David Westlake | make poverty personal: do Slum Survivor
http://davidwestlake.org/2014/10/14/make-poverty-personal-do-slum-survivor
Make poverty personal: do Slum Survivor. Discipleship is something that everyone in Christian leadership worries about, isn’t it? Asking ourselves that age old question of How do I get these people to look, smell, live, BE more like Jesus? I want to suggest that the best way to become more like Jesus is simply to do what he did. I know, right? Revelatory. I can’t believe no one’s thought. Anyway back to it. Can’t we do the same? Where would we start? How do we love and serve those who are in the poorest ...

David Westlake | Stand up to end sexual violence
http://davidwestlake.org/2014/09/15/stand-up-to-end-sexual-violence
Under Churches living integral mission. Stand up to end sexual violence. The dominant emotion of the dream was fear. Everyone was scared. That fear paralysed everyone into passivity. No one did anything, challenged anyone or tried to resist. Then one of the characters did resist. And the paralysing fear turned to a desperate determination to gain freedom. The dream continued as dreams do with that strange mix of gritty realism, absurdism and overwhelming emotion. And then I woke up. And then I woke up.

http://davidwestlake.org/2015/03/04/called-to-compassion-and-justice
Under Churches living integral mission. Called to Compassion and Justice? How often do we stop. Look around. And wish we had the answer. The answer that would give every child access to education, or would bring an end to human trafficking or the answer that would see the church helping whole communities to realise their God-given potential. Does it feel too vast? We’re inviting people from across the globe to join us at Call2Compassion and Justice. Durban, 11-15 May 2015. You must log in. What keeps me ...

David Westlake | Do you fancy a coffee?
http://davidwestlake.org/2014/03/27/do-you-fancy-a-coffee
Do you fancy a coffee? The nervous girl sidles over and suggests to the slow-on-the-uptake-been-hinted-at-for-AGES boy that hanging out might be good sometime. He deftly, confidently and wittily replies:. Yeaherrgreatummwellwhat do youummmdo you fancy a coffee? He promptly walks off, without waiting for an answer to high-five his mate who has been sniggering at his inept ways. The mate, being a little more astute turns him back to the girl. Yeah, a’wight, brill, yeah. And they live happily ever after.
