OGOD​

OGOD won a landmark case in South Africa in 2017. They have levelled the playing field for all religions in public schools.

Nuwe Hervorming Netwerk

Ons is ‘n netwerk van kreatiewe denkers wat vrylik gesels oor ons soeke na sin, mekaar met idees stimuleer en inspireer en hierdie lewe in die ‘nou’ as ‘n kosbaarheid uitleef. Hier gesels ons graag, maar ons luister ook graag na mekaar. Dit bring mee dat enigiemand sy of haar lewensvraagstukke in ‘n veilige omgewing kan deel.
