Joy is an amazing quality. It’s one of the qualities that has somehow not really been truly explored in my Christian experience. Sure biggies like love and peace have come up. Grace has also been a pressing issue of late in how I engage with others. Yet joy has seemed to miss a lot of […]
Read More Joy Worth Shouting AboutAlthough I wouldn’t class myself as a political junkie I do love me some politics. Yeah I mean it. I love it. What I love about it is that it highlights what we do about issues of power, control, change and social movement. It still tickles me hearing people talk about how they hate politics […]
Read More To Vote Or Not To Vote Is Not The QuestionHe must have disappointed some. They were expecting someone to roll in and overthrow the oppressive political regime of the day. They wanted him to establish the throne back as it was in the old days. They longed for that. They longed for the good old days of glory, glory Israel. But no. Instead he […]
Read More It’s Not How Things Are Usually DoneHe did a good job. I applauded him. The word came across strong and clearly. There was enough in it for me to take something and think it through afterwards and I was already thinking of how I could converse about it with others afterwards.

Read More What Happened AfterwardsI like hotel rooms. Don’t get me wrong, I like my home and there’s no place like it.

Not flexible at all to the thought of working with others especially if it comes to sacrificing their own platform. This is where I long to see a Christian alternative. An alternative that is not about one perspective overcoming another, but […]
Read More An Alternative To The PosturingI must applaud my wife. Not because she’s threatening me with violence should I choose not to. I do so because she is truly a woman who gets stuck into anything she commits herself to. She watched the first episode of the new Daredevil series on Netflix and got proper stuck into the drama from […]
Read More Compelling Viewing, Compelling LivingAll of life is about God. That’s a lesson I keep learning just in case I think there’s an avenue untouched by the reality of Him. On this occasion I was busy minding my own business. Literally. My business among other things involves delivering Health & Safety training. That involves showing the Bradford Stadium Fire […]
Read More What To Do About InjusticeErrrrr … Christopher are you using an upcoming movie as a cheesy link to something you want to talk about? Yes. First thing’s first. I do hope to watch the sequel to Avengers Assemble. I really enjoyed the first movie, I am invested enough in the storyline to be intrigued as to what happens next. […]
Read More Disciples AssembleI used to get hung up on finding the right balance. Being a husband, a Dad, a brother, an employee, a trainer, a civilian and all the other hats and responsibilities I had would be rather demanding. Especially considering the amount of things required with each responsibility. It would be very easy to get sucked […]
