There was this conversation taking place between a friend and I. We were going through the things we believe we could not live without. To make things fair, we agreed to consider how things have changed in our lives from, twenty-five, twenty, fifteen and five years ago as well as today. You’d be fascinated to […]
Read More Without … NothingThere is something about being given the privilege of having a go at a great opportunity. The story is told of a man who was head-hunted to become the manager a second division football team. He was told of the history of the club and told that the potential at the club was great. The […]
Read More Remember Seeing the PotentialI don’t think we’ll ever get to a stage where heroes are out of vogue. Overtly or subconsciously there’s an encouragement to look up to folks. Perhaps it starts as a child and your first role models are the folks you look at who define and exemplify what life is like. You see them and […]
Read More Avoiding the Santa SyndromeYou can rely on Him, He is leading. It’s an ongoing challenge on a personal as well as a corporate level to appreciate how God is leading. Reading about the history of God’s chosen people and their ability to see shadows of Him leading and then essentially seek to replace His leadership with their own […]
Read More Aspects of LeadingIt’s interesting. There was a conversation I heard where two people were conversing about how the earth came about and why that matters today.

Read More To The Truth of the Matter: More Than An OpinionIt occurred to me that apt is probably a shortened way of saying appropriate. The sentiment behind both words are similar – it’s fitting, it’s on point, it’s right for the context. It occurred to me when I was reflecting on life at the moment and how March went. As implicit in the name, March […]
Read More Apt for April: A Dryden UpdateWhat I like is when people advise you to be careful when you pull on that thread. That’s not blatantly telling you not to pull on that thread. It’s just a word of advice to be careful when you pull on that thread. What thread is that? It’s that thread that begins when that question […]
Read More Be Careful When You Pull On That ThreadThere are 66 books in the Bible. That in itself should give an indication as to the nature of the Bible. It is a library. A library featuring a number of books and with that there are a number of different styles of writing in it. Even within the genres there are different ways of […]
Read More MWTM: Reflections“Do you remember when you were hungry?” The question came out of the blue. Right in the middle of a conversation we were having. No lead up to it at all. Nothing to give the reason for that question to pop up. He just blurted out the question and I wanted to see where he […]
Read More Remember When You Were Hungry?God loves names. From Adam to Jesus, there’s always been something about names for God. They are not trifling issues at all. The patriarch of faith could no longer remain Abram. At a given point in time he had to be Abraham. The father of the people could no longer be known just as Jacob […]
