All Consuming

Moses is a shepherd. Where once he was part of Egyptian royalty with an upbringing in the most prestigious courts of world power as well as a heritage in a unique people group, now all of that is far away as he looks after the herds of his father-in-law. How the mighty have fallen. Yet […]

Faith Dilemmas

When is an opportunity actually a diversion? When does a noble well intentioned God-idea get ever so slightly distorted by well meaning but erroneous man-plans? When is a step of faith a fateful step? I get the impression more and more that life was made for taking risks. However calculated and confident they may appear, […]

Believing: For What Reason

I was watching the first episode of The Kennedys. Apparently the dudes over the pond got upset about it for a variety of reasons. Thankfully folk over here like the good ol’ BBC had no such qualms. Without giving away too much if you have not watched it, part of the episode covers the World […]

Across The Bridge

I grew up in a good Christian home. Two loving parents who did their best by their children and three children who did their best to get the worst out of each other, but behind which there was a bond and an affection that was really realised when we all left the family home and […]

Does God Love Everyone?

Apparently the phrase God loves the sinner but hates the sin came from Gandhi.  Apparently.  In any case it is a view that is held by those who want to hold a view on the love of God that is all embracing as though He could never hate anyone and it would go against His […]

Sermon Jam: Because He Is Good

Not only does Chandler hit a home run with getting people into what is sin and our position before God, but the dude who put together the audio and visual aspects of this video together also hits a home run with the quality of it.  Worth viewing and contemplating – twice, at least. For His […]
