An Irish personal evangelistic site. I'm not representing a particular church, but it's broadly evangelical in tone. My aim is to cover topics I've encountered in discussions I've had over the years, mainly here in Ireland..
Trouble, troubleI try to chase trouble but it’s chasing meTrouble, troubleTrouble with a capital T Way back in the late 1970s, when I first heard Horslip’s Trouble with a Capital T, I probably understood little about mental health. I certainly remember feeling anxious and down in the dumps as a teenager. Music has always been … Continue reading Trouble with a Capital T
I’ve been exploring some of the very modern worship songs as an old guy 😀. But now, I’ve decided to alternate between very modern hymns, old hymns, and in-between hymns, namely the worship songs from the 60s to the 90s that feature in hymnbooks such as Mission Praise. Today it’s the turn of the very … Continue reading Hymns: Your Name
This makes me think about Eminen’s Lose Yourself. I don’t know what it’s about – maybe about overcoming fear, but it’s the most anxiety inducing song that I ever heard 😅. We can understand the expression “lose yourself” in different ways. When I read the Bible, I don’t really lose myself. I’m conscious of what … Continue reading Whoops There Goes Gravity
If I’m on my own, I might be more likely to watch a documentary rather than a movie or fictional TV series. And I don’t count how many times I watch something. But I’ve certainly watched some movies or TV series more than five times. Here are examples: There are probably many mor,e but these … Continue reading Here’s a List

I think of good old Stevie Wonder, and his 1973 song, Superstition. As he sang – Superstition ain’t the way. What did he mean by things you don’t understand? Perhaps he means that you shouldn’t just follow traditions without looking into their background. I’ve met few people who were superstitious or approved of those who … Continue reading Not At All

Physically, perhaps I look like a monkey. I had a beard at various stages. When I was a teacher, some of the kids called me a wolfman 😀. However, I generally like to think in terms of how Jesus views us. And we are His sheep, if we believe in Him. Being sheepish is sometimes … Continue reading A Sheep
