Keep The Faith magazine Issue 62
Publisher's Description
Christmas 2010 will take place against the sobering backdrop of recession and Government spending cuts. Whilst this has caused fear and anxiety in some, those who explore the real meaning for the season will not lose heart, and will recognise it as a time to love, share and above all, have hope. This end-of-year edition of Keep The Faith explores various Christmas themes. Reverend Shosanya looks at how Christmas should inspire us to examine our relationships and re-connect with God, family and friends, and see our interconnectedness with the wider community. Stephen Brooks examines the real reason for Christmas, whilst Triumph Ayo-Isegun shares how families can enjoy their time together and extend the spirit of the season to others. There are also articles from Britain’s first Black Bishop, the Right Reverend Wilfred Woods, who shares how the African-Caribbean community can pass their cultural legacy onto their children; Rachel K Brown shares how women can withstand societal pressure and be the women God calls them to be, whilst Esther Williams reminds us to be thankful. And Jeremy Whittle shares how we can create more effective ministries to prisoners and ex-offenders. We also have an interview with Reverend Les Isaac, founder of Street Pastors, a nationwide Christian initiative that shares the love of God, gives hope and spreads peace. It’s an organisation that embodies everything that Christmas and Christianity is all about, and is one that should inspire us to do our bit to make the world a better place. And on this note, I wish you a blessed and peaceful Christmas. Marcia Dixon, Editor
