It`s the can of worms- we are opening it!
Welcome to Openthecan.zw where we explore the humanity in Christianity,which not only rhymes (we love that here!), but has been a long overdue conversation. In our little corner of the pulpit we answer the unsolicited question : What's it really like to be a Christian?
Join us, let's figure it out together!
Chisingaperi chinoshura! What a project it was to manoeuvre. Tinokutendai because it's easier than saying bye... Welcome to our resource center; feel free to revisit pawadira.

I am what I am So it is what it is
Who am I? But backwards. Could I be you? Would I be true? Oh rue!

Hardest Oan
It must be miserable to not be vulnerable about being miserable. To stop yourself from discovering that feeling can be freeing. Forlorn. Alone. Let us feel again what it means to feel❤️

The Birds and the Baes 2
Part 2
Because love exists my dear, it would be such a shame to reserve it for but a dame. To claim it not existing is to deny the reality of God. After all is said and done: Am I patient?Am I kind? Slow to anger? Yet above all, do I mercilessly hold on to the truth that I AM WORTHY OF LOVE REGARDLESS yet that is never something I should take for granted. How much so does He love the world? His only Son He gave.

Pluck a daisy, leave it to chance. They love me, they love me not, they love me, they love me not. He loves me, it matters not!

Umjolo will... 2
Part 2
ALT TITLE: WE PROPOSE TO PROPOSE
The curious thing about affection is how unpredictable it feels. Existing in spaces where you know you could be challenged to minister to a stranger or exercise patience explaining yet again what happened in a manger, speaking life into feeling seems the truest danger. Be bold!
Love thoroughly. Unequivocally. It will end inevitably. Whether by circumstance, by choice, by death. Therefore, Love for today. Entirely.

Umjolo will...
Part 1*
Are you ready for Sunday School kids? Where we learn about how love is God and God is love? OK...Here we go. A is for Abstinence, B is for Boaz, C is for can't-really-talk-about-it-because-you're-not-thirty-yet, D is for Don't-forget-C! Hmmm...I see.

Vision 2020 Part 2
You're running an empire- say a mega-church. You're expecting to leave this holy legacy for your children who we'll call Hophni and Phinehas for the sake of progress. You also happen to be taking care of a boy whose mum left him at your house; you sensed 'beer after beer' vibes but she refused and you left it because that's really not your business. Anyway, long story short , the boy takes over! As far as the vision you had set out for...well, let's just say your eyes grew dim and your boys made the situation all the more grim...

Vision 2020
We're completing an obstacle course, you and I. You cut your hands and start bleeding profusely. I knew this would be a dangerous course and you expect me to help you as I am your teammate and we both saw this coming. I refuse. You're baffled as to why I'd be this unwilling to help given everything we knew about this course we have been doing together. You've lost a LOT of blood now; weak, tired, weary. Close to your breaking point now , blood spilled all around us, you ask what it would have taken for me to help you. To this I reply : Unless I can see the scars on your hands, surely I have no proof that you were cut!

But is it for God?
I can give you my heart and soul but I probably will press mute when you call. I'll give you the world as long as its watching. Can you see me now? Tanatswa and Rutendo are hosting a show and tell in our little corner of the pulpit today. Make sure you have got on your Sunday best!

'Chi-Guy'
A man in a certain country get's a job hook-up from his brother Andrew. He finds out fringe benefits include free wine, loaves of bread and the occasional fish here and there; seems pretty neat. The problem is it's a `Power in Peace` gig and that's not usually the man's portion but he figured he'd get the hang of it. I hate to *cut* the story short but Kuziyakwashe is ready in our little corner of the pulpit. He'll be talking to us about the easy road and how to do things nechekuseri (backdoor).
As for that man I'll let you know once I *ear* more. I think I forgot the part about a *sword* or keeping score?

My 'U Up?' texts
As for the ten virgins I can't help but wonder: If their encounter happened during the day, would 5 still have stood out?
Joined by Bethel in our little corner of the pulpit we are exploring the experience of waning faith.
When we meet God only when it's dark and hours are odd, one wonders what intimacy will spark and if it can sustain us when we are no longer cold?
