It's a Sunday afternoon with the clearest of blue skies, a breeze that rustles through the trees and the sense that this summer will be better than the last. Lockdowns became a catalyst for breakdowns of relationships, the mind, the body and much more. There was so much loss felt in 2020 by so many.… Continue reading The Hardest Post

Hope for Hard Times
There is a lot of fear, panic, uncertainty and unknowns that we are experiencing in the face of the coronavirus epidemic. Many people are also rallying together in light of this situation to help their communities in new ways to ensure social distancing. And I personally am thanking all of those individuals who are working… Continue reading Hope for Hard Times

An interview with David Robertson – The Wee Flea
Ever since I asked David if he wouldn't mind helping me answer an atheist on my blog, I have been fascinated with his writing and engagement with others in the public sphere. From being attacked for his views on social media to being banned on Twitter, David is no stranger of being at the centre… Continue reading An interview with David Robertson – The Wee Flea
An interview with Gavin Calver – story, sin and sharing good news
Tell us a little bit about you and how you came to faith! I grew up in a Christian home, did my best to follow the faith but it didn't quite work out that way.

Is Hell For Real? by Erik Raymond – Book Review
The latest book in the 'Questions Christians Ask' book series 'Is Hell For Real? And other questions about judgment, eternity and the God of love' is a topic that I have grappled with time and again.

Unpopular Culture by Guvna B – Book Review
Guvna B has written a much-needed book that I feel many people need to read and will benefit from. Even though the book is called 'Unpopular Culture', I hope that it will become an extremely popular book! He carefully weaves details of his own experiences of living in a culture that is often opposed to… Continue reading Unpopular Culture by Guvna B – Book Review
The banner on the bus says…
This blog post has been on my mind for the last few days. I have been contemplating how to convey my thoughts without being controversial. I guess that's the nature of 'religion' in the 21st century Western society that I find myself in. Whether it's the Archbishops causing controversy over a letter sent to clergy… Continue reading The banner on the bus says…
Nabeel Qureshi’s cancer diagnosis – a morning reflection
Sad news seems to have a habit of reaching me in the morning. I think it's coincidence but I can't help but notice the pattern. I remember my mum waking me in the morning to tell me that my Grandad had died. Flicking through Facebook like reading the morning newspaper, I read touching posts and… Continue reading Nabeel Qureshi’s cancer diagnosis – a morning reflection
