Americans. You have to love them. God says. Recently I watched a video that showed how just using the word buffalo can in itself make a perfectly legitimate sentence. 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 Is This The Church? May I Refer You To What It Is NotThe church is meant to be a community. It’s meant to be a gathering of those called out from the world to proclaim to the world the amazing good news of Jesus. How we proclaim that is as much by out relationships as anything else.

Read More Love for the LonelyThere’s this thing called the remnant mentality. In this thinking a sect of the church claims to have the full rights on God’s revealed truth in His Word. They have it. They know it. If anyone seeks to tell them otherwise then it only highlights how they are a part of a dangerous and misguided […]
Read More Doing Business With People Who Want To Do Jesus BusinessHoly Ground: The Narrow View It is amazing how some of us read our Bibles and come to interesting conclusions that effectively miss the point. Take the church building. I understand some people see this physical structure as something of great importance. Indeed some refer to the space used for the main services as the […]
