Focusing on Mission, Ministry & Leadership, Wellness and NZ Trends. Every day we come across material that's helpful to those ministering in the Church. Some of it is vital, some of it is just plain interesting. This blog will aim to include a wide mix of resource material: links to other blogs and sites, helpful quotes, anecdotal material you can use, the names of books worth reading and more.

Lent is round the corner
Of course, no one has problems thinking of things to give up for Lent, or things to do that are out of their comfort zone and that make a difference to someone else. Or do they?
Anyway, if you're feeling short on ideas, here's Dave Gibbons offering what he (rather oddly) calls A Hardcore Top Ten for Lent 2011.
Some obvious things on the list, like giving up chocolate or watching TV or taking a retreat from social media, but also some slightly off the wall suggestions - giving up sex, stopping wearing make-up, turning your car into a car-pool, not locking your doors against the outside world.
Check out his list and his reasons. One of these might just be the thing for you!
