Youth suicide: a problem out of control

Youth suicide: a problem out of control

Suicide doesn’t always make the news.  However, in the last couple of weeks worldwide two girls aged ten and thirteen killed themselves after social media was used as a weapon against them. .

  • The discipline of rest

    My alarm rings for work and I hit the snooze button to sleep for another 10 minutes. I do this three times before realising that I am going to be late for work if I do not get out of bed.

  • So human and hopeful

    You know how at Christmas you get that merry chest feeling, when everything feels light and hopeful and free?

  • Let it go!

    Anyone who has a small child or knows a small child or indeed anyone who has turned on the radio this year has probably heard of this song from Disney's animated movie, Frozen.

  • When God opens doors to new ministries – deciding that “it’s time to move on”

    Next year is going to be a big year. I’m getting married in July, I’m inheriting more responsibility at work, and for the first time in six years, I will not be leading a high school bible study.

  • The hidden garden of intimacy

    Intimacy... it is many things, I could only start to extrapolate its depth; but one aspect would have to be what a couple who sees deep into the other shares between them, something nobody else knows.

  • I can’t wait!

    The countdown is on. Christmas is coming. Holidays are on their way!

  • Change Management

    I can’t think of any other sport that not only values its traditions, but celebrates them as gleefully, as cricket does.

  • When the devil moves in with a family member

    What happens when the devil encourages a family member to make bad decisions and behave in inappropriate ways?

  • Stepping into the new

    When God does something new, you don’t want to be left swimming in old wine. I recently stepped into a new season with God, and I know it can be hard to let go of the old.

  • The Watching Dead

    Who doesn’t like a good binge watching session of a TV series? I know I do, watch an episode a night after dinner and work your way through the series till you are up to date with the current episodes.

  • Sex, Money and Power: The Harvey Weinstein Syndrome

    Have you heard of HWS? The symptoms are real and the effects are demoralising.
