Recently I did the quarterly review of the kind of stuff that’s been published over at the over place. As I mentioned in that report though, whereas that blog is an open access blog with a lot of stuff easily accessible to people interested in the things I am, this here blog, the older blog, […]
Read More State of the Blog Address: Jan-Mar – DMCDWhen I started blogging back in 2005 it was something to keep me writing. OK to be fair, it was something there to get me writing more regularly in the first place. In those early days I was a bit sporadic in the entries and would go in fits and starts. As the weeks and […]
Read More State of the Blogs Address: Jan-Mar Review – Among FriendsI often wonder about real love. I listen to stories of relationships where people have been used and abused and they’ve stuck around longer than is healthy because of love. A love they have for the person and a love they perceive is reciprocated in some bizarre fashion by the one claiming to love them. […]
Read More Everlasting Love – Cece WinansThe following is something that was inspired by an email I received from a very close person in my life … relationally. If you read it in a particular way it may be structured in a familiar way to a song that was rendered originally by one Kirk Franklin. Due thanks go to him for […]
Read More The Reason Why I TweetSo still on the relationship trip that we’ve been on for a few days now and there’s something marvellous about the relationship we develop with God that moves us beyond piety and pretence to desperation and admitted nakedness.

Not only do we need others in physical and practical terms, it is reassuring to know that when you cannot do much you can still pray. When I say pray, I’m […]
Read More Cover Me – 21:03I was walking home one evening recently and as I was walking home I knew I needed to go get some little groceries to tide us over as a family for a little while longer. As I made me way to the place it occurred to me that nothing beats marriage. Now this is not […]
Read More Nothing Beats MarriageI wrote the majority of this at the beginning of March with the intention of just editing it here and there and posting it. Such is life that time flew by and I wasn’t able to post it, but it’s still very much relevant as an update on where things are now. No matter how […]
Read More DMCD Update – Better Late …Who has woe? Who has sorrow? Who has strife? Who has complaining? Who has wounds without cause? Who has redness of eyes? Those who tarry long over wine; those who go to try mixed wine. Do not look at wine when it is red, when it sparkles in the cup and goes down smoothly. In […]
Read More MTP23 Wisdom and the Demon DrinkYou should have the idea by now that whereas narrative parts of the Bible might demand more attention in the whole picture and then seeing how each part fits into it, with Proverbs there’s enough to keep you going with a verse at a time. In this chapter of Proverbs there were a trio of […]
