You're Not All There - #6428
if you will open up to the rest of the family, you're going to be really rich! Let different Christians challenge you, and balance you, complete you. There is no family member in God's family that you don't need and who doesn't need you, because we're just not all there.

So Many Flavors - #6278
You're on God's side when you're against whatever divides His body. It's not all vanilla. Its lots of flavors. It's all ice cream; but it's lots of flavors, and that's what counts. We're all the church. So, celebrate the variety in God's family. There are so many flavors.

Christendom is over. Post-Christian evangelism: presentation by Alan Hirsch

Book review: Foreign to Familiar - A guide to Understanding Hot- and Cold-Climate Cultures, by Sarah Lanier
Weather shapes our different national cultures more than we realise. A cross-cultural worker with wide experience, Lanier explains the vital differences between hot- and cold-climate cultures. This is not just of passing interest, because it dramatically affects how we communicate the gospel within different cultures. In a cold-climate culture, social life is lived primarily within the home. In a hot-climate culture, community life and relationships are conducted outside. Hot-climate cultures are far more relational, much less task-oriented.

Different - a Christian perspective
We are each given different gifts. All are given to us from God and no gift is worth more or less in terms of the body of Christ.
