HEBREWS 10:19-25;  PSALM 24; MARK 4:21-25.  Reading 1 Heb 10:19-25 Brothers and sisters:  Since through the Blood of Jesus  we have confidence of entrance into the sanctuary  by the new and living way, he opened for us through the veil,  that is, his flesh, and since we have “a great priest over the house of God,”  let us approach with a sincere heart and in absolute trust,  with our hearts sprinkled clean from an evil conscience  and our bodies washed in pure water. Let us hold unwaveringly to our confession that gives us hope,  for he who made the promise is trustworthy. We…

Watching the fireworks as it blasters tonight, Comes with lots of memories. Memories of the good, the bad and the ugly. Memories of lost love, lost hope and lost happiness. Memories of life’s sadness Piercing through these memories is like an arrow passing through the heart to tear the soul apart. I can fully remember the last time I saw the fireworks as it blasters You were right beside me, my lover And that was the first time I kissed your lips and slowly touched your hips And I told you this love is forever Like a drunk embraces his…

Holy Humour Holy hole Several children found a dead robin. Feeling that a proper burial should be performed, they secured a small box and some cotton batting, dug a hole in the back yard and made ready to dispose of the deceased. The minister’s 5-year-old son was chosen to say the prayer. And so with great dignity, he intoned, “Glory be to the Father…and unto the Son…and into the hole he goes.” Sunday Quote “It’s Sunday, therefore I am 100% motivated to do nothing today!” Sunday Joke Devil of a dad    Two boys were walking home from church after hearing a strong…

…Continued from last week. “Are you asking me out?” “Yes. We could go to the mall right after I see my friend.” “Do you mean like a date or something?” he asked a little disconnected from my enthusiasm “Are you not interested?” noticing his lack of excitement. “I just don’t think that wouldn’t be a good idea for now. I felt a sudden rush of heat down my spine. The sound of those words shattered my confidence. Was I too forward to have asked? I was embarrassed. “Do you have a girlfriend?” I continued. “No I don’t,” he replied “So…

By Dan Shepard Guest Writer Record global greenhouse gas emissions are putting the world on a path toward unacceptable warming, with serious implications for development prospects in Africa. “Limiting warming to 1.5° C is possible within the laws of chemistry and physics, but doing so would require unprecedented changes,” said Jim Skea, co-Chair of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Working Group III. But IPCC, the world’s foremost authority for assessing the science of climate change, says it is still possible to limit global temperature rise to 1.5° C—if, and only if, there are “rapid and far-reaching transitions in…

Christopher Partridge, Lancaster University When UNESCO announced that “the reggae music of Jamaica” had been added to its list of cultural products considered worthy of recognition, it was a reflection on the fact that reggae, which grew from its roots in the backstreets and dance halls of Jamaica, is more than just popular music, but an important social and political phenomenon. Jamaica’s application to the committee mentioned a number of artists from Bob Marley and Peter Tosh to Chronixx and the Zinc Fence Band. Some observers may be wondering whether such musicians are a good enough reason to include reggae…

The current weather in Nigeria isn’t particularly forgiving; it’s hot and humid – the perfect prerequisite for mesh fabric.  This weekend, introduce mesh into your overall look for a more pragmatic approach to style.

Maria Lohan, Queen’s University Belfast The right of a woman to control her fertility is at the very heart of feminist politics. It’s a cornerstone for women’s ability to secure economic freedom through the labour market rather than the man market, by determining when she should have a baby. Feminism, especially in its second wave since the 1970s, has been central to producing these changes. For example, in the early part of the 20th century, contraceptive practices were rooted in men’s culture and it was men who initiated discussions of birth control, determining the choice of methods and interacting with…
