The scripture reading from a service I attended recently got me thinking about what is arguably one of the biggest killers in life. It continues to turn everything upside down as far as life is concerned. To live, you have to die. There is no other way to live, than to die. When Jesus is […]
Read More With Jesus The Way To Live Is To Die(I am aware that my blog entries can sometimes be on the long side. Sometimes I try to break that up with sub-headings and pictures. On this occasion it wasn’t right to do either. I just had to write, what was in me to write. This is a long piece, but I hope the words […]
Read More Let The Spirit Move: An Experience With The Holy SpiritThere is something about life with Christ that should be revelatory. By that I mean, just as a child we grew to become aware of things we were never aware of before and that changed us, so in Christ we become aware of things we were never aware of before and that should change us. […]
Read More Going Back To The OldA Disclaimer: God’s Mysterious Sovereignty God works how He wants to work. Some scandalous, bizarre, crazy situations have been a part of His plan all along. Some of the most dubious characters have been the means by which He chooses to speak to His people. The discerning spirit is so important so as not to […]
Read More It’s Not All About Technique: Real Power in Real Broken VesselsIt’s good news right. We – created by God and rebelled against God have now been brought back to God by the ministry of Jesus Christ culminating in His death and amazing resurrection. This brings peace between God and us. This brings inner peace. Then it gives a peace between members of the family of […]
Read More Peace … with others (not yet in the Family)I was just wondering again … Why are a lot of churches inclined to stick to ‘their own kind’ and not be multi-racial, multi-generational, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-lingual expression of the life-changing power of Jesus that celebrates the diversity of humanity in the oneness we share in Christ? Just wondering. Carry on. For His Name’s Sake […]
Read More Just Wondering … About The ChurchWhen considering life in Christ we come to another tricky, sticky issue. In coming in touch with Jesus there is a quandary about now that you’ve met Him, what do you do? Being brought up in church, after my first personal encounter with Christ that lead to my baptism, I fell into the comfortable routine […]
Read More So You’re A New Believer … God Help You!My sister passed this song onto me the other day. I heard it once, then heard it again. It can be easy to get caught up in the emotion of the song and not pick up on what’s going on and what the consequences are. Having done so, it left me sober considering what it […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Holy FireMy wife and I were watching the Abraham movie this morning – yeah all three hours of it. It’s the one with Richard Harris and Barbara Hershey if that helps anyone looking for it. Anyway as I watched it, I noted Abram’s sense of not being satisfied with the gods around him and the status […]
Read More The Blessing of an Unsettled SpiritAnother entry inspired by the goings on of the Dryden Family. Deborah is 7 and Abigail is 6. The closeness in age has advantages, they are fiercely protective of each other to outsiders and are genuinely caring and generous girls. (Yeah they get it from their mother!) However as with all sibling issues there can […]
