Read More Holy One – Tramaine HawkinsIt baffles me why I haven’t done this sooner. What is up with me? What is going on? This song has opened the doors to the power of confession more than any sermon or bible study. Yeah a big statement I know and it’s not a slight against bible study or sermons, it’s just a […]
Read More Create In Me A Clean Heart – Keith GreenThis blog entry was written yesterday. A fair bit of preparation has gone into today’s proceedings, there’s the highlighting of the previous blog I wrote on this very subject. Earlier on today I posted the first musical tribute about today based on my heart’s desire and then around lunchtime I also put together another musical […]
Read More Thank God For MarriageI cannot think of many better female vocalists than Vanessa Bell Armstrong and knowing that she’s committed a hefty portion of that gift to God’s glory has benefited more than just little ol’ me.

Read More I Feel Like Pressing My WayI don’t believe I’ve shared the history of me and driving and I reckon it might be worth your while reading it as it forms a good part of this entry. Driving comes across to me as a crucial part of a rite of passage from being a child to being an adult. Whenever the […]
Read More Taking Me For A Ride – Part OneI’m posting this song by the celebrated Bishop Walter Hawkins because of two reasons. One, it’s a great song wonderfully rendered and seeing it live is a beautiful thing showcasing once more the merits of great gospel music to the ears and the eyes. It’s not about coming across all nostalgic and saying they don’t […]
