For many people January is the worst month of the year. We eat too much at Christmas, we have to pay for all the gifts we bought, we look at what went bad in the year before and try to do something about it for the start of January and we end up failing miserably. Yes, I’m talking about new years resolutions.
“A New Year's resolution is a commitment that a person makes to one or more personal...
Over the last few weeks you can’t help but hear about Justin Bieber. Let me start off my saying I am in no way a fan or a hater of Justin Bieber but for a while I’ve been impressed with him being such a good role model to Christian children and teenagers. His music is very clever. I can truly say I don’t like his music but some how it always manages to get stuck in my head. (Just to keep all...

Having lived in a completely different culture for 10 months now, yesterday I found myself really stressing over some of things people do here. Here in Bogota they have something called “transmilenio” which summed up would be the bus equivalent of the London underground or the New York Subway. I have to say I’m impressed with the system here as it seems to be really organized (compared to the...
Before I moved out to Colombia I finished a distance learning course in youth work and informal education. The bulk of the work was based on reflective learning, so I would do a session with some young people and I would then walk away and reflect on what happened. I have to say I felt like I really thrived when it came to reflective learning mainly because I’m an over thinker which is great...
In the late 1st century lived a man known as Rabbi Akiva. Of late, I have been thinking of one recollection of his life.
Rabbi Akiva was walking along the coast of the sea of Galilee meditating on the scripture from Isaiah 43:10 "You are my witnesses," declares the LORD, "and my servant whom I have chosen, so that you may know and believe me and understand that I am he. It slowly got darker as...
Next week at our Church we start a new series which has the aim to bring out some of the questions that we all have some times. Over the last few weeks I’ve been trying to prepare myself for some of the questions we might get asked just to reduce the amount of erms and ummms.
This is going to be a really interesting series, we’ve had some of the obvious questions submitted such like “Is it ok...
