Welcome to our blog. We are a group of people passionate about seeing God's kingdom come in all its fullness here on earth. We want to partner with God in this process and to imagine what every sphere of society could look like if renewed and reconceived to reflect the image of our maker. To this end we affirm the revelation and authority of the Bible and the inspiration of the Holy Spirit as breathed through history and available to us now. Our aim for this blog is to be a space to dream big, to think radically, to challenge orthodoxy, and to do it together.
We've named this collective endeavour Metanoia. It is derived from the Greek words meta, meaning change or beyond, and noos, meaning mind. It conveys a dual aim; to effect a change of mind regarding our world and our society; and to invite the One who is able to do exceedingly, abundantly more than we could ask or think, to take us beyond the limits of our human wisdom, towards His kingdom.
We invite you to join us.

The Great Financial Crisis: A Biblical Diagnosis
I came across this challenging article regarding the economic crisis and a Christian approach to finance. Food for thought...
Great article. Very thought provoking and working out how to apply this challenging message to our lives/community's lives. It is worth noting that the challenge is also exciting because it has the potential to build stronger communities.
Pete, if you have ideas for how this might be applied in our context, please let me know. We can discuss it in "Metanoia Live" on the 17.11 from Leeds!
