The concluding part of our brief series on my growing understanding of family is coming up soon. Today though, I was reflecting on the nature of friends as I was looking to update me Facebook page. My relationship with Facebook has been interesting since I signed up to it about a year or so ago. […]
Read More Friends Now and ThenWe are continuing the series on me growing journey of understanding what family is. As a recap there was the early days back in Wellingborough. I saw a wider world of family church wise when I went to Peckham during the university days. There was the dramatic shift in fortunes from the comforts of church […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Broader HorizonsThis is the third in a series of blogs on the topic of my growing understanding of what family is. I started at the beginning – which has to be a first … probably. I established what family was in the formative years in my life. From there I went onto talk about the radical […]
Read More Consider Yourself One Of The Family – Living With The LawrencesYou should know by now, that I’m one to interrupt things just when the flow is on the go. So we’re enjoying the whole family feel and there’s more things to say on the subject, but something happened today that meant a little bit of a change to the flow. It’s still to do with […]
Read More Sometimes It Can Be Too LateI like the terms fiction and non-fiction. I like the two terms because when I think of the word story, I know people might be prone to think that what they’re about to hear isn’t true and is only told for the moral virtue in the story.

I was reliably informed that this was the game that ‘no one wanted Chelsea to win’. Others suggested […]
Read More Why David vs. Goliath Is Not About The UnderdogOne of the amazing images described in scripture is the time when peoples of every ethnic group will surround the throne of God and give Him worship. What impresses me about that is how it highlights the majesty of our great God and how only He can bring all of His creation in a way […]
Read More Build A Bridge – Alvin SlaughterI would not be writing this blog if I had gone a different way not too long ago. I could have been what I call a corporate Christian. Now by corporate, I’m obviously not talking about into the gathering as a whole. What I mean by corporate Christian is viewing the whole thing as a […]
Read More Mistakes I Have MadeJesus told his disciples that those who hunger and thirst after righteousness (HATAR) shall be satisfied and I recognise that that sense of satisfaction that I need in life comes back to the issue of where I’m hungering and thirsting after. My idea of hungering and thirsting after righteousness is about pursing Jesus and like […]
Read More HATAR – Fast Reflections – Giving It All UpAh. Daryl Coley. Many brilliant gospel vocalists. Only one Daryl Coley. Inimitable. Doesn’t begin to cover it with a character like him. He is simply majestic in his creative use of the vocal chords that he’s obviously been blessed by God. I’m not sure if I’ll ever get to see him in a live convert […]
