The church is magnificent. It really is a wonderful expression of God’s glorious and wondrous creation. When Jesus came to set up and die for the church, He had something in mind that would amaze even the heavenly realms. The more I get to know Jesus, the more I get to love what Jesus had […]
Read More Dryden Links: UnavoidableAmong other things that have happened this year has been the growing appreciation for others who excel in the areas I love. I have come across some brilliant creative types who have helped me considerably by displaying their creative prowess. That has reminded me that I got into blogging and persisted in it because of […]
Read More Pilgrim’s EndIt has been too long since I have mentioned great blogs that I have come across. My writing continues to be spurred on by the good work that is going on elsewhere. This evening I read a blog about seven keys to body life by the ever excellent Eric Carpenter. There have been a number of […]
Read More Keys to Body LifeI love the church. I have never loved the church as much as I love it now. What has helped me love the church was growing up in it. To be fair though, growing up in it was also a way how I grew to despise it. At one point in my life I wondered […]
Read More About The BookSo in the last entry, I had a little nudge at reconsidering the altar call. I thought that would be it for the time being in terms of reconsidering certain staple parts of the Christian lifestyle. So much for that thought. I heartily recommend having a read over at Eric’s Progress looking at The Sermon. […]
Read More Where Does It Say That Then? The SermonNot sure if I’ve told you, but recently I started playing squash again. Yeah. I am. Love it too. Playing it with a brother in Derby who really looks out for me, and is a quality hombre. So I’m doing my squash thing and feeling good about doing something relatively physical. Right in the middle […]
Read More Congratulations to the Marathon Man and Expository DiscussionWhat continues to dawn on me is that following Christ involves a series of realisations and revelations. From time to time, if we’re following Christ diligently, we come across something that shifts our understanding about Him, His Word, our lives and everything around us rather fundamentally. I urge you to read this blog entry from […]
Read More Talking Point: When Ignorance Was BlissThere is some good stuff being written online and after a while I’ve got up with just a sample of some writing worth reading – enjoy. This is an outstanding entry challenging the view of Christianity that sees itself at the apex. Convicting, thought-provoking and so something worth considering on its own merits. Guy highlights […]
Read More Sites to See – July EditionThe church is like a constitutional monarchy, where Jesus is allowed the title, but has no authority to make any decisions. (A.W. Tozer as quoted in Simple Church by Tony and Felicity Dale – p 25.) The book I’ve just started provided the quote for today’s blog entry. It was through the usual connections (King […]
Read More Who’s the Boss: Jesus Is Lord … On A Constitutional BasisI wonder if prayer is a priority to us. I wonder if finding out the breadth and depth of communicating to God is truly explored. There are so many different areas to it and it brings out so much of our being into talking with God that ignoring it is more deadly than ignoring water. […]
