I love me some October. It’s a great month. It’s the official end of any hope of summer lingering. It’s the beginning of the cold coming in big time, meaning more warm clothes and reasons to stay inside in the company of good friends and family. It’s the beginning of the last quarter of the […]
Read More Hello October: Dryden Thinks Out LoudBack in the day, I loved the commentary styles of the likes of David Coleman, Brian Moore, Barry Davies and John Motson. If you’re not interested in sport and English commentary on the variety of sport then this won’t mean much to you, but it meant heaps to me for years. Apparently there was some […]
Read More My WordThere are times when I feel like my life is a mess. Everything in disarray and I do well just to survive the day. Jeez, it can feel too much sometimes and I throw up my hands and look up wonder why. So much for being a child of God and all that. Then I […]
Read More When Life is Like a Jigsaw PuzzleCrowds may be fascinated with the act, it’s only the crew that are on the inside given the insight on what makes it all possible.

The ensuing conversation although it has grace notes and reasons for hope is still very sad indeed. The thought, however, of the Lord walking in the cool of the day, is fascinating. It’s […]
Read More Cool of the Day ConversationsYeah, it’s football related, but it’s still good. So it’s the European Championship in France. Belgium, apparently ranked number two in the world, take on Italy who are not widely fancied because of their lack of big names. Belgium, meanwhile, have a number of very good players. As the game progresses, though, the Italians have […]
Read More Team vs Bunch of Gifted IndividualsIt is incredible the number of times I have wanted to do things on my own. I mean incredible. You would have thought I would know better by now and yet … at least God is ever merciful to me. For the times I have endeavoured to go solo, I am very grateful that God […]
Read More Better TogetherNot long ago I was reflecting on partnerships and now it’s so appropriate to consider teamwork in the light of another humbling experience. I have not played competitive sport for years. I love to watch it, read about it, offer my outstanding analysis on it, but I recognised a long time ago those were my […]
