"The tax code in America is ten times the size of the Bible with none of the Good News."
Vice President of the United States, Mike Pence.
κηρυσσων την βασιλειαν του θεου και διδασκων τα περι του κυριου ιησου χριστου μετα πασης παρρησιας ακωλυτως. The underlying meaning of this blog is this: the essential unity of Christians worldwide regardless of race, nationality, or religious denomination. There are real disagreements among us but there is a small remnant in every authentically Christian gathering. The Holy Spirit is leading His remnant into deeper understandings of the "meat" of the Gospel and not just the "milk."

Absence
I apologize for the recent lack of posting on this blog. I have been undergoing a series of eye surgeries. Posts will now return at least weekly.
Amazing Grace on the Kalimba
The kalimba is one of the thousands of variations of the mbira. The mbira is a member of the lamellophone family of instruments and consists of a flat board onto which are mounted metal tines of various lengths. The tines were originally made of bamboo but about the year 700 the bamboo was replaced by metal strips. The tips of the tines are plucked with the thumbs. The mbira is sometimes referred to as a “thumb piano.”
The mbira is very common in the Democratic Republic of Congo and among the Shona people of Zimbabwe.
