The teaching today worked out alright. What I enjoy most about the opportunity to teach is the creativity it calls for from me in making connections to some of the key points. It’s a conversational approach to the teaching ensuring that within it people are engaging with the material. It’s not always easy to discern […]
Read More Quick Weekend NoteIt’s nearly 16:45 and I’m allowing myself a little break from activities. It is a manic week with people pulling in all kinds of crazy shifts in the hope of being ready for a big event taking place tomorrow. The local fellowship to which I belong has taken on a two unit warehouse and converted […]
Read More What I Do When I Get A BreakDavid has been with us at the crib since last night. It’s good to have him around. You must know how much I love my brother by now! I have blogged about him in detail. We strike a good rapport whenever he’s around and I find it helps me to unload stuff when I’m around […]
Read More He Ain’t Heavy … He’s My Link To Some Funny StuffYesterday my wife celebrated her birthday. She is not getting any younger, but someone’s forgot to tell her looks. Even last week someone thought she was in her early 20’s and was stunned when she informed them of her real age. I am incredibly blessed among other things to be married to a woman who […]
Read More About AuthrineAs it’s so close to the time I still remember the events leading up to the birth of my second child and Authrine’s third child.

Read More Thank God For … Married LifeThere are five members of our household who all share the surname Dryden. The oldest member of the family is Authrine – the mother of the brood and my wife. Age wise I come next on the list and God in His wisdom has placed me as the head of the home, father-figure and husband. […]
Read More Family Fortunes – Abigail SpecialOn the last Saturday of 2006 my daughter Abigail was blessed that is to say we made a huge deal of her dedication back to God (after all He gave her to us in the first place). This also coincided with birthday celebrations for Deborah who turned two years old the day before. Now when […]
Read More Abigail Dryden’s BlessingHo hum. Another day and so much to give God thanks for. I had a great conversation with my friend Lorna and I believe God is really working in her life to transform her into His image. It’s wonderful to witness and I’m grateful to be able to hear it happen. Sure I’ve got tons […]
Read More Thank God For … My WifeJust a quick one for the time being. In one photo you’ve got the three most important women in me life at the moment. Deborah, ever the girl with taste realises that it’s egg she’s eating and shows the respective face of disgust. Resting in the arms of her mother slightly covered by the eggstravagant […]
