Remind me to tell you of the remarkable story of my wife, her son and my surname. Fascinating stuff, and it’s a true story too. In the meantime all you need to know is that my beloved wife has an equally precious and highly valued son. Indeed to date he is the only son from […]
Read More Appreciating Family In Ever Changing TimesLife in Christ is never dull or boring. Those who find it boring are … boring. I know what I’m talking about. When I look back on the times I’ve been bored there is a direct connection with the lack of interest in godly things and Jesus Himself. I cannot be bored when I think […]
Read More Change of DirectionThis is the final part of a short series of lessons I’ve come across whilst I’ve been on a walk. (Part One and Part Two can be found in clicking the links.) 1. Follow The Man Who Knows: Of course by ‘man’ that can refer to ‘woman’ as well. By this I am referring to […]
Read More Lessons Learnt On A Walk – Part ThreeOver the next few entries, I’ll be sharing some lessons I’ve learnt from a walk I’ve been on with a friend. 1. Walking the journey with Christ with others. Of course I have my responsibility to look at and I won’t be able to blame anyone else if I don’t do what I’m called to […]
Read More Lessons Learnt On A Walk – Part OneI hope that people have a chance to check out the Colorblind album by John P. Kee. Kee himself has a great reputation in the ‘gospel industry’, and he’s popular for his work with VIP and New Life Community Choir. What he will also be remembered for is some outstanding songs he has created and […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Traded by John P. KeeIf you have an hour to spare and don’t want to waste it watching rubbish, I heartily recommend you watch this documentary. When I was growing up with my parents back in Wellingborough, I was fairly interested in athletics and the Olympics. I have a vague recollection of the Los Angeles Olympics in 1984, I […]
Read More Running The Race To WinThis is not meant to be a facetious blog entry but I can appreciate those who might see it that way. This afternoon I had the privilege of engaging in the annual ritual of parent-teacher evening. Once more I sat across the teacher who has the horror/honour of teaching my beloved daughter. As I sat […]
Read More Just Wondering … If Our Father Went To A Parents’ EveningI like walking. By walking, I’m not rejoicing over the act of merely walking like from my armchair to my fridge to get a drink and back to my armchair. Though I do obviously rejoice in this act, especially if the drink is ginger beer. What I’m referring to is a slightly more extended walk […]
Read More Get Rid Of The ClutterI was at a wedding today and I was delighted for the couple. Occasions like weddings get me all reflective. God gives us expeeriences to learn from. Some mention that the real test of lessons learnt is in adversity. That is true. Yet I also think how we make the most of the good times. […]
Read More Learning from Experience: The Good TimesMy wife and I were watching the Abraham movie this morning – yeah all three hours of it. It’s the one with Richard Harris and Barbara Hershey if that helps anyone looking for it. Anyway as I watched it, I noted Abram’s sense of not being satisfied with the gods around him and the status […]
