Orlando certainly befits the term. Find out about his Kidz Hub initiative through the link. I had the huge benefit of making his acquaintance […]
Read More Exploring The HomeYesterday my first born child celebrated her ninth birthday. Deborah is very important to me because she’s my first born. At nine, she is no longer a fragile little baby needing to be fed and changed. In considering her development, I see someone who is more advanced than I was at her age, especially intellectualy. […]
Read More GrowingRecently I came across this interview with Dr. Martyn Lloyd Jones. I have heard of him, but don’t know all that much about him. I sat to watch this video and mused on how many similarities there are between the issues he challenges at the time of the interview – over 40 years ago – […]
Read More MLJ On The Problem With Modern ManFrom the outset let me say a positive word about entertaining. That which entertains can genuinely be a source of pleasure to the soul.

They’d be flying from one end to another and in their flying they looked to be having the time of their lives. So happy soaring in the wind. He wished he could fly like that.

Read More The Flying Elastic BandYou want to know how this started? Blame King Arthur Sido. It is really worth me mentioning what a huge admirer I am of his blog.
