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’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 old … Continue reading Hymns: ’Tis the Church Triumphant Singing
In a sense, everyone is a lifelong learner. Life itself teaches us many lessons. How would you avoid learning? But maybe some are a little more systematic about learning. For example, for all my interests, whether it’s spiritual matters, hobbies, such as music, or my various careers, I’m always eager to learn. I do go … Continue reading Yes Indeed
Various habits have improved my physical, mental, and spiritual health. And I can think of plenty of simple, fun activities that put me in a good mood, such as playing music and games. But if I’m to think in terms of “the most”, then it’s engaging with God. As as young child, I was encourged … Continue reading Engaging with God

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

Most fictional books that I’ve read are old classics by people like Charles Dickens and Jane Austen. I did wonder if any of these deserve sequels, but I don’t like the notion of adding to something that already seems quite complete. I can’t think of any examples, but if someone were to create a Pride … Continue reading Perhaps None
Perhaps it depends on what’s meant by villain. Maybe I could understand it as a dictator who has a vision for their nation, empire, or the whole world. A stopped clock shows the right time twice a day. Likewise, I would think that most villains are right about some issues. It would be fine if … Continue reading All?

I wrote about Cambridge before, so I’ll do some copy and pasting today 😀. My favourite weather is sunny but not too hot – the sort of weather we get here in Ireland in the autumn. I think of everywhere else in the world as being a little too hot or too cold. I’m sure … Continue reading Cambridge, England
