    Whole of Life

      Have you heard people talk about Work/Life balance? As if work isn’t part of life? As Christians, we might be tempted to talk about the Spiritual and non-Spiritual aspects of our lives. We’re being ‘spiritual’ when we worship in

    Why do you believe?

    “We believe …” we say when we recite the creed. But why do you believe these things? Some things we can prove, the evidence is overwhelming; but can you prove that someone loves you? And haven’t we all learned to
