Read More Just Some Jesus QuestionsLet me be honest with you. (I know that’s a surprise, but bear with me.)

For this very reason, make every […]

Learning to enjoy the diversity in the Body of Christ continues to be something I get stimulated by. As I’ve mentioned in highly recommending her blog, Kathleen produces articles that are not just for tickling the intellectual taste-buds, but actually lead […]

Being able to recite swathes of scripture has been a mark of super spirituality and people refer to being able to use scripture to defeat the enemy. Mention […]

There are times, however, when even the labour isn’t that onerous because of the delight I take in writing. The last entry looking at observations on the […]
