There are some who inform me eternity would be boring. Such thoughts make me chuckle. After all, how would we ever know? We live a finite number of years and most of that time is spent ageing involving a process of reaching a brief peak of physical and mental capacity before deteriorating and eventually returning […]
Read More An Eternal Perspective: When Time Is No MoreIt occurred to me. The more I dwelt on it, the more powerful it became. Jesus Christ is beautiful. Preaching captives set free, prisoners liberated, broken hearted healed. That is so beautiful. Healing sick, bringing sight to the blind, hearing to the deaf, touching the leper, restoring prostitutes. That is so beautiful. Consistency and quality […]
Read More An Awe Inspiring Experience: Captivated By Jesus’ BeautySilence. I know some who are frightened of silence. The stillness. The lack of activity. The absence of noise. It freaks some people out. They don’t feel of any use to anyone unless they are doing something, saying something! Some church gatherings appear dubious of being quiet.

Read More A Simple Response To Those Who Mock ChristianityThe thing about getting to know someone is that to truly do it, you can’t stay on the sidelines. Biographies are a good example. You can read some and it is clear the writer collected the material from dustbins and the scraps of forgotten tabloid reject articles. They know the subject as well as your […]
Read More A Complete Immersion: A Few Drops Won’t DoHonouring life. From its conception to its completion there is something about life that is worth honouring. When talking about this issue, some talk about quality of life. While that aspect is important, it shouldn’t be the first thing to be considered. It should first be established that it is worth honouring life on its […]
