Not At All

I think of good old Stevie Wonder, and his 1973 song, Superstition. As he sang – Superstition ain’t the way. What did he mean by things you don’t understand? Perhaps he means that you shouldn’t just follow traditions without looking into their background. I’ve met few people who were superstitious or approved of those who … Continue reading Not At All

Hymns: Your Grace is Enough

I’ve been exploring some of the very modern worship songs as an old guy πŸ˜€. 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.

Everybody Wants to Go to Heaven, But Nobody Wants to Die

Hi Paul, Happy 100th birthday. Well, you didn’t expect that to happen did you? Right now, I could say that I might have another 30 years left on earth, but who knows what I’ll need to face in those 30 years.

Computer Stores and Christian Bookshops

The secular side of me would probably want to go to a computer store. I don’t think in terms of cities for shopping sprees. Perhaps that applies more to fashion. Still, back in the 1990s, you didn’t see much in terms of computer stores in the Republic of Ireland. I used to like visiting Belfast … Continue reading Computer Stores and Christian Bookshops

Unintended Consequences

No, my middle name isn’t Unintended Consequences πŸ˜€. I’m just a little uncomfortable with giving too much information about myself for fear of unintended consequences. At the same time, if I’m reading blog posts, it’s nice to be aware that it’s a real person, and a name helps that. I had a blog about 20 … Continue reading Unintended Consequences
