A number of people I know and indeed love enjoy eating cheese. Notice. I still love them. That’s truly amazing, because I don’t like cheese. At all. In fact I’ve been known to say I despise the stuff. So to still love those who enjoy something I hate is testament to the mercy and grace […]
Read More AppetiteThe thing is it is so silly. We made it in the first place. We harnessed materials and resources. We put them to innovative and creative use. We said they were going to make our lives better. We even saw merit in them initially, they had use and served a purpose. Then it got weird. […]
Read More Who Is Serving Who?Then Noah built an altar to the Lord and, taking some of all the clean animals and clean birds, he sacrificed burnt offerings on it. The Lord smelled the pleasing aroma and said in his heart: “Never again will I curse the ground because of humans, even though[a] every inclination of the human heart is […]
Read More Genesis: 8 – The Sweet Aroma of ThanksgivingSinging is such a delightful activity. Hearing harmonies and melodies bellow from the hearts and souls of people remains the most spine tingling experience yet. Yesterday I raved about my brother’s singing and musical proficiency and admittedly at times I’ve used him as the standard of quality and felt I was way short of that. […]
Read More Ten Songs Of Praise and Adoration I Love To Hear And SingIt occurred to me. The more I dwelt on it, the more powerful it became. Jesus Christ is beautiful.

Perhaps someone will whip out a flag to help with the praise and worship. […]
Read More Say What You See: Heartfelt WorshipI have started The Pursuit of God by A. W. Tozer. It is already burning a hole deep in my psyche and being about hungering and thirsting after God alone. Whilst reading I was reminded of this beautiful song as rendered on Ron Kenoly’s album God is Able. (20 years old this year!) Should you have […]
Read More CD Songs: You’re My Everything O Lord – Ron KenolyPaul’s Brief Chat Acts 20:7-12 is amazing and hilarious. It’s obviously very important to Paul to share with the brethren at this location.

Read More TimeSolomon. What a fascinating biblical character. The result of a union that came about by his dad killing his mum’s husband. Still, Solomon is born as an expression of God’s grace to the extent that God shows His approval by giving him a name of His own. Despite the family turmoil with a raped sister, […]
Read More FirstThe pastor urged the congregation to give generously to the church building fund stressing the benefits it would offer the saints.
