When I read scripture, I cannot help but be intrigued by the maverick character. Two such dudes that stand out in this category are Elijah and John D. Baptist. (I like how he’s the only geezer who has his own gimmick in the Bible, to the extent that it made sense to have that as […]
Read More MaverickAs a follower of Jesus, we have the opportunity to operate in two worlds. There is the world as informed by our physical senses and cultural influences. This is the first world we encounter and as a result is the primary world that informs us of life. When we walk with the Lord in the […]
Read More BeyondI thank God for cartoons. Back in the day … back in my day (80’s to mid 90’s), there were lots of stories and values conveyed cleverly in cartoons. Good cartoons. Cartoons that a parent could safely leave their son to watch for hours without any disturbance, There are many that could be mentioned, but […]
Read More ScrappyApparently the British are not all that patriotic, My resident expert pointed out that when he was in Canada, he could tell quite clearly that these people were passionate about their country through the flags displayed virtually everywhere. Journeying south to the USA, my expert knew immediately from again the flags and other material that […]
Read More AllegianceI tend to call my beloved wife, “Mrs MacGyver”. This is not because she’s married to MacGyver (to the best of my knowledge).

This baffled me, until I was informed in said video that the word buffalo isn’t just a noun and an adjective, but it is also a […]
Read More BuffaloAm I the only person who thinks sometimes the perception of following Jesus feels like an overwhelmingly individual pursuit? I was reflecting recently how intensely individualistic the perception can be, to such a degree that even elements of scripture that are obviously corporate in nature are individualised. What I love about quality radio is that […]
Read More YouOrlando Dillon. Paul refers to the believers as saints in Christ. The role of the saint now is seen as a special type of person with excellent qualities that help others. 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 HomeFrom the outset let me say a positive word about entertaining. That which entertains can genuinely be a source of pleasure to the soul. Someone who sings well, someone who has an ability to keep people glued to their seats by their oratory, someone of that sort, can be a medicine and a needed tonic […]
Read More Edify or Entertain?It’s not something I mention here often. If at all. I preach. OK, when I say that, what I mean is that in some gatherings, at some times, I’ve been asked to outline a monologue to engage with listeners about some aspect of the Christian life. It doesn’t happen often and to be fair in […]
