Is It The Hope That Kills You?

There is a sort of intellectual agnosticism that has a problem with some expressions of faith. It is not outright atheism because it is not so committed to ruling out divine influences. Its content knowing that there’s things beyond its understanding. Maybe there’s divinity somewhere, maybe not, but they don’t get hung up on it. […]

Help in the Faith Building

Recently I was sharing about how it takes more than time to build faith. It takes a lot of help. What follows are just some things that helped and helps me. Not that I’ve reached the peak and am the great expert on this matter, but looking back and looking around I can certainly see […]

Faith can keep us going, but faith does not make us overconfident. […]

If You Love The Caller

Means of communication. They’re quite something these days. Send a tweet. Post a photo on Insta. Do whatever it is you’re meant to do on Snapchat (I leave that to my daughters). There’s still sending an email or connecting via video message. I hear there are still people who send letter through the post. As […]

Rest and Be Together

Nearly there, but not quite. For a long time the group were used to getting nearly there but not quite. Just missing out on achieving their desired outcomes. Just missing out on what they had set for themselves. Nearly there, but not quite. When they explored what could be the reason for this, they were […]
