Three things to help you on the way …..
Got doubts?
Do you struggle with aspects of your faith that no longer seem right? Do you have significant doubts about God? Or about the Bible?
Do you wonder if science or modern culture have made christian belief irrelevant or unbelievable? Do you want to reconstruct your faith around reasonable beliefs you can hold with confidence and integrity?
There are reasonable answers to these doubts.
Wondering whether you should keep on believing?
Are you reconstructing your faith?
Are you stuck on hard questions like hell, evolution, or universalism?
Think about these questions from a sympathetic and evidence-based viewpoint.
Want to review & resolve?
The world is changing faster all the time, and we need to keep adapting. But how can belief adapt? What is not negotiable and what is flexible?
If you are a christian wanting to deepen your faith and understanding, and try to better follow Jesus in this postmodern world, there’s a lot here that will assist you.
Are you wondering how we should rightly understand Jesus? Do you think there’s more to him than sometimes taught?
Questioning how we should understand the Bible?
Strip away misconceptions and unjustified ideas. Check out what the experts say, based on evidence rather than dogma.
Or if you want quick answers, check out some Quick reads.
Looking for a challenge?
There’s no bigger challenge than following Jesus in bringing the kingdom of God on earth, working for justice and making all things new.
Consider the mission Jesus left his followers.
Do you want to revolutionise the church so it can carry out that mission?
Hopefully these pages will encourage you and challenge you.

How it went down (info for non-Aussies) The outgoing Australian government was ultra conservative and, it seemed to me, negligent, profligate and arguably corrupt. Australia was way behind the rest of the developed world in addressing climate change (because many in the government were sceptics), wasted large sums of taxpayer money on unjustified projects it hoped would lead to re-election, […] - Normal transmission will be resumed soon!
You may have noticed that I haven’t blogged lately. But I have been super busy. For the first time in my life I have become politically involved. I have come to the conclusion that the present government of Australia must be changed for the sake of our country. Australia is one of the worst countries in the world for climate action – basically, our government is doing the least it can to reduce carbon emissions and an awful lot to […] - Who’s afraid of faith deconstruction?
There’s a lot of talk about faith deconstruction. Is it dangerous, dishonest and leads to warmed over Buddhism? Or does it release people from toxic religion? - When it is hard to be a pacifist
The Ukraine conflict leads me to some conflicting thoughts about war, justice, non-violence and the Sermon on the Mount.
