability project to observe a different BWAA ministry today. A van turned up at 8:00 am toad took us across Phnom Penh to the 'Peace Bridges' office. We were greeted by the Director (i.e. Mony) and he spent the next four hours telling us his story and the finer details of how the ministry of Peace Bridges came about.
