Do It

John D. Baptist was very brave. I mean who eats locusts? And honey? Who does that? But there is John having them as his diet. I wonder if he had Locust Pies? Locust Fillet? Pomme du Locusts? It’s a tough diet, but the brother stuck to it to his credit. So it’s got to take […]

Reconciliation

God created a world at peace. Everything about the set-up and framework of the creation order was about harmony.  A beautiful interdepedence of species and organisms that got an entire ecological system moving even more gloriously than a brilliant choral and orchestral arrangement.  Indeed the music we created was a reflection of the harmony of […]

Collaboration

He writes the words, she does the music. She came up with the idea, they worked on the script, brought him in as the director and once we got our two main.characters, the piece just came together beautifully. I saw him plan it out, then they took their time doing the construction. One geezer spent […]

Maverick

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 […]

Beyond

As 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 […]

Scrappy

I 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 […]

Allegiance

Apparently 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 […]

Resourceful

I tend to call my beloved wife, “Mrs MacGyver”. This is not because she’s married to MacGyver (to the best of my knowledge). It’s primarily because she displays such a spirit of make-do in whatever situation she finds herself. Her capacity to turn an seemingly empty kitchen into a belly filling gourmet delight leaves me […]

Buffalo

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 […]

You

Am 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 […]
