Without love

If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate..

  • Being at peace in an anxious world

    In our everyday life, there is always a temptation to worry. Worry can span all areas from life, from relationships, finances to even our own spiritual state before God. We see that God’s word is not ignorant of this but gives us great promises and commands. These truths will help us to fight against the many worries that we face in our day to day life, regardless of the size of the worry.

  • How I became the rich fool

    We want to be wealthy, yet so many of us fall into the same trap of the rich fool in Jesus’ Parable of the Rich Fool found in Luke chapter 12.

  • Opportunities missed in every arena of life

    Two illustrations of opportunities missed is sufficient to demonstrate the issues associated with thus. One a recent local situation and the other, an international one from a few years ago with long term ramifications.

  • Australia and free speech

    ‘Religious beliefs are part of the humanity of every individual. In a civilised society, individuals respect each other’s beliefs. This enables them to live in harmony.’ – Lord Nicholls

  • Open Love to All

    On the 15th of March 2019, fifty lives were taken by a terrorist in two mosques across Christchurch, New Zealand.

  • Walk the call, use the gifts!

    I believe we have this one life to walk out the call of God on our lives, one opportunity, one chance, there is no going back. I have been getting convicted lately because I haven't been living with that in mind. Which is why I have written this!

  • The beauty of youth ministry

    Let's not forget what youth ministry involves – the sparking of untapped potential, the awakening of spiritual life, support from a diverse community. Without a doubt, God sees this and rejoices.

  • Accusation

    Accusation has become a standard feature of life in Australia today. This is a consequence of the politicisation of everything, and perhaps an invariable result of the hyper-information age, where through social media we know too much things about the lives too many people.

  • Fire and New Growth

    Dry weather doesn’t usually lead to more bushfires but it does increase the size, ferocity and danger of the fires we do have.

  • Facing the sharks

    A couple years ago I discovered this show called Shark Tank and loved it immediately. I forgot about it ever since but just recently stumbled across a YouTube video that was a segment from the show. I decided to watch a couple of episodes and realized once again how much I enjoy the show.

  • When heroine is merely correct vocabulary

    I went to see a movie recently and I was reminded of a moment from a George Lucas classic: Raiders of the Lost Arc, the first Indiana Jones movie. The scene is not the big one at the end where the power of God erupts from the Arc of the Covenant and the faces melt like wax. It is the moment when Indy is confronted by the warrior wielding a scimitar expertly, challenging Indy to join him in combat.
