On the image of Jesus we present to the world...
Wednesday, 20th December 2006

Dear friends,

Thanks everyone for the great conversations going on in our forums at the moment. I must confess I'm a little surprised at how the discussions seems to have picked up in recent days given how distracted everyone seems to be with Christmas this year.

I'm sure both Peregrinus and the Cloistered Quartet add enough fuel today to keep the conversations bubbling along at a nice pace. In what ways will you be celebrating Christmas this year? When we endeavour to inject Christ back into Christmas, what particular image of Jesus are we endeavouring to inject back?

Have a great day wherever you happen to be ... in life, and in our world.

Celebrating Christmas... Peregrinus, in his usual style, really does present a different twist to the usual sort of reflections and homilies we can expect at this time of the year. "Christians should not be on the sidelines at Christmas, looking prim. We should show the world how to party!" [more]

On the image of Jesus we present to the world... Our cloistered quartet are engrossed in a vigorous discussion today about what sort of image of Jesus we present to the world at Christmas, or any other time. [more]
