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 take a brief glance of some of the more recent worship songs. Because I’m in my sixties, it would be all too easy to criticize these, but my experience of music is that if you give something time, and let go of your prejudices, you can develop a taste for music. … Continue reading Hymns: The Battle Belongs
In this series, I briefly look at some very new worship songs. I’ve only become familiar with these over the last few years. Before that, for me, “modern” meant anytime between the 1970s and 1990s 😃. I do cherish the older hymns, such as those written by Charles Wesley, but I try to maintain an … Continue reading Hymns: King of Kings
In this series, I take a brief look at some very modern worship songs as an old guy who should really be 18 and living in 1980, but I find myself here in 2025. I blame those guys on the Starship Enterprise 😃. But now that I’m here, I’ll need to adjust. Today’s Hymn is … Continue reading Hymns: The Blessing
In this series, I take a brief look at very modern worship songs. My preferred hymns are generally the old ones or the new choruses that I remember from my early years as a new believer, back in the 1980’s. I’ve only recently become familiar with 21st Century songs. I like to be positive, but … Continue reading Hymns: Graves into Gardens
I began this series with my Hymns: 1980 Memories post, so this is the 36th in the series 😀. I’m getting old. 2016 began with the death of David Bowie and ended with the death of George Michael. It was a bit of a shock to hear of these deaths, but even back in 1977, … Continue reading Hymns: 2016 Memories
In this little series, I take a brief glance at some 21st Century hymns, as a 20th Century boy 😀. I’ve only discovered these in recent years. For secular music, my golden period was probably the 1970’s. And for modern Christian hymns, it was probably the early 1980’s. I sometimes feel like a fish out … Continue reading Hymns: Yet Not I But Through Christ In Me
This is part of a little series of posts that I’m creating, which take a brief glance at modern worship songs. I’m in my sixties, and it’s very easy for me to criticize all things new. In fact, I was prone to do that 30 years ago. But now that I’m getting old, I want … Continue reading Hymns: I Speak Jesus
For a while, I’ve been trying to familiarize myself with modern Christian worship songs. Some years ago, modern for me meant 1970s and 1980s songs. But I realize that there’s quite a few over the past decade that I’m only learning now. I don’t play music in church anymore, but I like to play songs … Continue reading Hymns: Goodness of God
I began this series with my Hymns: 1980 Memories post, so this is the 35th in the series 😀. Back in the 1970s, the 1960s felt way way back. Now, 2015 almost feels like yesterday. It’s true what Pink Floyd sang in Time. “Every year is getting shorter, never seem to find the time, plans … Continue reading Hymns: 2015 Memories
I began this series with my Hymns: 1980 Memories post, so this is the 34th in the series 😀. Even though 2014 is 11 years ago, it doesn’t feel all that far back. As I get older, in many ways I’m more contented, but life seems duller. Maybe I’m starting to like dullness 😀. I … Continue reading Hymns: 2014 Memories
