So I’m reading about Michael Foot as you know and it’s just one of a number of books of a political flavour. A good question to ask is what is it with all the politics? I find it interesting that some cultural traditions have it that around the dinner table or in the home two […]
Read More Power and FreedomToday I could not locate the latest in the Maurice Barratt series on the Sermon on the Mount that I am reading, so I elected to continue reading the Michael Foot biography by Kenneth O. Morgan. I have been reading it I believe for over a week now and it is proving to be a […]
Read More Until Your Love Broke ThroughYou’re aware that I’ve talked before about confessional community (there was this one, then that one before the other one). It is something that I desperately desire and there have been experiences where I’ve caught a glimpse of what that life might look like. This evening I had the chance to talk with a dear […]
Read More Confessional Community – In The Bigger PictureYou know I’ve been mentioning assignments of late, well tonight is a very interesting one as I have to complete another one. I believe it really is the last proper assignment that I’ll have to do for a while, so if I can put in the effort over the next hour or so then I […]
Read More Dealing With Cares: Sing A SongIt’s been bugging me for a number of weeks now. I brought it up in a text conversation with my brother a week or so ago.

Read More He Will Be ThereI interrupt the flow of insight into what’s been going on with me lately to give another update of sorts on the teaching front. Yes you do recall some of the sessions I’ve had of date as I’ve made note about them of late. The last note I made was the one before the big […]
Read More Getting All OrchestralIn their case the god of this world has blinded the minds of the unbelievers, to keep them from seeing the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God. (2 Corinthians 4:4) Yesterday on the way into work I was reflecting on the words ‘disenchanted’ and ‘disillusioned’. It […]
Read More Hope You’re Getting DisToday my only biological brother celebrated his 31st birthday. David joins my father and I in not being that much bothered about birthday celebrations. Then again the whole point about these things is that you don’t have to be bothered when other people will be bothered for you. When it comes to being bothered about […]
Read More He’s My BrotherFor the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. (Matthew 7:14) Should God spare my life and give me the opportunity I would love to write out my spiritual journey as fully as I can more as a testament to the greatness of […]
