A step of faith, you were in a situation when you were not sure what to do, you had to make decision and had no idea about the consequences of your actions. It was the kind ...read more

     | 5,201 views

    We use the word 'But' quite frequently and it can change the meaning of something said. In the Bible the word BUT and the context is profound, we are not object of God's wrath as sometimes seen in the Old Testament but objects of His love.

    BUT… John 3:16-17 In my working life I’ve been on many training courses either related to management, finance, dealing with the media and so on.. One course still comes to mind when I was criticised for using the word’ ‘BUT’ I was using this simple and very significant little word to clarify ...read more

     | 6,165 views

    Christmas is a time of sharing presents and each other's company, a time when rifts between family members should be healed. During the WW1 on Christmas Eve the British and Germans stopped killing each other as Christ's message of PEACE prevailed.

    THE GREATEST GIFT OF ALL. JOHN 1:1-18. The 1914 secret truce between the German and British soldiers has been told many times but it’s certainly worth repeating. In many ways it is surely the miracle of Christmas and its meaning was made manifest in the action of the soldiers who brought to light ...read more

    Jesus predicts His death and Peter doesn't want this to happen, but Jesus' reaction is quite nasty: 'Get behind me Satan'. This seems so out of character for Jesus - so what is going on here?
