This won’t be long and will be the first of a two part series. I need to confess that I have far too often been critical. Things are not the way they should be, in the imperfections there’s a sense that things could be so much better. Rather than acting in hope of seeing and […]
Read More Being The Change You Want To SeeMaybe this post would have been better off being called the ‘P’ words and Marriage, (purity and patience are other ‘p’ words that would fit this article nicely) but I’m not too fussed. Pornography. There I’ve said it. One of the things I cannot account for is the age of the reader, so I endeavour […]

Read More Be Careful What You Read …Today I read about a school in Western Australia that has removed the recitation of the Lord’s Prayer in its school assemblies because of a state ruling that schools should not favour one religion over another. You can read the article yourself by clicking this underlined and highlighted area. Considering it was from a Christian […]
Read More Prayer, Schools, The State and The Kingdom AgendaFor those expecting a review of the 1992 film of the same name, errr … you’re in the wrong place. It’s a Saturday night. My first born daughter is safely tucked into her bed making her way to the land of nod. I have me drink at the ready and little snack as well in […]
Read More Patriot GamesFollowing my last foray into controversial and touchy issues I thought I might as well venture further and touch on the topic of how same sex relationships are recognised. First there were Civil Partnerships and unsurprisingly and understandably there are calls for same sex partnerships to receive all the rights and benefits that heterosexual couples […]
Read More Briefly Entering And Exiting An Aspect Of The Same Sex Partnership IssueI saw this picture (Thanks to The Meta Picture) and at first recognised it for it’s humour and then looked closer and considered how real it is. Sure it reflects the American concept of the normal life, but it’s not that different to the British version. In fact quite a number of cultures and sub-cultures […]
Read More This Is Freedom?Almost two years ago I wrote on the issue of Divided Loyalties and something I was considering today brought up the same matter. Obviously worth reading the original by clicking the link and then pop back here. I’ll still be here when you get back. Done? OK, good. So I was considering the issue of […]
Read More The Matter of LoyaltyI spend a fair deal of my time contemplating what God requires of me in given situations. Appropriate discipline for my daughters, the right engagement with my wife, responsible behaviour at work, etc. That also extends to discussing current events and our response to that. Were I to blog about each issue I grapple with, […]
Read More What Does Justice & Righteousness Demand?I started watching Christian TV again, recently. I say again because I’ve not watched it for a few years now as I was put off by some presentations of what the Christian faith is all about as promulgated on these channels. I could not be bothered having to waste time looking for a programme on […]
