The fact that we need someone to deliver us is an interesting concept to consider. If we can get ourselves out of whatever tricky predicament we find ourselves in, then deliverance is not required. And we certainly won’t need anyone’s help where that’s concerned. Evidently, however, there are times where we will come into scrapes […]
Read More Deliver UsThe power in the testimony is not the person whose life has been transformed. The power in the testimony is what caused that transformation. What force was unleashed to allow a person’s situation turn from tragedy to testimony. Recently I sat in on a group of believers who gave time for people to share their […]
Read More The Old Rugged Cross Made the DifferenceIn tricky times it is understandable to turn to something you trust to help you. When experience witters away the things we can trust as they prove insufficient, so we find it becomes less about looking for something that can help us get over the issue and more about coping mechanisms in the situation. Sometimes […]
Read More Psalm 54 – When Stuck Between A Rock and A Hard PlaceSuperman and Spider-Man have something in common. They are both super heroes. Now I know that may come as a shock to you but it’s true. They are in the business of rescuing people and stopping bad people. The hope of the Messiah was partly about saving as well. Saving and stopping the bad guys. […]
Read More Saviour KingGood songs whatever age and whatever source can stir the soul and point us in the right direction. I’m intrigued as to what distinguishes a song and makes it a hymn.

Read More DMCD Songs: My Saviour’s LoveTruly, truly, I say to you, everyone who commits sin is a slave to sin. The slave does not remain in the house forever; the son remains forever. So if the Son sets you free, you will be free indeed. (John8:34-36) It is an age old story – a people in peril, under oppressive slavery, […]
Read More Jesus Is … The LiberatorIt 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 […]
Read More Upsetting the Status QuoHymns. Powerful tools in the musical kitbox to help us embed some profound essential spiritual truths for the journey. I distinctly remember singing this hymn (of course nothing as good as this version, but we still sang it) and taken by how much like a little song you’d sing to a child when they’re going […]
Read More Saviour Like A Shepherd Lead Us – Janna PotterI don’t celebrate Easter, but I do celebrate the reality of the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus Christ and I find this song as sung by Keith Green to be hugely inspirational in reminding me of that reality and I want to celebrate that today like never before, just as Paul said he wants […]
Read More Easter Song – Keith GreenThere are three versions of this song and although I don’t usually do the music thing at this time, I’m happy to make an exception for a song that means so much to me. The lyrics provide the reason why I am profoundly moved by it. In line with the focus of the next 24 […]
