What I love about Daryl Coley is that in as much as he has the vocal techniques and he can master songs of different styles, what makes him so good is his ability to genuinely seek God in His singing. A song like this is such a great case in point. Coley is on top […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Beyond The Veil – Daryl ColeyIn conversation with a friend, he explained that if you know yourself then you know when you do something in your own strength. You are familiar with your limitations and your exertions. This is something you get an awareness of to such a degree that you take it for granted. Until you are challenged by […]
Read More In The Strength Of The LordJesus teaches us to be people of peace. If someone strikes me on one cheek, I am to turn the other cheek. If someone takes my jacket, I should give him my shirt. My motives must never be driven with the selfish desire to gain the upper hand or get revenge. This is not of […]
Read More Family Values: Bible StyleHoly 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 […]
Read More We Are On Holy GroundIt’s very easy to be critical. Very easy. I’m a master at the art.

Read More Finding The FaithfulEven when I was growing up in church, there were some words used that I did not understand. I heard the words used a lot, but had no idea what they meant. Short words like ‘glory’ and then some bigger words. A word like sanctification. Now, with no disrespect meant to those who attended the […]
Read More Defining SanctificationThe song was made popular in Christian circles by Richard Smallwood. It is a beautiful song of … well praise. It’s getting to the age now where it’s considered a classic. Here’s how classic it is, I remember being part of a choir that sang this song … ten years ago. It’s a great song […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Total Praise – Steve GreenThis video is the inspiration for this post. The key was the part where David Stephens contrasts what faith is as opposed to what presumption is. The whole section of the necessity for God to initiate faith, rather than my presumption starting something and expecting God to show up was a splendid and refreshing reminder […]
Read More Suffering From Spiritual TinnitusThere are some parts of scripture that are not easy to read. What makes them so challenging to read is because they are so rich and heavy with detail. Such is the attention to detail that you cannot just read it as you would a piece of narrative. For example Exodus is exciting for the […]
Read More A Radiant RelationshipRecently I wrote a glowing tribute to thanksgiving, rating the activity as something admirable and worth enjoying. In the interests of fairness, and because as timing has it, after I was so happy, I was sent to a significant low, it’s worth sharing how I celebrate God in bad times. Sometimes events appear to conspire […]
