I have a friend. Honest. Didn’t buy her or anything … Well, not for a lot … Well, nothing that I won’t be able to pay back … Eventually. Anyway, so this friend posted an FB update that is the basis of this post. My wife calls me a dreamer, to which I refer her […]
Read More Can We Be Too Idealistic?I recall an occasion where God expressed His grace to me in the most emotionally and mentally outrageous way possible. The sector that I work in is training, primarily training in the Welfare to Work area. So the role I play is being a tutor/facilitator for people who have been out of work for over […]
Read More Grace Expressions: The Class ExperienceI was thinking about my wife today. Yeah, I know it makes a change, but I was. As I thought about her, I thought about how much of a big deal she is to me and compared her to other things that I’m likely to be passionate about. I love me football, I love reading […]
Read More Big DealEver since I came across this Russ Taff dude with the stuff he did with the Gaither Vocal Band and realised there was so much more to him before and after his stint, I’ve loved the guy’s output. This one, however, came as a gem among all the precious stones of musical treasures in his […]
Read More DMCD Songs: God Only Knows – Russ TaffIn the last entry I started sharing a little bit about my story of understanding about money and its relation to what it is to be meek.

Read More Meekness and Humility – Real Keys to the Kingdom (Part Two)I’m not so sure if it’s power that corrupts. But evidently there is something about being a human that can be prone to corruption and power certainly helps. I was recalling my journey with money. Money didn’t do anything to me, but attitudes and influences about money certainly affected my approach to money. In my […]
Read More Meekness and Humility – Real Keys to the KingdomPutting words together is why I love blogging and from time to time I have a lot to write. Not on this occasion. I simply want to thank God for Jesus Christ. God has given me experiences, people and stuff and I’m grateful. These have been precious gifts and have enriched my life beyond words. […]
Read More Thank You Jesus – A Simple Blog EntryBeing a Christian is a fascinating walk of peace in a war torn world. The older I get, the more I value the peace that comes from above. I treasure it as something very different from versions of peace that come from alternate sources. For example there is the version of peace where two warring […]
Read More Where The Spirit Of The Lord Is … Conflict and PeaceBetween 2006 and 2009 I was relatively active in aspects of community life in areas of Stoke-on-Trent. The church fellowship to which I played a role in various aspects of community life whether supporting city-wide carnivals, running community centres, supporting community initiatives, running training sessions for the disadvantaged, assisting with luncheon clubs for the elderly, […]
Read More Where The Spirit Of The Lord Is – Darkness and LightNot long ago I shared an experience I had – an encounter indeed – with the Holy Spirit. This week again I’ve been challenged about what happens when the Spirit of the Lord moves.
