I told you yesterday that sometimes concepts and ideas for blog entries can come in like a flood. So for example we have the family development series yet to be completed, and I started off something yesterday about reading and writing that I’ve yet to finish off. Now for these two I already have it […]
Read More Because Who’s Worth It? My Problem With Self-EsteemI may have mentioned previously that part of May day’s explosion of getting paid included the purchase of Marvin Winans’ album. I still recommend it. This song is one of those reasons why I recommend it. It’s a very mature song evidently from a man who has been through stuff and knows what he’s talking […]
Read More I’m Over It Now – Marvin WinansWe are continuing the series on me growing journey of understanding what family is. As a recap there was the early days back in Wellingborough. I saw a wider world of family church wise when I went to Peckham during the university days. There was the dramatic shift in fortunes from the comforts of church […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Broader HorizonsThe eye cannot say to the hand, “I have no need of you,” nor again the head to the feet, “I have no need of you.” On the contrary, the parts of the body that seem to be weaker are indispensable, and on those parts of the body that we think less honourable we bestow […]
Read More Esteeming The Least EsteemedThis is the third in a series of blogs on the topic of my growing understanding of what family is. I started at the beginning – which has to be a first … probably. I established what family was in the formative years in my life. From there I went onto talk about the radical […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Living With The LawrencesYou should know by now, that I’m one to interrupt things just when the flow is on the go. So we’re enjoying the whole family feel and there’s more things to say on the subject, but something happened today that meant a little bit of a change to the flow. It’s still to do with […]
Read More Sometimes It Can Be Too LateRecently I gave a little preamble to the amble through my journey in family. (Come on, what else is a preamble there for if we’re not going for an amble, it beats going for a logue whatever that is.) Have a read to refresh yourself. Where I left it was as a 18 year old […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Pukka In PeckhamThe old hymns are still highly treasured and in terms of active prayer life, it’s one thing to have this song in the hymn book dusted down and sang every once in a while, it is another thing for it bto be a desperate cry in the middle of hard times and having no one […]
Read More I Must Tell Jesus – Parkes Stewart, Deitrick Haddon and Marvin WinansIt’s the end of another exhausting day of work and family responsibilities and I catch a glimpse of myself looking a bit low and tired and drawn almost as if I’m about to ask the question, what’s the use? I then am reminded of Jesus Christ and His love and mission and I am reminded […]
Read More People Need The Lord – Steve GreenHe who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. (Psalm 91:1) So back to the scheduled blogging. I know you can ask why I don’t leave out all the scheduled stuff, I mean for all you know what you read could have been written at the […]
