I was hearing someone else talk about Christianity being about ‘a relationship not a religion’ and reflecting on what they meant, but what they actually said. What they meant was to highlight the crucial pivotal role intimate personal relational input is to understanding Christianity. What they said was that Christianity is not a religion implying […]
Read More Not Just For The Sake Of ItI am a positive person. I’m a natural optimist actually. I don’t know who I got it from, or how I got it, but that is the way I am. I haven’t reached the ultimate point of seeing the best in everyone and everything yet, but there is a strong part of my brain that […]
Read More Some People Are Beyond Your HelpThere is an attitude that I developed that was not helpful at all in relationships. That attitude was based on a thinking that if I was right about something and you didn’t agree with it then not only were you wrong, but you needed to be shown the error of your ways and then convert […]
Read More I’m Right – But You’re Not WrongThere’s this provocative blogger called Lionel Woods (he’s one of the dudes I recommend in the list on the right). I love his blogs because he does not tow the line, say the safe stuff and conform to comfortable conventional convenient Christianity. Obviously having a blog, he has a Facebook account where he leaves even […]
Read More Is There Such A Thing As Safe Sex?I am not sure if there is a more important social structure than the family. Some may argue the church, but that can be seen in the light of church is always meant to be like a family. How do I relate to God? As my heavenly Father. How is Jesus referred? The Son of […]
Read More What Is Family?When I read back on some of the things I’ve said in this blog, I recognise that I can run the risk of sounding rather pompous, long-winded, pious and talking out of particular orifice not created for conversation. I really don’t take myself too seriously though, however ‘deep’ or ‘heavy’ some of these posts tend […]
Read More Being DadWhat a funny old day I had. The blog is not a diary, I’m not into that kind of journal-taking online, it’s not my style, but this day is worth recording for some interesting themes that emerge. I enjoy waking up at the latest at 6:45am. It gives me time to get ready and then […]
Read More What A Funny Old DayNovember. My kinda month. Although August to October hasn’t worked out as I’d like, I’m still very much grateful to God for the wonderful blessings that I’ve experienced in that time. I’m in a position now to blog more regularly now and I’m happier for that and it’s just in time for November. Have I […]
Read More Thank You For NovemberRight off the bat I have to admit that I’m being a bit naughty with the heading of this post. One thingthe last three months have taught me again and again is that it doesn’t matter how much I believe certain things are permanent and unmoveable, as long as I live there will be no […]
Read More Back For Good (No, Not A Take That Tribute)I am still on an enforced sabbatical from blogging and am slipping this one through the net by means of good resources. I am hopeful that this enforced sabbatical will come to a close sooner rather than later, but I cannot say when that will be and just ask that you continue to hold on […]
