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..

I have lots of books that I never finished but still think about 😀. The one that haunts me most is The Gagging of God by Don Carson. I have read a good bit of it, but sometimes, I get distracted and come back and start all over in a few months – and get … Continue reading The Gagging of God by Don Carson
Here in Ireland, there was, and maybe still is, a massive drive to make Irish, rather than English, our most widely spoken language. It shouldn’t be difficult. We all had to learn it in primary and secondary school. And some of us even had to learn it at third level. I had to learn Irish … Continue reading Speaking Irish
Yeah. I’ve often heard people say that. But their reasons for saying it can vary. For an example, an atheist might say that the moon goes around the earth because of the forces acting on it. It doesn’t just happen by choice or chance. And maybe some would say that all the decisions that we … Continue reading God is Working His Purpose Out
I glance at various apps, such as email, Facebook, Jetpack and so on. I spend a lot of time listening to Audible, but I don’t spend much time looking at it. I spend most time on YouTube. I often watch it on my Meta Oculus. I don’t necessarily watch 3D clips. There aren’t many to … Continue reading YouTube
I’ve read the Bible more than any other book. Strictly speaking, The Bible has 66 books, but when I think of a book, I think of something that looks like a single book. And I probably read the Bible online (e.g. Bible Gateway) or listen to it nowadays more than reading a physical book. But … Continue reading Wonderful Words of Life
I don’t think that I can find any period that stands out as being particularly harder than any other era. I had a few difficult days or weeks, but extreme trouble never went on too long thankfully. But in general life, in any given week, school, university or work was the hard bit. I’d look … Continue reading In This World, You Will Have Trouble
Currently, I just enjoy randomly jumping in and out of blogs. I would like to read more, but I’m probably more inclined to watch YouTube rather than read, though I hope that that I’ll soon change. I don’t know if I have a favourite blog. I do have some here on WordPress that I’ve subscribed … Continue reading Heavenly Worldliness
I generally like happy endings. Some books/movies had endings that shocked or disappointed me. Examples include Middlemarch, Gone with the Wind, War and Peace, and Doctor Zhivago. But perhaps always wanting a happy ending wouldn’t mirror real life. But I have enough experience of real life 😀. For fantasy, I’d prefer to tweak the closing … Continue reading Alice in Wonderland
Let me think 😀 – I’d like to go way back to the 1960s and experience my first group of movies. Mary Poppins was the first one, with Batman soon after. Back then we had black and white TV, so it was great seeing all the Batman characters in colour. I remember seeing James Bond’s … Continue reading Chariots of Fire
A song that comes to mind is Wings of a Dove by Madness, from the summer of 1983. This is a Christian blog, so I could say hymns – any hymn, when I deeply reflect on it. But secular songs can put me in a good mood too. Most older songs bring me back in … Continue reading Wings of a Dove – Madness
