That’s incredible. You know what we say when we say that? We say that whatever we’re on about appears beyond credibility – it’s something we could barely believe. Apparently back in the day they thought that running a mile in less than 4 minutes would be highly improbable. So it was incredible when the record […]
Read More Doubt vs God of the IncredibleOne of my favourite jokes is the warning a fellow gave to another to be careful of the light at the end of the tunnel as it could be the light belonging to an oncoming train. Light for some is not always a good thing. It can be blinding, its brightness can be overbearing and […]
Read More A Wonderful LightGod loves food. You know times are tough when the situation suggests there is a lack of food. In the book of Kings, there is an occasion shared where Elisha, the prophet, arrives at Gilgal right when there’s a famine happening. It’s a hallmark of famine that lack is the portion of the people. Here […]
Read More From Lack to LeftoversJesus said to His disciples at one point, that the harvest is ripe but the labourers are few and that prayers should be offered for more labourers. The next thing we read is of Jesus sending his disciples to … be the reapers. Be the labourers. I wonder if we would know how to reap. […]

Evidently, however, there are times where we will come into scrapes […]
Read More Deliver UsThey have a lot of questions about where He is in the midst of it all. Is He rebuking or reassuring? Is He recentring our focus or is He highlighting our reluctance to truly recognise Him for who He is? Although the questions rain in as to where He is in the disruption and what […]
Read More Pause for Praise: The Divine in the DisruptionWhat we did at the beginning was meet and pray. At that time it was just in one of the homes. We’d meet up, have something to eat and drink, talk about life both the subline and the ridiculous. You could really sense the development of relational bonds between us though.

Read More Returning to the Basic IngredientsIt seems like the appropriate time to ask the question. Things going wrong all around. Inside and out, there doesn’t seem to be anything going right at all. So when all of that is kicking off the question is reasonable: Where is your hope now? Underneath that question is something that suggests that if the […]
Read More Where Is Your Hope Now?Andrew didn’t usually take his laptop with him. He was usually content with a large notepad and a few pens.
