Hóé dien ’n hedendaagse gesin God? Watter maniere is daar om gesinstyd met God opwindend te maak, om lofsang en aanbidding ’n fees te maak en om saam uit te reik na ander op maniere wat lekker én lewensveranderend is? Hoe inisieer ’n enkelouer dit? Of hoe motiveer jy dit wanneer jou huweliksmaat nie daarvoor te vinde is nie? Hoe doen jy dit wanneer jy tieners én kleuters in die huis het? En hoe doen jy dit sodat hulle dit wéér wil doen uit eie vrye wil?

Met hierdie boek wil Louise Viljoen gesinne toerus om God binne gesinsverband te dien. Sy gesels oor die uitdagings wat gesinne ondervind, soos bv. die gebrek aan Bybelkennis en tyd asook die druk onder portuurgroepe. Sy gee praktiese wenke oor hoe om gesinstyd met God spesiaal te maak en stel opwindende aktiwiteite voor vir die hele gesin. Daarna volg 52 oordenkings wat gesinne weekliks kan deurwerk.

Geniet die heerlike reis om as gesin by Hom in te trek. Kom ons laat gesinstyd met God herleef.

Nelson Mandela brought the poetry of Ingrid Jonker to the attention of South Africa and the wider world when he read her poem "Die kind" (The Child) at the opening of South Africa's first democratic parliament on May 24, 1994. Though Jonker was already a significant figure in South African literary circles, Mandela's reference contributed to a revival of interest in Jonker and her work that continues to this day.
Viljoen's biography illuminates the brief and dramatic life of Jonker, who created a literary oeuvre -- as searing in its intensity as it is brief -- before taking her own life at the age of thirty-one. Jonker wrote against a background of escalating apartheid laws, violent repression of black political activists, and the banning of the African National Congress and the Pan Africanist Congress. Viljoen tells the story of Ingrid Jonker in the political and cultural context of her time, provides sensitive insights into her poetry, and considers the reasons for the enduring fascination with her life and death.
Her writings, her association with bohemian literary circles, and her identification with the oppressed brought her into conflict with her father, a politician in the white ruling party, and with other authority figures from her Afrikaner background. Her life and work demonstrate the difficulty and importance of artistic endeavor in a place of terrible conflict.

The Postcolonial Low Countries is the first book to bring together critical and comparative approaches to the emergent field of neerlandophone postcolonial studies. The collection of essays ranges across the cultures and literatures of the Netherlands and Belgium and establishes an encounter between postcolonial theoretical discourses from both within and without the region. Each one of the contributions puts under pressure the definitive concepts of postcolonial studies in its more conventional anglophone or francophone formation, as well as perceptions of the Low Countries, Belgium and the Netherlands, as lying outside or to the side of the postcolonial domain. In the Low Countries, local and regional issues concerning multiculturalism and colonial belatedness have raised important questions about the possible grounds on which postcolonial critical concepts might be not only translated but also generated afresh, to suit these paradoxically new contexts. As The Postcolonial Low Countries incisively demonstrates, the Low Countries demand a careful rearticulation of such postcolonial 'readymades' as hybridity, accommodation and creolization. Gathering together contributions from both internationally renowned scholars and newly established researchers in the field, The Postcolonial Low Countries maps previously underexplored national and transnational literary critical trajectories. The book challenges in boundary shifting ways current readings of the so-described multicultural and postcolonial Netherlands and Belgium.
