Coffee of life
Hello, Here in France, the cold is starting to arrive so I am happy to make you and serve you good « Cafés de vie ». If you live somewhere where it’s hot, that’s good too. It’s soon Christmas, so until then, I offer you bible meditations on the theme: « Hungry for Christ! » There are, unfortunately, those who are literally hungry and whom the Bible calls us to always take care of. It is also a call to be hungry for righteousness (Matthew 5:6) and never to be satisfied with injustices and inequalities. In the Covid-19 epidemic that we are going through and the victims and difficulties it causes, we are called to be hungry for Christ, to turn to him. Several governments in different countries have developed very oppressive and discriminatory measures (compulsory vaccination, health passes, confinement of the unvaccinated…). There is, here too, matter to be starved for justice! Jesus…
Music week
Hello, I wanted to present one last piece of music but, after listening again, I’m not sure of a phrase from the song compared to the Bible. It is in the hands of the Holy Spirit and I will present it to you possibly next time. I enjoyed sharing these different works with you. Jean-Francois Bongrand
Music week : Nina Hagen
Today, I am keen to talk about Franco-German friendship. It is the fruit of reconciliation. It is a chance. I believe that this friendship, always to be nurtured and deepened, is a source of blessing for the whole world. So we’re off to Germany to listen to « Punk Diva » Nina Hagen. After a spiritual and human journey, she gave her life to Jesus and was baptized in a Reformed Temple in 2009 in Schüttdorf. Following her baptism, she released the album « Personal Jesus » and the book « Confessions » in which she recounts her journey. We listen to the track “Just a little talk with Jesus” with country pop sounds. In picture, Adenauer and General de Gaulle attending a Te Deum in Reims Cathedral. Prophetic moment, symbol of the friendship between our two nations. Jean-François Bongrand
Music week : Delirious?
« You grace has found me just as I am » What sublime lyrics from the pop rock group Delirious? in their song: « Majesty (Here I am) », performed in different churches for praise. A God who does not judge us, who does not abandon us to our condition, to our weaknesses but who loves us with unconditional love. Even dying on the cross to offer us his infinite grace. Good listening, Jean-François Bongrand
