Wimbledon Likes

I am enjoying Wimbledon.

I like the determintation, the will to do well, the will to win.

I like the simplicity of one against one, or two against two.

I like the crowds, enchanted by the spectacle.

I like the Weather, able to delay every game, even ones on centre court, if only by forty minutes.

Most of all though, I like these things epitomised. Epitomised in Murray. I hope he wins.

Love Wins?

I discovered this clip on youtube today.

It is an attempt to explain the gospel. It engages, it teaches, it compels. But does it tell the whole story?

Rob Bell suggests otherwise. He hints that the good news is better than that.

So, did Jesus pay a price for us? Do we need to accept him into our lives? Is the good news just for us?

These are the kind of questions Bell deals with in Love Wins. I am not sure I agree with all he implies, but I do think his work is a challenging reminder of God's love for us.

Ethics

Recently I have been thinking about ethics. I came up with a Personal Ethical Code based on 1 Corinthians 13:

God comes first

Love

Be patient

Be kind

Do not be jealous

Do not be boastful

Do not be proud

Lift others above yourself

Be humble

Stay calm

Forgive others

Do not laugh at others' misfortune

Be honest

Look after others

Trust others

Be hopeful

Persevere
