It’s not something I mention here often. If at all. I preach. OK, when I say that, what I mean is that in some gatherings, at some times, I’ve been asked to outline a monologue to engage with listeners about some aspect of the Christian life. It doesn’t happen often and to be fair in […]
Read More My Greatest Sermon EverYou want to know how this started? Blame King Arthur Sido. It is really worth me mentioning what a huge admirer I am of his blog. I enjoy taking time to read his perspective and passion about the things of God. On this occasion he posted a really cool video of N.T. Wright talking about […]
Read More Being Truly HumanThe church is meant to be a community. It’s meant to be a gathering of those called out from the world to proclaim to the world the amazing good news of Jesus. How we proclaim that is as much by out relationships as anything else. So we have Jesus in John 17 making a heartfelt […]
Read More Love for the LonelyThere’s this thing called the remnant mentality. In this thinking a sect of the church claims to have the full rights on God’s revealed truth in His Word. They have it. They know it. If anyone seeks to tell them otherwise then it only highlights how they are a part of a dangerous and misguided […]
Read More Doing Business With People Who Want To Do Jesus BusinessIt’s very easy to be critical. Very easy. I’m a master at the art. If I stick around something long enough and I can carefully go about showing just how bad the thing is. Over the years I’ve understood that this practice is very limiting in its capacity to bring about the real joy of […]
Read More Finding The FaithfulCarry each other’s burdens, and in this way you will fulfil the law of Christ. (Galatians 6:2) There is something about this verse that has huge consequences for how we relate with brothers and sisters in Christ. It’s also got to impact how we spend our time with each other. For Paul to say that this […]
Read More Carrying Each Other’s BurdensThere are some parts of scripture that are not easy to read. What makes them so challenging to read is because they are so rich and heavy with detail. Such is the attention to detail that you cannot just read it as you would a piece of narrative. For example Exodus is exciting for the […]
Read More A Radiant RelationshipTwo things to start this entry. In a few short days’ time Dr. Who will celebrate its 50th anniversary. Also it’s my birthday today. Now the connection between the two won’t see me go all fan-loving on Dr. Who. It’s there for a reason. In the latest edition of Dr. Who Magazine, the programme showrunner, […]
Read More A Time For Now To Look Back And Look AheadI saw a friend today who I haven’t seen in a few years. We hugged like long lost loving brothers. He is such a beautiful man and I have nothing but good memories and good things to say about him. What makes me love him so much, among other things, is that he brings out […]
Read More The Beauty That Encourages BeautyThis post acts as a complimentary piece to one I wrote earlier stating that You Have A Voice. One of the things I enjoy about the gathering I frequent is that because there is no ‘official’ leader our times together are marked by as many members contributing as possible. This is not the norm for […]
