This is the set up. The room will be quiet. There will be a table with the laptop open. There will be a Bible open on a scripture. I will sing a song, then read the scripture. During that I might make notes on the scripture. I will pray about what I’ve read and also […]
Read More Time For DevotionalTrue story. For all the fuss I make about John P. Kee, it was the first time I had ever heard this song in this year despite the fact that the song is probably not far from being 20 years old! This highlights how the brother is not about just catchy tunes that you jump […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Wash Me (Reprise) – John P. KeeOne of the things I appreciate about real talk, is that it can be just that – real talk. Sometimes in church company and certain settings certain language is used, certain phrases, certain gestures, certain protocol that keeps the status quo, but doesn’t necessarily reveal the real. As The Carpenters once put it, sometimes in […]
Read More Decisions, Deletions, Detox and DevotionThis one is a little bit of a cheat. It was actually a film that taught me this lesson, but I learnt it watching the film on TV, so in a way it’s the same thing. The film is of course The Godfather and if I’m being fair you have to watch the first two […]
Read More Things I Learnt From TV: No. 26 – All Business Is Strictly PersonalMoses is a shepherd. Where once he was part of Egyptian royalty with an upbringing in the most prestigious courts of world power as well as a heritage in a unique people group, now all of that is far away as he looks after the herds of his father-in-law. How the mighty have fallen. Yet […]
Read More All ConsumingIt started by recalling how I love coming home and sharing the sort of day I’ve had with my wife, whilst also finding out the kind of day she’s had. Experts have referred to this as a conversation. I like these ‘conversations’. I was thinking, though, is God glorified by our reports on the day? Could […]
Read More Is It All For His Glory?Over the month I’ve had the pleasure of posting songs from the Worship in the House album which this year celebrates its 15th year anniversary. Keith Staten is a singer I admire a great deal love his range and emotion he evokes in his singing. That helps a great deal whether singing an upbeat song […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Lord I Thirst For YouLove. I’m not sure if we’re ever really able to fully express it and are grateful to those who can. Those who write songs, those who play the music behind them and those who sing those songs help us to express stuff that we thought we could not put in words. So when it comes […]
Read More DMCD Songs: I Just Want To Be Where You AreThis is one of those songs you must have on a ‘devotional’ playlist. I so enjoy the lyrical effort in conveying the wishes of God to His followers and how as He looks Praise looks good on us and in the same way that we should desire Him above all things, so He desires to […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Praise Looks Good On YouI came across the Commissioned song quite a few years ago and have loved it ever since. Taking a classic hymn and turning it into a heartfelt ballad to God to be drawn nearer – that’s what it’s got to be about right – drawn closer to Christ, knowing Him in His suffering, knowing Him […]
