Welcome to the August issue of InterSections!
 

This InterSections you’re reading marks 15 years since the first issue of this little magazine came into being. Our first issue in August 2009 was edited under the watchful eyes of our founding editor, the much-loved Warren Holyoak (who went to be with the Lord in November 2011).

The editorial in that first issue contained this paragraph:
InterSections is intended to be a quarterly news journal to inform, inspire and unite Christians in Australia seeking to restore New Testament faith and practice. Typically, intersections are places of encounter. We want this journal to act like an intersection where Christians meet. By facilitating encounters, we hope this journal will encourage and help bring about growth amoung our readers.

 

By God’s grace, lots have changed since 2009. Our email subscriber list has increased. Our editorial team has grown (with this issue, we welcome Theo Gyau to our team). But our goals haven’t altered. This issue (our 61st) we wish to inform, encourage, and unite Christians who seek to replicate the faith and ethos of the earliest disciples of Jesus Christ. Thank you for joining us in that journey.


This issue has a loose theme around the Christian virtue of forgiveness. In our Feature, Steve Wilson explores some of the theological underpinnings of forgiveness. As Food for Thought, Alvin Tjipto delves into what forgiveness looks like in the Old and New Testaments.

 

For our ChurchScene, Bob Marks reflects on the 40-year growth of the 50-and-Over Retreats, first started in 1984. In our Race-Finishers series, Graeme Offer shares the life of his dad, Cliff Offer, an unassuming man with an interesting story. Our News items include updates on Camp Soul (NSW), a Ladies’ Refresher Day (QLD), and the Macquarie Lectureship (NSW).
Read it all and be encouraged! The InterSections team.
