A Disclaimer: God’s Mysterious Sovereignty God works how He wants to work. Some scandalous, bizarre, crazy situations have been a part of His plan all along. Some of the most dubious characters have been the means by which He chooses to speak to His people. The discerning spirit is so important so as not to […]
Read More It’s Not All About Technique: Real Power in Real Broken VesselsI’m at the place where I can say this. There was a time, not long ago, when I was completely put off from church. I am not talking about those occasional off days you get when for some reasons things haven’t quite clicked and you’re left with a feeling that it’s not good. I am […]
Read More Disillusioned and Reinvigorated: Introducing A Brief Series on PeaceI was just wondering again … Why are a lot of churches inclined to stick to ‘their own kind’ and not be multi-racial, multi-generational, multi-cultural, multi-ethnic, multi-lingual expression of the life-changing power of Jesus that celebrates the diversity of humanity in the oneness we share in Christ? Just wondering. Carry on. For His Name’s Sake […]
Read More Just Wondering … About The ChurchWhen considering life in Christ we come to another tricky, sticky issue. In coming in touch with Jesus there is a quandary about now that you’ve met Him, what do you do? Being brought up in church, after my first personal encounter with Christ that lead to my baptism, I fell into the comfortable routine […]
Read More So You’re A New Believer … God Help You!My sister passed this song onto me the other day. I heard it once, then heard it again. It can be easy to get caught up in the emotion of the song and not pick up on what’s going on and what the consequences are. Having done so, it left me sober considering what it […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Holy FireMy wife and I were watching the Abraham movie this morning – yeah all three hours of it. It’s the one with Richard Harris and Barbara Hershey if that helps anyone looking for it. Anyway as I watched it, I noted Abram’s sense of not being satisfied with the gods around him and the status […]
Read More The Blessing of an Unsettled SpiritWork out. I mean that in the physical sense of the term as in the work out that you would do if you were into that kind of thing. Can’t say that I am. My idea of a work out is figuring out the four women that surround my home. Working women out is hard […]
Read More DMCD Songs: I Need Your Spirit – Lamar Campbell & Spirit Of PraiseI am prone to wander. Such is the state of who I am at times that I get sidetracked from the main purpose of living. So hearing songs like this remind me that I am in a loving relationship with the Creator of the universe who has made it His point of duty to shape […]
Read More DMCD Songs: Uphold Me – Rance Allen & Various Artists“Are you happy?” That is what a dear friend of mine asked. As it was a text it was more in text speech – but this is not a text and so you get the point of the question. There were other questions attached to it which stimulated this blog entry. Apparently my cousins across […]
Read More Happiness and Joy in the Life of a Believer: A Brother’s BeliefI saw this picture (Thanks to The Meta Picture) and at first recognised it for it’s humour and then looked closer and considered how real it is. Sure it reflects the American concept of the normal life, but it’s not that different to the British version. In fact quite a number of cultures and sub-cultures […]
