MAKE ROOM FOR THOUGHT: Is faith unreasonable?
Students in Leiden here in The Netherlands run a week with talks about the meaning of life.

We all have the same starting point: we believe something about reality. The real question then is: which view makes more sense? Would like to hear what you think. leave a comment or ask a question. Stay safe!

COVID-19 Hope makes a difference
Almost everyone is concerned about the COVID-19 outbreak.
Many people responsibly take preventive measures. Others are in the middle of a crisis and find it difficult to deal with it. Most people are deeply concerned about their loved ones.

In this short blog (see here), Marilyn Adamson reflects on the reality of God and how this can make a difference in our lives. In the middle of our anxieties, there is hope!
How do you deal with anxiety? Leave a comment and I will be happy to reply within a week.
