Il y a une histoire qui dit ceci :
Deux anges ont été envoyés sur terre avec des paniers. 🧺🧺
À ton avis, lequel des deux est revenu le premier ?
Ecoutez la conférence de Michel Kenmogne à l'Assemblée mondiale 2023 pour vérifier - et vous découvrirez comment le Psaume 145 peut nous motiver à prier avec louange et action de grâce. 🙌
😶 ¡El lenguaje puede tener más limitantes!
En la Asamblea Mundial 2023, Isabela Pineda (CECE Ecuador) y Marcio Lima (obrero de ABUB Brasil) nos enseñaron cómo podemos responder de forma creativa en nuestros campus. Con unas preguntas para reflexionar sobre el Salmo 139, nos presentan:
🎨 Unas obras de arte de los estudiantes de ABU Puerto Rico.
🖼 Unos cuadros de la artista brasileña Darli Nuza.
💬 Un poema de Marília Teres (ABUB Brasil).
🎙 Una canción de Brandon Molina (MUC El Salvador).
🎵 El ministerio de Peter Paris y su ministerio con su instrumento de dos cuerdas (FES Malasia).
Inspírate y da rienda suelta a tu espíritu artístico 👇
💖 ¿Te has sentido alguna vez profundamente conmovido por la música, la pintura, la poesía o la arquitectura?
En esta breve charla durante la Asamblea Mundial 2023, Marcio Lima, profesor de Arquitectura y Urbanismo en la Universidad de São Paulo, Brasil, nos ayuda a entender el por qué:
🎁 “Creemos que las artes son un don dado por Dios”
💞 “Las artes pueden ayudarnos a comprender y experimentar realidades que difícilmente podríamos alcanzar mediante conceptos o definiciones conceptuales”.
Aprende por qué las artes son tan importantes en la vida y en el ministerio y considera seis formas de fomentar las artes en tu contexto.
It’s one movement on one island, but it serves two countries with very different contexts – a religious culture with large Christian Unions in Northern Ireland and a more secular culture with smaller groups in the Republic of Ireland. Chris McBurney introduces us to the emergence of a united student ministry on the island and shares his passion for their common vision: students encountering Jesus.
On this Voices of IFES, learn about the context of Irish student ministry, how Chris became involved, and what hopes he has for CUI hosting IFES World Assembly in 2027. Find out how you can pray for him and CUI at a “pivotal point” in their movement.
📖😕 Algunas palabras de la Biblia pueden resultar inquietantes...
Josué Olmedo, co-director de la Iniciativa Logos y Cosmos de IFES en América Latina, repasó de forma honesta los salmos 105 y 106 en su charla de la Asamblea General de 2023.
Josué reconoce que contienen versículos que nos pueden resultar “incómodos y polémicos” y pregunta: “¿A qué nos invitan estas extrañas historias y afirmaciones?”
Nos sugiere que: “Recordemos que la fidelidad incesante y transformadora de Dios no es domesticable”.
Escucha “La fidelidad incesante de Dios” para ver cómo la fidelidad constante, transformadora e inmensurable de Dios nos debe conducir al arrepentimiento y a la fe.
Have you heard Vinoth Ramachandra’s thought-provoking talk about justice at World Assembly 2023?
💥 “Early Christian theologians, the Church Fathers, challenged the absolutist understandings of wealth and property that undergirded Roman law.
They taught that if I have food in my house that I don't need for my survival, but my next-door neighbour is starving, then the food in my house belongs to him and his family, and not to me. If he breaks in and takes that food, he is not stealing. It is I who commit theft – as long as I refuse to share it with them. Because the right to life trumps the right to private property.
My friends, this is not Marxism. This is traditional Christian theology which we have forgotten.”
Hear him unpack the biblical vision for justice and what that means for us. Listen to the full talk in this podcast.
Tim Adams, IFES General Secretary, talks about the “dual reality” of IFES – a strong global fellowship that is often very vulnerable at the local level. How can we serve with hope, joy, and confidence when we feel weak and powerless?
Tim offers encouragement by reminding us of verses in Scripture, sharing about his visits to national movements, and reflecting on the Apostle Paul’s prayer for power in Ephesians 1. He reassures us: God’s power at work in us is “in another league!”
Global Fellowship Day was one expression of IFES movements uniting to share and pray together. Don’t miss the next one: World Student Day on 18 October 2024. Find out more 👉 https://ifesworld.org/wsd
