BIBLE 101
A look at the Bible – what it is, and what it says.
BIBLE READING
Perhaps you've wanted for a long time to read through the Bible, or perhaps you 've never thought about it, but why not start? In this section you will find a personalised reading plan, with background notes on the various Bible Books. So why not accept the challenge and start today?
RAMBLINGS OF A STRANGER
Short textual doodles on life, love, and everything else. Each rambling is only two or three paragraphs, or less, intended to be a starting point for your own exploration of faith in daily living.
STORIES
Short stories about about life, love, and a lot in-between. The characters are fictional, the situations sometimes very familiar. Archangels, little boys, fugitives and rascals. Christmas stories, school days and a young man saying goodbye. Ordinary people, coming face to face with eternity. May their stories inspire you!
THE VOICES OF CHRISTMAS
What if the Christmas characters could tell us their experience of that night in their own words? What would they remember? What would they tell us?
THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD
The Biblical record of the birth of Jesus, arranged as one continuous narrative.
