Just a quick live-blog (as opposed to one prepared and typed out, etc.) to thank God for the month of January. It has been one of challenges to overcome, but also some tremendous enjoyable moments all of which I consider as blessings from God. Really happy to have started the Prayer Points series and that […]
Read More Thank God For JanuaryIt is with some trepidation but overall excitement that I announce the beginning of my look through the book of Matthew. As I mentioned on earlier on this year it has been a heart felt desire to go through gospels and share what pops out and now I have the chance to do that. I […]
Read More Introducing DMCD Through MatthewWell as someone who hasn’t read the Bible has said, all good things must come to an end. That is definitely the case for my holidays as tomorrow sees me return to work. School also kicks off again so there’s all the fun for the children as well. The Hols – In The Beginning It’s […]
Read More The Holiday ReportDMCD and The Reading Plan There is this really healthy spiritual exercise that brothers and sisters in Christ apply through the calendar year and that is to go through the Bible in a year.

Hopefully you know how these deals go on. Lots of showbiz types […]

Just when I get all introspective and think that I’m going through this life thing on my own, God reminds me of some crucial people in my circle of influence without whom I wouldn’t even be in the privileged position of being able to mope around being all introspective.

Read More A Tribute To A Wonderful PrincessSchool plays. Did you love school plays? Even if they were just plays for your year or your class, did you like them? I liked them. I remember doing ‘There’s A Hole In My Bucket’ at Infant School – but that is a vague recollection of my first performance. I remember the school plays when […]
Read More Leaving Stoke – One Year OnAs I mentioned at the start of the month there are a number of significant events and milestones that take place over this month. A dear family friend will be celebrating her birthday with us, hopefully. This week also sees the first year anniversary of our departure from living in Stoke-on-Trent. The most important event […]
Read More Happy 5th Blog BirthdayOne of the people I’ve come across on this Christian journey gave me the impression that his early spiritual development was on his own – it was just him and the Holy Spirit – not other influences, just him, the Spirit and his Bible.
