GET UP & GO BREAKFAST - PROF DION FORSTER

How God deals with our sin: Dion helps us focus on the balance between three important aspects; loving grace, loving justice, and loving responsibility, in other words, what needs to be done, what God does, what we should do.

Prof Dion walks us through being a Disciple and the what it takes to make a Disciple.

We might not be able to do everything, or have every gift or ability. Buy, God places us among others to do our bit, and be blessed when others do their bit! Like Moses and Aaron!

This past Wednesday was Ash Wednesday, and lent has begun. Prof Dion talks about the ‘beginning of happiness’ (Jeremiah 17:5-10 and Psalm 1). The idea is that happiness is not a goal, but a ‘fruit’ and we gain happiness by being ‘rooted’ in good soil.

Prof Dion works through Mark 1:14-20, the calling of the disciples. He reflects on what it means when God calls us - the blessing, but also the courage to respond, and how to remain faithful when we might doubt. Jesus will never call us to do anything that he hasn't done Himself, or that he is not willing to do Himself.

“Jesus is infallibly devoted to us in spite of our inconsistent devotion to him..." Listen in as Prof Dion shares more on this very honest look at how God feels about us, versus how we might feel about Him.

Prof Dion walks us through Romans 12:12 We look at that combination of joy and hope, and how it surpasses reason, and circumstance, and is rooted in faith and faithfulness.

Prof Dion takes at look at what it means to be a Citizen of Heaven and how we should act here on Earth when it comes to our responsibility as SA citizens, especially in anticipation of next year's elections.

Prof Dion shares out of Matthew 20:1-16 (the parable of the generous landowner and the grumbling workers) and focusses on the theme that we have nothing to earn, and everything to gain in working for our generous Lord!
