This is the third in a series of blogs on the topic of my growing understanding of what family is. I started at the beginning – which has to be a first … probably. I established what family was in the formative years in my life. From there I went onto talk about the radical […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Living With The LawrencesYou should know by now, that I’m one to interrupt things just when the flow is on the go. So we’re enjoying the whole family feel and there’s more things to say on the subject, but something happened today that meant a little bit of a change to the flow. It’s still to do with […]
Read More Sometimes It Can Be Too LateRecently I gave a little preamble to the amble through my journey in family. (Come on, what else is a preamble there for if we’re not going for an amble, it beats going for a logue whatever that is.) Have a read to refresh yourself. Where I left it was as a 18 year old […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Pukka In PeckhamRecently I was writing about the kind of environment conducive to genuine praise and genuine community engagement in the light of the ‘spiritual covering’ practice. Read it for yourself by clicking for part one and part two. One aspect of the argument was about how we’re more likely to be ourselves when we’re at home. […]
Read More Consider Yourself … A PreambleI believe in the power of prayer, because it is inextricably linked to the power of God. It is ongoing communication with God and it works. By works I don’t mean it as the magic genie that grants all the wishes. I mean it as that vital element of life that allows me to share […]
Read More Lay Hands & Alleluia – Larry Gaitlin and Gaitlin BrothersI love reading. I know you know that. I know you probably don’t know that if you don’t know me, but if you get me, you’ll know that I love reading. I think I read quite a lot. I’m not a better person because I read a lot, I’m a better person by the grace […]
Read More What Do You Do When You’ve Finished Reading?One of the amazing images described in scripture is the time when peoples of every ethnic group will surround the throne of God and give Him worship. What impresses me about that is how it highlights the majesty of our great God and how only He can bring all of His creation in a way […]
Read More Build A Bridge – Alvin SlaughterI would not be writing this blog if I had gone a different way not too long ago. I could have been what I call a corporate Christian. Now by corporate, I’m obviously not talking about into the gathering as a whole. What I mean by corporate Christian is viewing the whole thing as a […]
Read More Mistakes I Have MadeI did a public prayer for the first time in ages recently and it was weird. Weird in the sense that there are certain factors that you consider when you do a public prayer that you might not consider in a private closet prayer. In as much as it’s a prayer to God on behalf […]
Read More Real PrayerI realise that not every blog entry has to be a mini-essay and treatise on the issues in me head. Sometimes short and sweet can be just as good as long, with pictures, etc. Anyhow I was thinking, why are we so content with church that’s not really in line with the character that the […]
