This is the third part of my journey in appreciating the Lord’s Supper. This journey is as much about my own journey in knowing Jesus Christ as it is about an important celebration among believers. The preamble showed the deal in the meal, where the first part gave some insight in my upbringing. The last […]
Read More Journey into Joy in Communion – Part 3 More To It Than ThatThis is another part of a brief look at my journey in appreciating The Lord’s Supper. The prologue looked at the The Deal in the Meal, where the first part gave an indication of my initial church upbringing and its effect on my view of the meal. In this first part my perspective of the […]
Read More Journey into Joy in Communion – Part 2 Seeds To The TurningEarlier this week good news came to the Dryden Family. What did we do? We had a slap up meal featuring all our favourite cuisines. Girls had what they like. My beloved had what she liked. I had what I liked. Some might call it indulgence, but to us it was not a regular event, […]
Read More The Deal Is In The MealNot 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.

It’s not the first time I’ve read about an author and their various works, but on this occasion something really stood out about the list of responsibilities and achievements. There was something in it that struck me. I […]
Read More Who Are You Trying To Impress?A beautiful scene of what the Lord’s Supper means to me was enacted before me a few years ago. John (not his real name) was high up in the organisation, among the senior management team, he was a good nominal Christian, but had recently appreciated how shallow his faith was and wanted to deepen it.

Read More Enjoying The Lord’s Supper: The Great EqualiserBack in the early 1990’s a few years after this album was released, the Dryden family caught up with what everyone had heard for years. That was the way, and it didn’t give me sleepless nights. Also back in the day it was not unusual to take a song and see if you could sing […]
Read More CD Songs: No Time To Lose – Andrae CrouchChristians and relativists make outstandingly arrogant claims on truth. Relativists insist that there is no such thing as universal truths. The argument continues that such claims to such truths could never be thoroughly corroborated from all peoples in all cultures at all times. So to suggest such is blind to the only universal truth – […]
Read More CD Songs: His Truth Still Marches On – Andrae CrouchI was bound to write this blog entry! (Let me get that out of my system from now.)
