I’m posting this song by the celebrated Bishop Walter Hawkins because of two reasons. One, it’s a great song wonderfully rendered and seeing it live is a beautiful thing showcasing once more the merits of great gospel music to the ears and the eyes. It’s not about coming across all nostalgic and saying they don’t […]
Read More What Is This?I’ve been banging on about faithfulness fairly often this year and I guess for good reason. In a time when everything dear to me has been put up for grabs and uncertainty is the only certain thing in my life, appreciating the quality of faithfulness and how I often fail but can succeed at it.

Read More Let’s Stay TogetherRecently I did the quarterly review of the kind of stuff that’s been published over at the over place. As I mentioned in that report though, whereas that blog is an open access blog with a lot of stuff easily accessible to people interested in the things I am, this here blog, the older blog, […]
Read More State of the Blog Address: Jan-Mar – DMCDI like the concept of a homecoming ceremony so that when someone dies rather than getting all upset and everything, we actually celebrate the life that was and usher them home. It’s not completely heartless towards those who mourn and this song is right for the occasion. I enjoyed watching it. May have a little […]
Read More How Do We Say Goodbye?How much better to get wisdom than gold! To get understanding is to be chosen rather than silver. (Proverbs 16:16) Hold on a minute, haven’t I read something like this before? If you read Proverbs 3:14; 8:10 and 8:19 they intimate the same thing.

Read More MTP05 Wisdom and FaithfulnessIt was all so much easier when I was at home with my parents. For the most time things like the authority of scripture and the reality of God and the gospel were taken for granted and even to some extent unexplained because they were givens of life.

Read More Is This What I Believe – Importance of the BibleKnowing God is not always straightforward and even by merely ‘taking Him at His Word’ we can end up with vastly different conclusions.

Read More Is This What I Believe? God of Love and JudgementI don’t believe everything that springs forth from the mouth of John Piper. Having not covered his positions on everything, how could I possibly do that. I am however an admirer of his passion for Jesus, the gospel and God being glorified more than anything else. It is that passion for Jesus that is so […]
Read More Is This What I Believe? God As Creator“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
