So here we are at the end of the month. IT has been quite a month. I’ve experienced so much over the month that it’s not possible to remember everything that has happened. During the month I’ve only been at Stoke church for one Sabbath where other Sabbaths have seen me in Newport, home and […]
Read More Seekers September – SummaryJust to say how happy I am and honoured to have made it to 200 posts this year before the last quarter begins. I am really grateful to God for getting the level of consistency to this level. I’ve been rather poorly lately, but have battled on despite everything to carry on with things like […]
Read More Role of the Teacher and Praise PerspectivesI have no idea what it is this year about the movies. In the first quarter there were a few things that got my interest, but really since then the choice of films on offer has been somewhat substandard.

If we are going to see God there has to be a love among us that goes beyond superficial greetings and barbecues and gets to the […]
Read More Seeking God TogetherBut even if you should suffer for righteousness’ sake, you will be blessed. Have no fear of them, nor be troubled, but in your hearts honour Christ the Lord as holy, always being prepared to make a defence to anyone who asks you for a reason for the hope that is in you; yet do […]
Read More Chop Off The Old BlockFollowing Jesus is both an intensely personal and private journey and a communal and corporate movement. There is the element wherein we develop Christ-like characteristics and have a direct responsibility to Christ for how we use what has been given to us to be like Him more.

Read More Seeking Together And AloneHear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. You shall love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. (Deuteronomy 6:4, 5) Life is about seeking after the One – one love, one truth, one hope, one joy. It is about discovering […]
