If my wealth was measured by the quality of people I know well, I would be ten times richer than Bill Gates. One such quality person gave me the honour of visiting a group of us in July to deliver one of my favourite learning sessions of the year. Some people are reluctant to do […]
Read More YIR15 – 07 – The VerdictThings happen and sometimes it happens to get us to look at who we are as well as what we do in order to see if it makes sense to persist or to change. April was such a month for that type of reflection. It was done in the company of good people who gave […]
Read More YIR15 – 04 – Sober Reflection for Promising ProgressWhat I recall most about February was the need to deepen relationships. I was blessed to be visited by a dear friend who spent quality time opening my eyes to the riches of Kingdom Living. Having those experiences was a highly inspiring experience and it enthused me even in my work life where I began […]
Read More YIR15 – 02 – Getting DeeperThere are things that bother me and I get caught up with it sometimes. This week for example, there’s a football club doing poorly, so they sack the manager.

Read More Who Is It For?The world is upside down. Sometimes it feels that way. It feels messed up and in disarray and all I am doing is putting a brave face as the mess gets messier.

It’s a long story about the making of the journey to Aberdeen, but recently I was privileged to make the trip. I went with a really great friend. The trip did heaps to improve my respect for him so that was a big bonus […]
Read More About August’s Aberdeen AdventureSomeone pointed out to me that the Garden of Eden was the first restaurant in creation. That makes God the first waiter and chef. Talk about quality customer service, God was thus the first five star restaurateur. Imagine all the fruit in all the garden at his disposal. The only way to get kicked out […]
Read More Having A MealPeople would do anything to get in. Poor, abused, hungry, destitute, alienated, damaged and afraid. Told for ages that only the elite can succeed, that only the rich, intelligent, resourceful and well connected will only truly thrive. Injustice and inequity rampages unchecked. They will be the trodden, they will suffer first. So if you pointed […]
Read More A Word On OpportunityHanley Park located in Stoke-on-Trent is a pleasant Park overall. More or less. Kinda. When I walk to the train station I tend to go through the park and do enjoy strolling through it. Yet the Park is not in peak condition.
