Bio of Jesus Christ

Born in 5 BC at Bethlehem, lived in the Roman province of Judea. Was crucified in 33 AD as King of the Jews, then rose from the dead. He fulfilled the prophecies of the Old Testament and established the New Covenant in His body and blood between God and humankind. He ascended to His Father, then sent His Spirit to His followers. Legacy: the Church. He is reputed to be the most famous person who has ever lived and the Son of God.

Articles on Biblical themes

  • Factual reflection on the Bible (as opposed to a spiritual and personal reflection)
  • God: source of what is true and what is right
  • Discussion of new ideas on the facts of God’s embodied wisdom and action in the world
Author: Clare in 2022

I feel that openness to all different types of Christians is the way forward in an increasingly secular world.

Sharing ideas is a way of being human in what is becoming quite a sterile environment. We’re not all the same, but that can be a good thing; we don’t all think the same, but that can lead to conversation.

Exchanging insights can cause us to grow, expand our horizons and feel the joy of discovering something new in ourselves and in others.

Christians Coming Together

This website is about Christians coming together from all types of churches: Catholic, Anglican and Evangelical. Churches have a variety of different styles of worship; a new style can re-energize faith. We all share the same Bible and follow the same Lord. Authenticity and sincerity is the key.

Images for this website

Most of the images of this website are photos taken by me in the North of Chile where I lived on the edge of the Atacama Desert at Coquimbo between 1991 and 2001. It was a place where skies were usually blue and the Andes mountains usually in sight.
