You Have A Pair Of Ears
This post acts as a complimentary piece to one I wrote earlier stating that You Have A Voice. One of the things I enjoy about the gathering I frequent is that because there is no ‘official’ leader our times together are marked by as many members contributing as possible. This is not the norm for […]
Read More You Have A Pair Of EarsWhen Under Siege
There is a mentality that exists in parts of the church. This mentality is best summed up be the song Hold The fort. Nothing wrong with the song as such, it’s just that some folks see the song as reinforcing a siege mentality. One that says we are surrounded round about by the various forces […]

The irony of this entry shouldn’t be lost on you. Just to stress it. I love words. One of the main drivers behind blogging. I love the power it has to shape and influence thoughts, feelings and actions. There are times however when words are so inadequate. The more time I spend realising God’s presence […]
Read More Inexpressible: More Than Words Can SayMakes You Want To Sing
One of the things about singing is that it’s a great way of expressing things that words on paper or words spoken cannot convey. You don’t have to be an ace singer to appreciate it. Consider the song How Great Thou Art. One thing to consider Creation, the Crucifixion and the Culmination of all things […]
