For even the Son of Man came not to be served but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many. (Mark 10:45) God’s history of turning the underdog into the big dog is etched across the Old Testament, highlighted in the rise of David. One moment a shepherd boy in the […]
Read More Jesus Is … The Son Of ManEarlier I wrote on Jesus Christ as the Son of God and that has been a thought that has been bothering me for the last few days and here’s why. By bothers me, I don’t mean it troubles me as to whether it’s true or not. It bothers me because its implications are a lot […]
Read More He Is The Son Of God – Why It MattersNow Jesus did many other signs in the presence of the disciples, which are not written in this book; but these are written so that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that by believing you may have life in his name. (John 20:30, 31) What an amazing claim […]
Read More Jesus Is … The Son Of GodFollowing the recent blog on this month’s endeavour this is possibly the most important aspect of who Jesus is. When I think about who God is, the overwhelming element is His holiness and I don’t see that as being any different where Jesus is concerned and yet what attracts us closer to Him is His […]
Read More Jesus Is … LoveSo, recently it was my Dad who was getting props for how his example influenced my faith and allowed me to take prayer that bit more seriously. At this time I now think of my mother as I listen to this song. There is the tendency to worry. Doesn’t take much to see why – […]
Read More Be Still My SoulThis life thing is so fascinating. When I was at home with my parents and siblings I had to do what my parents (and big sister) told me to do. There was little room for questions and definitely short shrift for any rebellion or refusal (especially from the big sister). As I grew up though, […]

I hear this song and I think of Wellingborough, I think of my younger teen years and I think of my Dad. Back in the day I couldn’t care less about praying. Especially prayer meetings, they were good times to […]
Read More Sweet Hour of PrayerOver the last few days I’ve been making up for lost time with the great Kim Burrell and this is her again near her best despite protestations of not having much of a voice. Great song and a nice little bit from another classic with her all star women choir. Apparently there are some familiar […]
Read More Expect A Miracle & ChangedMan, it’s been a while since I got some good stuff from Kim Burrell – what is my problem? Now excusing Kirk’s ever dramatic expression of approval you get a glimpse as to why Sis. Burrell is so highly regarded for what she offers in singing and in conveying some real gospel truths, such as […]
Read More Be Grateful – Kim BurrellSo this is me. Harlem Gospel Singers? Who are they then? Well after listening to this rendition of the Stevie song Have A Talk With God I don’t have a problem at all with them. Very good stuff from them and worth you enjoying and remember that when you feel your life is too hard, […]
