  • Small is the new big

    What is your ultimate dream? Own a V8? Win the lottery? Travel the world? Or maybe to buy a huge home with a swimming pool?

  • A Father's Love

    It is 11 PM on Father\'s Day. My siblings and I have spent the day with Dad—playing games, eating, drinking, and making merry. Mum got the old photo albums out and we poured over the images of us as kids—looking for the candid ones of us with our father.

  • My son, the Syrian refugee

    This is my son Ardon. He is two and a half years old. He loves Thomas the Tank Engine, his baby sister and helping mummy water the garden. He hates haircuts and turning off the TV.

  • Making big decisions and remaining in the will of God

    God please show me what decision to make! I don\'t know what to do!

  • Living with artistry—marvel and wonder

    Have you ever stared at a hand-carved wooden bowl and marvelled at the smoothness of finish and delicacy of wood grain?

    Sitting in ashes and sackcloth the Prophet Jeremiah cried out to God for salvation. His eyes down cast, tears streaming down his face. He was a man in desperation, a man in the bitter pit of despair.

  • Facing our own reflection: So long, Pup

    After just under 11 years, with 8643 runs and 28 centuries—scored at the healthy average of 49.10—the international career of Michael Clarke has come to an end.

  • Progressive Christians aren't Christians and neither are…

    Christian doctrine can be (sorry \'is\') overwhelming. There are so many differing beliefs within the body of Christ getting your head around what is truth is not easy.

  • Faith not fear

    Bill Johnson said in his book When Heaven Invades Earth that the opposite of faith is not doubt, it is fear.
