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..
Off-the-top-of-my-head responses to questions that WordPress throws up every day.
In Ireland, hurling, Gaelic football, rugby and soccer are popular. As a child, most of my friends were into soccer. We had some interest in local teams, but we mainly followed British teams. I followed Manchester United way back in the early 1970s – the days of George Best and Bobby Charlton. I lost interest … Continue reading Formula 1 and Soccer
It depends on how much I won. Maybe I wouldn’t win enough for a goose 😀. Anyway, gambling is generally discouraged in all Christian traditions and probably in other religions too. So, I’d feel a bit strange buying a lottery ticket. A friend of mine, who’s an atheist, wouldn’t buy them either. He says that … Continue reading I’d Buy a Goose
I’m a huge Audible fan, so I tend to listen to books rather than read them. But sometimes, I do both. And I have numerous books that I bought years ago that I have yet to read. I want to read them all. The book that I’m listening to this month is Dancing Through the … Continue reading Dancing Through the Fire
Sorry for the misleading title 😀. In Ireland, when a family member emigrated—often to the U.S.—the night before their departure was treated like a wake, because families believed they might never see them again. “A funeral wake is a gathering of family and friends to honour someone who has died, usually offering a more relaxed, … Continue reading The American Wake?
That’s somewhat similar to a question asked a couple of days ago, which I answered in my Fun Fun Fun post 😀. Perhaps it depends on the mood I’m in. It reminds me of an old song that I used to hear on my parents’ records. The first entry that I found on YouTube was … Continue reading You See My Friend, It All Depends
Ah fun! I like fun. I think it’s fun. And fun is what I need in January, my least favourite month – or is it February? Roll on March and Easter sunshine 😀. I’ll just write off the top of my head. I’ll choose a few random fun activities. And I’ll end with one of … Continue reading Fun, Fun, Fun
This is a tough one. I don’t have any pets, but I did have them as a child. I think I’d prefer it if they could make me understand something – such as if they’re in need of a vet or if they’d like to go for a walk etc., but they do have ways … Continue reading If I Could Talk to the Animals
On WordPress.com, sometimes people address me as Hibernia because I tend to keep myself hidden. Why? Well, I’m an introvert, and I go through phases of being extremely introverted. So, if I gave a lot of information about myself, I’d probably end up deleting my blog if I were going through one of my “extreme … Continue reading Paul
This question is similar to one asked some months ago, so I’ll reuse my material as a starting point. The previous question asked me to list three if money didn’t matter. Well, I like to put money out of the picture in any case when it comes to fantasy. I’m not sure how to answer … Continue reading Tourism
When I think of the word “leader”, I get mixed feelings. I’ve known plenty of bad leaders or mediocre leaders in addition to good ones. But I’m hugely thankful for the good ones, who are humble and seek to serve rather than arrogant empire builders, like the guy in one Simpsons episode 😂. Off the … Continue reading The Leader Is Good, The Leader Is Great!
