Planting of the Church at Dindigul

-


​​Singles from thirteen churches in Tamilnadu had gathered together on the 19th and 20th of September for a retreat and also for the much awaited planting of the Dindigul church. There was an attendance of about 200 and they had a wonderful time of fellowship, learning, encouraging and discipling groups were formed after every message where they spoke openly about their sins and took help from one another. Many decided to repent and serve God in their respective churches. On the final day the singles had a great time of worship and the Dindigul mission team was introduced and prayed for. The team consists of six radical disciples of whom four are singles and a young couple. This long awaited planting of the church at Dindigul has been possible by the prayers and hard work of many disciples over the past few years. Please keep the mission team in your prayers.

You just need to forgive, right? - Andrew Kitchen

SPIRITUAL RENOVATION Fresh thoughts about following Jesus You need to forgive and move on. Right? Or maybe it’s actually very wrong. Someone has said terrible things to you, accused you, treated you harshly, possibly spiritually abused you in a church setting and now you are being told to forgive your perpetrator, because, … you know, forgiveness is what Christians are supposed to do. This scenario has played out on more than one occasion . It’s common! So how to deal with it when it comes your way? The first thing to recognize is that this kind of language is very simply an extension of the original abuse. It is a simple bid to excise the perpetrator from any repentance or restorative action. It’s a lot easier to trundle out these seven words than to perform any serious introspection. Hey, if it works five times out of ten it’s worth it. If it works one time out of ten it’s still worth it. Avoiding accountability for actions has a big payoff. But, holy smokes… the carnage. The damage.
