It’s as though there is a phase where there’s an on-rush of material that I’m fascinated about and eager to post and there’s just not enough time in the day to do it. This is not the first time I’ve come across the subject of death – although I hardly have a morbid obsession over […]
Read More How We Approach A Loved One Passing OnThis is the last in a three part blog series today reviewing the state of my being as I turn 33. It obviously makes sense then that reviewing a year of three’s and how it’s been all about that number that I do a three part series. Following the look at how life has been […]
Read More The State of DMCD Address – Part ThreeSo you’ve got the idea that today is my birthday and later on I’ll share some more about that. For the time being, I want to put on the record how grateful I am for the friends that have helped me in this my 33rd year of existence. Unlike many years in the past, the […]
Read More A Word For A FriendThis morning my wife and I were talking about expectations. My wife spoke some words that really inspired me to consider the whole thing about expectations. For example there are people who don’t feel comfortable in some church settings. The formality of it, the impersonal nature of it and the ability to hide behind the […]
Read More Change of ExpectationsIt is very difficult to be a follower of Jesus Christ and not be an irritant to your culture. Some succeed in not being a full-blown offence to those around them, but most in one or shape or form make those who live in their culture rather uncomfortable. This is not a deliberate ploy to […]

What they meant was to highlight the crucial pivotal role intimate personal relational input is to understanding Christianity. What they said was that Christianity is not a religion implying […]
Read More Not Just For The Sake Of ItI am a positive person. I’m a natural optimist actually. I don’t know who I got it from, or how I got it, but that is the way I am. I haven’t reached the ultimate point of seeing the best in everyone and everything yet, but there is a strong part of my brain that […]
Read More Some People Are Beyond Your HelpThere is an attitude that I developed that was not helpful at all in relationships. That attitude was based on a thinking that if I was right about something and you didn’t agree with it then not only were you wrong, but you needed to be shown the error of your ways and then convert […]
Read More I’m Right – But You’re Not WrongThere’s this provocative blogger called Lionel Woods (he’s one of the dudes I recommend in the list on the right). I love his blogs because he does not tow the line, say the safe stuff and conform to comfortable conventional convenient Christianity. Obviously having a blog, he has a Facebook account where he leaves even […]
Read More Is There Such A Thing As Safe Sex?There is something reassuring about finding out whose fault it is. From the beginning as soon as man was able to blame it on the wife (as opposed to the boogie, which at that time was unavailable) there was that thing of pointing out (not in) whose fault it was and hoping all blame and […]
