  • The past reflects the future

    This is my 42nd year in Christian ministry and it's remarkable to look back and rejoice in what the Lord has done in one's life's ministry. In the midst of this have been some amazing people who have been mentors.

  • Softball returns to the Olympics 2020

    Softball at the Summer Olympics has returned for 2020. Softball at the Summer Olympics was on the Olympic programme from 1996 to 2008. Softball was removed from the programme for 2012 and 2016, but was added, along with baseball, for the 2020 Summer Olympics.

  • The science of the egg  

    The headline glared at me: "How to unboil an egg".

  • Great line - under-promising and over-delivering

    NZ Stuff ran a fascinating article on NZ Tourism whereby there was a fear that NZ Tourism sites were ‘over promising and under delivering’ and suggested it should be the other way round ‘under promising and over delivering’.

  • What’s happening in churches and young people

    It is 2019 but five years ago I cited Joani and Thom Schultz the co-authors of the book: Why Nobody Wants to Go to Church Anymore? Their research is challenging. Steve McSwain is not so sure and give pointers to why this is not necessarily so.

  • Ministry and the corporate world (PSI Best of 2018)

    Ministry abounds in many places within our society and the bulk of the Australian population has some contact with such ministry – take for example church weddings, christenings, funerals, welfare agencies, play groups, fetes, education, sport, music, concerts.

  • One Day in Melbourne set for 10 August

    The 4th ‘One Day in Melbourne’ for missions’ communications personnel this year under fresh leadership will be held at Craigieburn Salvation Army on Saturday 10 August.

  • “Special religious occasions” (PSI Best of 2018)

    History is replete with literature that has recorded 'special religious occasions' and in some sense the entire Old and New Testaments are examples of such encounters.

  • Gems of wisdom (PSI Best of 2018)

    So much of the comment in the secular press on the school chaplaincy program has a bent for it, that I rejoiced when I read an article in the secular press that put some proper light on the matter.

  • A positive can result from reverse rejection (PSI Best of 2018)

    A friend of mine in international business recently explained that the very best outcome was when a company board rejected his proposals and gave their green light to another conglomerate. That business went bad. Rejection was the best result any one could have received.
