Servants of Christ are in the transformation business. This kind of
transformation will only happen if we refuse to be seduced by false
idols like success, money, fame and security - to be the church we
were called to be. We need to take ownership of the problems around
us and work with people who are suffering in order to find
solutions and offer lasting change. Here, Patrick travels the globe
to find examples. In Bolivia he reports how Christian backing for
education projects is allowing families to find a way out of
poverty. In London, XLP is mentoring young people to turn aside
from violence. In Los Angeles a new future is being offered to gang
girls. In high security prisons in the UK and US the Spirit is
turning lives around. In Belfast's Shankill Road area a group of
elderly ladies is cooking meals for men who sit all day in local
pubs . . . the list is extensive, and inspiring. The common element
is that in all circumstances: Christ is offering hope. Be inspired
afresh, that when it comes to what Jesus can do there really is no
ceiling to hope.
