I love a good political thriller. The quest for power leads to underhanded deals, blackmail, betrayal and murder. The one in power is vulnerable, the one lusting after the power will do anything to get it and will eventually pay the price for as the saying goes, you live by the sword – you die […]
Read More Herod ComplexSuperman and Spider-Man have something in common. They are both super heroes. Now I know that may come as a shock to you but it’s true. They are in the business of rescuing people and stopping bad people. The hope of the Messiah was partly about saving as well. Saving and stopping the bad guys. […]
Read More Saviour KingPaul’s Brief Chat Acts 20:7-12 is amazing and hilarious. It’s obviously very important to Paul to share with the brethren at this location. It’s so important that Paul, after having something to eat, tucks into the word he has to share. My favourite verse is 9 which introduces us to Eutychus. He falls into a […]
Read More TimeGod created a world at peace. Everything about the set-up and framework of the creation order was about harmony. A beautiful interdepedence of species and organisms that got an entire ecological system moving even more gloriously than a brilliant choral and orchestral arrangement. Indeed the music we created was a reflection of the harmony of […]

Read More SubstantialHe writes the words, she does the music. She came up with the idea, they worked on the script, brought him in as the director and once we got our two main.characters, the piece just came together beautifully. I saw him plan it out, then they took their time doing the construction. One geezer spent […]
Read More CollaborationIn hunger, my mind and body informs me it is in need of sustenance. It is one of the basic needs of life. It expresses itself as one of the first urges and desires I experience. Before long I grow to realise that if I do not meet this need there may be trouble ahead. […]
Read More HungerWith what anguish and loss Jesus went to the cross And He carried my sins with Him there I am a fan of the sci-fi programme Dr. Who, which his been in existence for over fifty years. An important key to its longevity is the concept of regeneration. Here the lead actor goes through a […]
Read More SufferSolomon. What a fascinating biblical character. The result of a union that came about by his dad killing his mum’s husband. Still, Solomon is born as an expression of God’s grace to the extent that God shows His approval by giving him a name of His own. Despite the family turmoil with a raped sister, […]
