Some of us have been reading what Paul wrote to Titus about setting things straight in the church in Crete. Recently we came across this clear instruction to Titus. In the same way, encourage the young men to live wisely. And you yourself must be an example to them by doing good works of every kind. […]
Read More Platforms and PedestalsCars. I am reliably informed that they operate best when the tyres are in good condition. A friend of mine shared how in driving on one occasion he was informed that three of the tyres of the vehicle were critically cracked. Despite that he was able to drive on for a while, until someone else […]
Read More Critically CrackedMy friend and I enjoy talking about the Playmaker. The game goes well when things are organised and each part is playing as they should. Sometimes there are parts that are struggling, but the organiser – the Playmaker knows just how to motivate and support the part. Though different games are played, with different opponents […]

I love it because through it – just the reading of it – I get so much more than just reading it by myself. There’s something to be said for giving that a go as a […]
Read More Reading It TogetherThis blog has been going in some form or other for quite a while now. I don’t often go and look at what I wrote way back when, but today I was looking at an issue and considered what I wrote on the matter. There has been a lot written on this blog about fruitfulness.
