"What on earth is Antikipper?" you ask.
Have you ever had the feeling that there is pressure coming from every direction? You feel as though you started as a well rounded person but have been squished flatter and flatter- and ended up like a kipper, flat! "A kipper has no backbone, is flat and looks both ways at once!" wrote Gina Ingram & Jean Harris in Delivering Good Youth Work
With the outside pressures that we all face it is difficult to become and remain the well rounded person God wants us to be. Antikipper is here to explore those pressures and provide some notes against the flow.
