WELCOME TO CCM.CO.ZA


We hope that this site will offer you what the tagline says: Inspiration and resources for your walk of faith as a follower of Jesus.
And if you are not (yet) a follower of Jesus, may this bring you closer to Him.

NEW CONTENT!!

BIBLE 101
The main units take a look at the Bible – what it is, what it says, and how to use it. The section also contains lists and tables relative to the study units, our course "INTERPRETING THE BIBLE - A Practical Guide for Followers of Jesus", and various other printable resources.

BIBLE READING
Perhaps you've wanted for a long time to read through the Bible, or perhaps you've never thought about it, but why not start? In this section you will find a personalised reading plan, with background notes on the various Bible Books. So why not accept the challenge and start today?
 
RAMBLINGS OF A STRANGER
Short textual doodles on life, love, and everything else. Each rambling is only two or three paragraphs, or less, intended to be a starting point for your own exploration of faith in daily living.
 
STORIES
Short stories about about life, love, and a lot in-between. The characters are fictional, the situations sometimes very familiar. Archangels, little boys, fugitives and rascals. Christmas stories, school days and a young man saying goodbye. Ordinary people, coming face to face with eternity. May their stories inspire you!
 
THE VOICES OF CHRISTMAS
What if the Christmas characters could tell us their experience of that night in their own words? What would they remember? What would they tell us?
 
THE GREATEST STORY EVER TOLD
The Biblical record of the birth of Jesus, arranged as one continuous narrative.
 

NEW CONTENT


A lot has happened during the last few weeks, mostly behind the scenes (editing, polishing, etc), but here is some new content:

BIBLE READING:
Notes for Genesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy rewritten and expanded to the same format as the New Testament notes, with links to printable versions.

BIBLE 101:
Added Unit 10: The Prophets of the Bible. Still some polishing to be done, but the info is there!
Part of the unit is available HERE as "Portraits of the Prophets".

BIBLE STUDY:
As part of another project I am compiling Bible Study notes on the books of 1 and 2 Samuel. It will be added to the site as a new "Bible Studies" section when completed, but for now the introduction and a few chapters are available HERE, if you want to use it.

Note that extra content is no longer on different pages, but is included as a hidden pop-up text box, looking like this:  
X TEXT BOX

This is what a pop-up text box with extra content looks like.
 
Close it with the "X" in the top right corner of the box.
 
Beware: If you just click the "Back" button of your browser, you might end up on the page before the one you were reading, or another place in the current page - what happens depends on the quirks of various browsers. I'll try to fix it someday, but for now remember to use the "X"!
 Click on it to open the extra content in a pop-up box.

Please come back often, and journey along.
