It’s very easy to get discouraged. All my life I have been involved in some sort of Christian related activity or initiative. The Bible was an important of the household in which I was brought up. Later in life I took it a bit more seriously and read episodes of great healing of people with […]
Read More There Is Healing …Then the Lord said to Moses, “Go in to Pharaoh, for I have hardened his heart and the heart of his servants, that I may show these signs of mine among them, and that you may tell in the hearing of your son and of your grandson how I have dealt harshly with the Egyptians […]
Read More Exodus Extracts 10 – Generational ImpactThis blog entry is inspired by a statement made by someone for whom my admiration has sky-rocketed over the past decade. (You know who you are, Your Majesty.) That inspiration was relatively straightforward – your burden is your assignment. By which the meaning is that whatever bugs you and bothers you and pesters you and […]
Read More Your Burden Is Your AssignmentRoughly 15 years ago I was big into reading about church growth techniques. Sure, somebody could have told me to just read scriptures and then see how God does it in His own time and His own way and developing a science about it is like looking to bottle brilliance and sell it as a […]
Read More For Rapid Growth Just Add Oppression and PersecutionJohn 9 features one of my favourite episodes in the gospels namely that of sight being given to the man born blind. I love it. The disciples questioning Jesus, the response Jesus gives, the process by which the man gets his sight, the encounter with the Pharisees and the riff Jesus takes on the whole […]
Read More Telling The TruthThe 70’s was a good decade for music. Stevie Wonder and Marvin Gaye did their best stuff in this decade, so that settles the matter. This beauty by Andrae Crouch captures the musical vibe of the time excellently and thus offers a great platform to convey a great message far beyond the normal circles. That’s […]
Read More CD Songs: Andraé Crouch & The Disciples – You Don’t Know What You’re MissingI love the great outdoors … from inside. Not one for great explorations of mountains and that kinda thing. Going out camping is not my thing. Even my idea of a holiday is going to visit my brother … in Milton Keynes. (That’s hardly a trip to somewhere exotic … not far either.) I love […]
Read More When It’s Not Good To Stay InsideThe Old Testament prophets had a tough gig. There were the occasions when they could reassure the people of God that they would win the battle they were about to fight. As mouthpieces for God they were primarily there to share the heart of God on the matter and that ultimately looked at getting people […]
Read More An Emerging Voice For JusticeThere is a need to focus on the need for Jesus. I recognise how easy it is to get distracted. The problem of being distracted is that even if you’re doing noble things, they miss the point. There are a lot of noble things going in the world that miss the point. That point chiefly […]
Read More What Matters After The DistractionsSometimes I’m not sure if we know the difference between someone well disciplined and someone who has had an encounter with Jesus Christ. I say that because a lot of the behavioural focus I’ve come across with children, young adults and fully grown mature adults indicates that ‘behaving’ yourself is the key. I know that […]
