Messenger is driven by a clear agenda to help the members we serve grow their faith in Christ.

I’m sending out the digital copy of this edition a little earlier than usual this week, due to the timely nature of the theme. With January not yet over, it seems just the right moment to address the matter at hand, a critical issue we’re all facing at present. I attempt to address head-on, in a balanced but, I trust, disarming way. The moment the reader picks up a copy, they face a personal spiritual challenge and appeal.

I wonder if you’d be kindly willing to forward this edition to your ministry team, with your critical endorsement, to give them a ‘heads up’ of this week’s Messenger agenda. I hope you’ll be able to encourage them to somehow pivot and connect with the theme – all for the sake of mission!

Every edition of Messenger is purpose-driven to inform, educate, and inspire. I hope you’ll find this week’s offering exceeds expectation. As they say, 'The proof of the pudding is in the eating.'
