    AN INVITATION NOT TO BE REFUSED I read of a visiting preacher who arrived at the church and read the poster announcing him as a "preacher with the unchanged message". He had a nasty moment when he thought that the news had got out that he had only one sermon to his name! Charles Spurgeon got ...read more

    It was a time of reflection for David; 2 Samuel Chapter 23 begins by telling us these were the last words that David spoke. Now whether or not they were literally the last words that he spoke, or the last words of importance that he spoke, or the last recorded words he spoke, we don’t know. We ...read more

Every morning we’d pack up our stuff, climb on our bikes and head down to the neighborhood swimming pool. There were usually a gang of about 6 of us, sometimes more, sometimes less.
