Street Surfer Bus Reaching a Community

No comments:


For the last couple of months I've been the chairperson of the Street Surfer Bus Committee. What a really awesome privilege that is.

The Street Surfer is a community bus in the western suburbs of Melbourne that has been going out into the streets mainly fridays and saturdays.

It has been amazing that in the last few months many new Christian volunteers from local churches have been starting to help on the bus.

New creative initiatives like these need to be thought of. Get a pad and pen and brainstorm some ideas, then work really hard and put some legs on the idea! (Don't do what I sometimes do... never give up too early if you believe you need to develop a new idea).

This summer, it's good to be 3!

I know many Christians that are passionate about the Holy Spirit. They are passionate to see him move in power in their lives and the life of their churches and communities.

I know of many followers who are sold out to exploring philosophical ideas, questioning in depth theology and are strong believers in improving/sustaining God's creation.

Other Christians have a deep passion for reaching the lost; those that don't know Jesus. They are sold out to growing his Kingdom and believe that if you don't believe in Jesus you won't get into heaven.

So which is better? Which beliefs are valid and are any invalid? Father, Son and Holy Spirit.

We need to be radically balanced in our view of the Trinity. One God: three persons of equal power and significance. All the above views are valid and need to be integrated forming a deep trinitarian view of God.

This summer it's good to be three.
