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..
In this series, I explore some of the very modern worship songs as an old guy 😀. Anyway, today’s hymn is This is Amazing Grace. It’s from 2013. Several hymns have Amazing Grace in the title. I think I first heard the version by Judy Collins as a child back around Christmas 1970. It got … Continue reading Hymns: This is Amazing Grace
A concise way to answer this question is to quote from the Westminster Shorter Catechism: Q. What is the chief end of man?A. Man’s chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever. And this is obviously based on Scriptural teaching. Here’s what Microsoft Copilot listed when I asked it about what the … Continue reading My Chief End
In this series, I explore some of the very modern worship songs as an old guy 😀. I grew up with rock music, so it’s not such a shocking thing for me to explore these. Back in my earlier years as a Christian, we had the old hymns and some modern choruses that originated in … Continue reading Hymns: House of the Lord
Here’s Bob Dylan singing Forever Young back in 1976. I would have thought of him as an old guy back then. I was 14 in 1976. But he’s still touring. He was in Killarney here in Ireland a couple of months ago. He’s now 84. And I’m heading to 64. In a matter of months, … Continue reading Forever Young
Now that Christmas is well and truly finished 😞, I’m going back to exploring modern worship songs. But maybe I’ll run out of very modern ones sometime soon. So, I’ll choose some kind of a hymn each day. But for the next few weeks, I’ll try to stick to the very modern hymns. Today, I’ve … Continue reading Hymns: Praise Your Name
I honestly don’t know how to answer this question 😄. There are so many things that I could do differently, but I like things they way they are. I’ll just mention a thought that has recently come to mind. I have so many books that I still want to read. I have been contemplating spending … Continue reading Spend a Day Without IT?
I’d like to have some sort of a Christian message. When I was younger, I always liked to see Bible verses on buses, street posters, and so on. And I knew this guy, Frank Hogan, who used to attend sports events with the John 3:7 sign. So perhaps I would choose that. Initially, I didn’t … Continue reading John 3:7
I have been reviewing some modern worship songs, but I’ve taken a break to explore some Advent and Christmas hymns. 😀. Just when you think Christmas is over, you remind yourself that December 25th is the first of the 12 days of Christmas. So, I’ll wait until January 7th to go back to normal hymns. … Continue reading Christmas Hymns: Saviour’s Day

I should think about the future because that’s the emphasis in the New Testament. And it’s good to live in the moment too. But in reality, I think that I spend most time thinking about the past. Maybe it’s quite natural as you grow older, but I can even remember doing that as a child. … Continue reading The Past
