There’s a phrase that people often come across in relation to their current situation. “Can’t complain.” Those people are admirable in my eyes. I very much could complain. It’s not anti-Christian to acknowledge areas that could be the source of complaint. Where we go wrong is choosing to take the complaint. We have the choice […]
Read More I Struggle With This OneSo I was sharing about a funny old day I had very recently. Following on from that, I slept since then, although again it was a bit bizarre in terms of the time I went to bed and when I woke up. In any case, I had me sleep – that’s what I’m saying – […]
Read More Missing The PointHymns. Powerful tools in the musical kitbox to help us embed some profound essential spiritual truths for the journey. I distinctly remember singing this hymn (of course nothing as good as this version, but we still sang it) and taken by how much like a little song you’d sing to a child when they’re going […]
Read More Saviour Like A Shepherd Lead Us – Janna PotterAs I said, it’s all in the timing which can be reached by building momentum. I said it and I meant it, I can see life through that prism and it works for me. Developing on that, though, I came across the familiar passage of scripture that preoccupied my thoughts for the majority of last […]
Read More A Bit To The Left, A Bit To The Right – About PositioningThe mind. What an amazingly complex and fascinating construct it is. From the mind activities, views and language flows.. The right mind can lead to so much good being done where the mind messed up can likewise lead to unimaginable horror. I work in an area of society with a lot of people with messed […]
Read More Get Motivation! Making Your Mind UpThen Jesus, calling out with a loud voice, said, “Father, into your hands I commit my spirit!” And having said this he breathed his last. (Luke 23:46) Jesus says quite a bit on the cross. It’s not a sermon altogether, but when you read Luke, Matthew and John gives a lot of Jesus in the […]
Read More The Death of Christopher Dryden: Crosswords at the CrossroadsFinally we complete the mini-series that I’ve been writing about the family and my developing understanding of the this crucial foundation of society. It would be useful to summarise how I came to this point with a couple of dating scenarios. In January 1990 I was a 12 year old boy whose concept of family […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Where I Am NowI love reading. I know you know that. I know you probably don’t know that if you don’t know me, but if you get me, you’ll know that I love reading. I think I read quite a lot. I’m not a better person because I read a lot, I’m a better person by the grace […]
Read More What Do You Do When You’ve Finished Reading?I really enjoyed putting on the last blog on Elvis singing gospel especially for the insightful view on Elvis and his gospel roots as it related to his understanding of different cultures. It remains an ongoing tragedy that the very songs he sung which could have ministered to him in his time of need were […]
Read More Elvis Sings Gospel – Precious LordI was leading a teamwork training session the other day – sounds good that, doesn’t it, trust me it’s better. Anyway, so I’m there leading it and we get to looking at what makes a good team member. So I’m taking on board the qualities and traits and that kind of thing. Among the answers […]
