Anyone who thinks we can still stick to that pipedream of sport and politics not mixing probably got a hernia or had kittens yesterday morning before and after the All Blacks match against Italy. The game itself wasn’t too flash. I think the general consensus is that it was lacklustre. Or the All Blacks were, anyway. So people not too excited about…

“Miracles and Faith” Mark 11:11-24 (Stephen Field) 37:10

8d ago37:10

37:10

When the Bible speaks of faith, it mainly speaks of trust God in hard times and being faithful in our relationship to God. However, there are some Bible verses that link faith to miracles. What kind of faith does it take to activate miracles from God? In this sermon, we explore this topic. To contact Rev. Stephen Field, email cbc@canterburybaptist.…

John MacDonald: Jetty restoration group's zero-interest pipedream 5:55

4d ago5:55

5:55

I don’t know if I’m going to make any friends in Governors Bay, especially with the people involved with the Governors Bay Jetty Restoration Trust. Because I think their call that the city council stop charging them interest on a loan it gave them to get the project across the line is, at best, unrealistic. They are dreaming. I remember the first t…

John MacDonald was joined by National’s Vanessa Weenink and Labour’s Duncan Webb this morning for Politics Friday.

They also discussed behaviour in Parliament, parti…

John MacDonald: Here's how to really make life difficult for gangs 5:02

5d ago5:02

5:02

Today’s the day when one of the most ridiculous laws we’ve ever seen in this country starts being enforced by the police. As of midnight last night, it is illegal for gang members to wear their patches out in public. Not only that - the Government also wants the cops to stop gang members hanging-out together in public. As far as I’m concerned, this…

John MacDonald: Cowboy hats and feathers? Yes. Bad behaviour? No 6:22

6d ago6:22

6:22

I can’t accuse NZ First MP Shane Jones of being pale, male, and stale. But he is male, and he is stale with these comments of his about the way some MPs are dressing in Parliament. I do agree with him, though, that some of the rules in Parliament need toughening up. This has all been stirred-up after the MPs did their haka in Parliament last week. …

Labour leader Chris Hipkins says he had no problem with Te Pati Māori's haka in the House last week, during the vote on ACT's Treaty Principle Bill. David Seymour, the National Party, and Shane Jones have written to Speaker Gerry Brownlee. They say the Speaker should oversee rule changes at Parliament in light of the disruption. Hipkins told John M…

John MacDonald: Don't point the finger at David Seymour for Treaty Principles mess 5:50

7d ago5:50

5:50

An absolute circus is one way to describe David Seymour’s Treaty Principles Bill. Or you could say that the thousands at Parliament today to protest against it is what democracy is all about. Either way, if you want to point a finger at anyone for creating this shambles, don’t point it at David Seymour. Point it at Prime Minister Christopher Luxon.…

John MacDonald: No mention of money doesn't make today's apology hollow 6:35

14d ago6:35

6:35

When it comes to apologies there are generally two types: a sincere apology and a hollow apology. And survivors of abuse in state or religious care are saying that the Prime Minister’s apology today for that abuse is hollow, because the Government isn’t saying anything today about redress or compensation. The Government’s position is that it needs …

If you’ve got solar panels on the roof, you’ll be loving the blue skies.

“Living By Faith” Hebrews 10:32-39; 2 Corinthians 5:6-10 (Stephen Field) 22:25

15d ago22:25

22:25

We can not control the era of history we are born into. We can not determine whether our time will be prosperous or challenging. Throughout history, people of faith have had to face invasion, captivity, drought, and depravation; while other people of faith have enjoyed times of prosperity, power, and comfort. The call of faith is to live in every s…

John MacDonald: Health and Safety is off the rails 5:24

You'll have your own way of describing this crazy situation where we’ve got KiwiRail telling the Christchurch City Council that it has to close a 1.5 kilometre stretch of cycleway for two years, because the cycleway needs some safety improvements. KiwiRail reckons the Heathcote Express cycleway, which is near a railway crossing, is so dangerous tha…

I think I’m going to trust my gut instinct more often. Because yesterday, I didn’t like the idea of it, but my gut was telling me that Donald Trump was going to win the presidential election.

Historic. Knife edge. Too close to call. That’s what they’re all saying about today’s presidential election in the States. What you never see though, splashed across the screens on CNN and Sky News and BBC, is “gut instinct”. My gut tells me that it’s going to be Donald Trump.

The plan to give “use of force” powers to the people running the Government’s new boot camps for young criminals is getting a bit of attention today. Or military academies as the Prime Minister was calling them this morning. The Children’s Minister has got this idea that, if you’re involved in running a boot camp, you should have the same powers as…

22d ago34:07

34:07

Is doubt the opposite of faith? In Scripture, people are both challenged and commended for their doubt. The key question is, “What direction is your doubt taking you in?” Today we explore the topic of the purpose and meaning of doubt. We see that unbelief, not doubt, is the opposite of faith. And we examine how faith and doubt are actually family m…

From today, the police don’t intend to respond to every mental health callout. But I don’t think we’re going to see any major difference. I’ll tell you why shortly,. And it’s based on an experience I had on Friday night. So if you’re worried about the police saying “not our department” if you call up, as of today, about someone having a mental heal…

I didn’t go to university and there’s a bit of a dad joke that I trot out about that now and again. I say that I’m a student of life, in no rush to graduate. So maybe I’m coming at this with a biased view of the world, but I agree with this academic at the University of Canterbury who is saying today that universities have just become factories tha…

27d ago5:23

5:23

If I say to you “30 kph speed limit area”, chances are you can think of one. I can think of one straight away - on the southern end of Colombo Street in Christchurch. You’re cruising along at 50 kph and then —bang— it drops down to 30. No schools on that stretch of Colombo. There’s a school on one of the side streets, but it goes down to 30 —and it…

When I heard that a campervan park is going to be up and running in central Christchurch, near Latimer Square —possibly in time for this summer— my first thought was that I’m glad I haven’t spent more than $500,000 buying an apartment around there. Not even the developer’s reassurances that campervan people aren’t “yahoo types” made me feel any mor…

“Come to Jesus and life will be easy and free of trouble!” Well, that’s what we might want to believe, but the truth is that faith in Jesus is not an escape from troubles. In fact, a common answer to prayer is for Jesus to assure us that He is with us in our troubles. Today, we explore some Bible verses that describe the fact the troubles in life w…

John MacDonald: How do you feel about parenting lessons in school? 6:27

“There for the grace of God goes I.” We generally say it when something bad and we know that it could just as easily happen to us, and anyone who is a parent should say that whenever they hear nightmare stories about kids being abused by their parents or caregivers. I say that not just as a by-stander looking on. I say that as someone with three ki…

I feel really uncomfortable about the idea of public sector bosses getting performance pay. Not that the Government is going to care too much about that, because it’s confirmed that, from the middle of next year, that’s what’s going to be happening. It’s unclear to me at this stage whether it’s going to mean the heads of all our government departme…

Sometimes you just have to resort to cliches, because there are times when there’s just no other way to say it. Or no better way to say it.

You can call me a nerd, if you want to. But I reckon there is nothing like the performance of walking down to your local polling booth on voting day and casting your vote.

Stories of faith in the Bible are often simplified to a narrative of a person experiencing surprising things and believing for crazy things in the face of great opposition.
