It’s fascinating looking at how much my life has changed over the last 20 years. One of the major ways has been the influence of communications technology. If you had told me in 1996 that I would be able to write whatever I felt and be able to put it on a format where people […]
Read More Was That Really Worth It?Now therefore go, and I will be with your mouth and teach you what you shall speak.” You shall speak to him and put the words in his mouth, and I will be with your mouth and with his mouth and will teach you both what to do. (Exodus 4:12, 15 ESV) Much of modern Christian […]
Read More Exodus Extracts 04 – I Will Part 2I am a big fan of conversations. That hasn’t always been the case. For years I preferred guided monologues. By which I mean I would ask someone a question which would trigger them going off on one about something or other. I would then give other prompts and they would carry on their spiel. I […]
Read More Having A ConversationCensorship is an interesting issue. In some political regimes it is used as a form of social control. Anything that refuses to conform to a rule of being is to be banned. Those efforts to subdue freedom of thought and expression have at times lead to an underground movement of thought and expression that often highlight […]
Read More Living The Life UncensoredThe human condition is funny. A number of times you read in the Bible, an interaction take place where God, directly or through a messenger tells someone a number of points, all of which ends with a final outcome far greater than the current situation.

Come, let us go down and confuse their language so they will not understand each other.” (Genesis 11:6, 7) Some might think that God comes off as a […]
Read More Genesis: 11 – Communication Breakdown It’s All About The MotiveI love watching interviews. Good interviews, mind you. I like the set up of the interviewer getting things from the person being interviewed. I love the dialogue that takes place from time to time. It’s particularly good when it’s not just a set up for an entertainment perspective. Where the things being divulged are insightful, […]
Read More Engaging In The ConversationApparently some people like the rough approach. That might work for some, however … So I am in the process of learning to drive. It’s not a long story, but it’s not here for this blog entry. One of the things that I am learning as far as clutch control and braking is concerned is […]
Read More A Gentle TouchExpression. My line manager at works appreciates open communication. She welcomes it and endeavours to be responsive to it as much as possible. Today was one of those days when she expressed gratitude for the way I utilise that opportunity to be open in communication. I needed it to convey some matters for her attention. […]
Read More Grateful For … (12)Conversation. My wife and I do not always agree. Sometimes when we disagree it is a serious disagreement. Authrine won’t mind me writing that.
