Today is the seventh year wedding anniversary of the marriage of Authrine Elizabeth Burton and Christopher Luketon John Dryden. That marriage has been based on a love supreme. (So why didn’t I put that track on, eh? Wait for it.) that love is one that goes beyond affection and domestic bliss. It has lead to […]
Read More Charge It To My Head – CommissionedAnd to Adam he said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, ‘You shall not eat of it,’ cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life; thorns and thistles […]
Read More Sounds A Bit Too Much Like Hard Work To MeThe argument for the existence of God is something that has been with me since I was at school. I remember studying the issue first in R.E. lessons and then later on as part of Theology A-Level. At the time of studying it I was immersed in the kind of mind-set that couldn’t fathom how […]
Read More There Is A God – CarmanSkeletons in the closet. What a wonderful phrase and a concept that says so much about our tendency to not be completely transparent about who we are. It doesn’t have to be anything major, but it’s enough for us to store it away in the hope that no one will ever choose to investigate that […]
Read More Skeletons in the ClosetFascinating singer who has been a part of my music history from early childhood. I only learnt he was connected to the Gaithers in the last few years. This is a signature tune of his in my humble estimation. I love it for the centrepiece. For His Name’s Sake Shalom dmcd
Read More Amen – Larnelle HarrisYeah there’s the Jesus stuff which is very important to me. There is the church stuff, which is also very important. There are the ideas that knock around my head on other issues to talk about (for example I’m thinking about a series on All My Working Life). Yet from time to time it’s just […]
Read More Just Free-BloggingThese kind of songs are wonderful at getting perspective back on the point of the whole Christian experience. It is about communion, it is about bread and wine, body and blood. It is about so much more. It is about what they represent and what they mean to regular Christian living. Starting the day with […]
Read More Behold The Lamb – Stuart TownendYou ever get yourself into that kind of tight spot and wonder what have you done? Sometimes in those tight situations that question isn’t so much why you did what you did. Sometimes what you did was right, but tight spots like hot-spots are not good spots. Yet it’s in those spots that we can […]
Read More HATAR – What Have I DoneI cannot think of many better female vocalists than Vanessa Bell Armstrong and knowing that she’s committed a hefty portion of that gift to God’s glory has benefited more than just little ol’ me. Listen to this track and resonate with the quality and the sentiments in the lyrical content that remind us again – […]
Read More Desire Of My Heart – Vanessa Bell ArmstrongFinally we complete the mini-series that I’ve been writing about the family and my developing understanding of the this crucial foundation of society. It would be useful to summarise how I came to this point with a couple of dating scenarios. In January 1990 I was a 12 year old boy whose concept of family […]
