Loving the word of God is not natural. The more I reflect on the matter and recall observations about people’s engagement with the word of God the more I’m convinced. Indeed, I am someone who considers himself to be a lover of words and am a somewhat voracious consumer of words. Yet when it comes […]
Read More Loving the WordYou can’t afford to be vulnerable. If you are then someone sees that as weakness. Not only that others will see that as juicy morsels for gossip.

Read More The Protective Armour: When You Can’t Afford To Be VulnerableOne of the things I like about blogs and podcasts is the ability to check the archives.

Read More Jesus, My Friend: A Prayerful ReflectionAre you with me? I am a big fan of that question. If there’s anything that life teaches me is that it’s good to know who you’re with and who’s with you.
