  3. A Christian attitude in these precarious times

    Today, on ‘From Guestwriters’, we published a reader’s question about the Christian stance in these chaotic times.

    In any case, recent months have certainly brought us plenty of issues that could cause concern. In Ukraine, Russia’s inhumane conflict with its southern neighbour continues unabated, whilst the Russian government spares neither person nor property. So we see ‘Gog’ advancing southwards, whilst the rest of the world hears about it, watches, but does very little to prevent this advance.

    It was not only Europe that had to contend with a great many natural disasters this summer. There was the severe drought, but this was offset by violent hailstorms and torrential downpours. Many countries were ravaged by storms, landslides and mudslides. Climate change meant we had to experience its dangerous consequences first-hand. Melting glaciers made their power felt and seen with great force.

    Those who read the Bible regularly are certainly not surprised by any of these events. The Bible warns us that difficult times are to come, with an increase in natural disasters and more violence amongst people. These days, even minors do not shy away from stabbing others or shooting them dead.

    In the face of all these events, we must ask ourselves how we should observe all this and whether or not we should respond. We are convinced that we cannot stand by and watch silently from the sidelines. As followers of Christ, we must live by his teachings and, out of love for our fellow human beings, we are called upon to take active action.

    As Christians, we cannot simply stand by and watch all these events unfold. We must not only make our voices heard, but also roll up our sleeves and get stuck in.

    As children of God, we can trust that Jehovah is willing to give us gifts to help others. We must therefore make practical use of the gifts we receive from God. It is not only within our own church community that we should allow these spiritual gifts to flourish. We must open ourselves up to God’s gifts in such a way that we may grow in wisdom and spiritual strength. We must understand why God has given us these gifts. It is not so that we should do nothing with them. In the same way, we must have the courage to reach out and speak to people about our faith and our hopes for the future.

    The basis for putting these gifts into practice lies in understanding their purpose. They are a manifestation of the qualities with which God is prepared to endow people. They enable us, as believers, to overcome our own uncertainty and fear and to maintain a biblical perspective on the future. In this way, we are offered opportunities to serve God and to help further build up the body of Christ and bring it to maturity.

    We must share the gifts we receive through God’s Spirit with others, both within the church community and beyond, with love.

    In all expressions of spiritual gifts, priority must be given to love. The apostle Paul explains that even extraordinary gifts — speaking in tongues, prophecy, knowledge and faith — mean nothing without love. We must be aware that spiritual power, separated from love, becomes spiritual arrogance.

    The question posed: How should Christians use their spiritual gifts today?

  4. Beauty, Drought, and Lavender: The Best Garden Yet in a Summer of Contrasts

    Summer 2026 has been one of the most remarkable seasons in memory. Two heatwaves, an almost rainless July, an extended hosepipe ban, and daily images of wildfires sweeping across Europe. Closer to home, both Slievenamon and the Comeragh Mountains burned, a sobering reminder that climate change is no longer a distant headline. It has arrived on our own doorstep. And yet, despite the extremes, this has been the finest gardening summer I've ever had. Gallbladder surgery at the end of July […]
