Vision 2024
As the new year unfolds, let us strive to give without acknowledgement, serve without ego and seek to be first by being last. Nathan Andrews suggests our quest for 2024 can very well be anonymity, if you please.
Happy Fathers’ Day!
George Mattackal shares a powerful testimony with Jacob Cheriyan about the awesome grace of God he experienced in bringing up his nine children alone in the last ten years. He says it’s easy to talk of the sovereignty of God, but it’s a different story when it plays out in your own life.
George Mattackal is President of CGI’s Asia Pacific Global Delivery Centers of Excellence, where he oversees global delivery capabilities across Asia Pacific.
Have I Spoken about Jesus today?
Taking a cue from Apostle Paul’s response to the news that prison and hardships await him, Rajiv Chelladurai says that only when we come to a place of nothingness in our lives we are ready to take on the God-assigned tasks for us.
Happy Labour Day!
Dr Sunil Chandy gives a clarion call to us on 1st of May to be empathetic, compassionate and fair in all our dealings with those who toil hard to make our lives easy and complete.
The Third Space
By looking for their identity in their sexuality, the Trans are actually seeking the Imago Dei lost. So we need to create a place where they find their Creator and feel at home in His presence, suggests Nathan Andrews
Lay Off & Life
Thousands have lost their jobs due to layoffs, which not only has financial consequences but also takes a toll on one’s personal life. Lynette Johnson shares her insights on the impact of layoffs on identity in her article ‘Layoff & Life’.
Passing the Baton | Force Majeure
Succession planning is no new age concept. But we need to be intentional in the matter, like St.Paul, who mentored and groomed Timothy, Silas, Titus and Onesimus, says Nathan Andrews in his book Force Majeure.
The author, a management consultant, has shared organisational lessons gleaned from the Book of Acts, and they spell sure-fire success for you, be it in your company, church, or even in informal support groups.
Speaking Truth to Power | Force Majeure
Nathan called the bluff of King David; fearless Daniel was not overawed by King Nebuchadnezzar into silence; Paul took on the mighty Festus. We can take a leaf out of their books to speak truth to power with empathy, humility, clarity and courage, says Nathan Andrews in his recent book, Force Majeure.
Lystra & Derbe
Given the present celeb culture, it’s hard for even the best among us to resist basking in the limelight of either the media or social media! Nathan Andrews cites Paul and Barnabas’ quick disclaimer at Lystra and urges us not to fall prey to clickbait! It’s vital that we separate the chaff from the truth.
Hire for Attitude
Taking a cue from the way the 11 disciples of Jesus chose Matthias over Nicodemus or Joseph of Arimathea, Nathan Andrews suggests the right attitude of candidate wins over job requirement when it comes to hiring. For, after all, skills can be learnt on the job, he says.
