BREAKING NEWS!
JAn 17, 2019, Zimbabwe: John Masuku, a seasoned and senior radio broadcaster, producer and journalist in Zimbabwe, and a member of international community of ROM – Renewing Our Minds initiative, sent us today the following statement issued by prominent media organizations in Zimbabwe. Since the Zimbabwean Government has shut down schools, banks. roads, transportation, media, newspapers and the Internet across the country, and since it is hard to know how much information can be circulated in and out of Zimbabwe at this time, we are using our platform to join many friends across the world who are this time doing whatever they can to make sure the news of the Zimbabwe shutdown is known internationally. So, friends, read the Media Alliance of Zimbabwe (MAZ) Statement on the Internet Shutdown, and spread the word:

Something to Think About
Jesus is in the business of saving people. Paul says: “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord,’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved”, and adds: “Nothing can separate us from the love of Christ” Romans 8:38.39. Could it be that simple? But rather than being a source of great joy, radical simplicity of the Gospel offends most people. The saving prescription is so simple that even a child will embrace it, and an elderly person whose mental faculties are already weak will find in it his or her ultimate comfort. It states: “Everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord will be saved.” Romans 10:9.13.
