It has been too long since I have mentioned great blogs that I have come across. My writing continues to be spurred on by the good work that is going on elsewhere. This evening I read a blog about seven keys to body life by the ever excellent Eric Carpenter. There have been a number of […]
Read More Keys to Body LifeWe love this couple. By we, I mean Authrine and I. We love this couple. They are so beautiful together. They are treasures that are now not so hidden and we have the blessed opportunity to uncover more of the riches within them as we engage in conversation. It’s only fair that we divulge ourselves […]
Read More We Are SharingIt makes me chuckle sometimes considering the journey I have taken where prayer is concerned. Back in my childhood days I had very little time for prayer. Even when I got baptised in my teens my prayer life didn’t dramatically change. To look back on that now and see where I have travelled since then […]
Read More Something About Praying TogetherI suppose different things appeal to people in different ways. I have had the privilege of being in different church environments. Some prefer a very rigid structure and order. Some are more flexible. Some make a big deal of monologue preaching as the central point of the gathering. Some make a big deal of the […]
Read More When A Teacher Lays A FoundationThere are lots of things exciting to witness in my life. In the past I was excited about going to secondary school for the first time. Hitting the sixth form was an exciting opportunity to experience. Going on a plane for the first time was exciting. Starting University and as a result leaving home was […]

That outline does not include a lesson plan and session notes, neither does it describe classroom resources required and assessment methods. It does underline, however, the importance of […]
Read More Titus Talk 02 – Titus the TeacherHe must hold firmly to the trustworthy message as it has been taught, so that he can encourage others by sound doctrine and refute those who oppose it. (Titus 1:9 NIV) Paul’s letter to Titus has been referred to as a pastoral letter. What’s interesting in the opening chapter of this letter is how straight […]
Read More Titus Talk 01 – Titus the TroubleshooterThere’s this guy at the gathering, I love him. He’s got children and grandchildren. He’s been around the block more than twice. He knows what’s what. What I love about him is how he doesn’t impose himself on anyone. He is not imposing and he doesn’t demand your attention. It’s exactly because of that humility […]
Read More Sit and LearnYeah, it’s football related, but it’s still good. So it’s the European Championship in France. Belgium, apparently ranked number two in the world, take on Italy who are not widely fancied because of their lack of big names. Belgium, meanwhile, have a number of very good players. As the game progresses, though, the Italians have […]
