Ten Influential Irish Evangelical Christians: Part 2

This is a follow-on from Part 1 of this series. You should see this as a little like a child’s school project ๐Ÿ˜€. If you really want to know about all these people, use Google and find better resources, or click the links that I’ve added under each name. I just enjoyed doing a little … Continue reading Ten Influential Irish Evangelical Christians: Part 2

Hymns: 1997 Memories

In January 1997, the first divorce occurred in Ireland, following the referendum in 1995. It seemed quite a momentous change at the time, but since then, so much else has changed. England won the Eurovision in 1997, with Love Shine a Light, the 1990s equivalent of All You Need is Love. Two classic secular albums … Continue reading Hymns: 1997 Memories

Looking After Number One

So how do I practice self-care? I realize it’s a wellness thing. To be of any use to others, you need to look out for yourself. It slightly brings to mind the 1977 Boomtown Rats hit, Looking After Number One. When it was released, I heard it on Irish radio, and I rightly predicted that … Continue reading Looking After Number One

Hymns: 1996 Memories

In 1996, I remember being introduced to the Christianity Explained course. We used that for a few years for evangelistic studies. Later we moved onto Christianity Explored. Another popular one, which I never used was the Alpha course. For new Christians, we used to study a little booklet named Walk Worthy. Popular worship songs from … Continue reading Hymns: 1996 Memories

The Best Thing About Me

Whatโ€™s my favorite thing about me? I can wiggle my eyes ๐Ÿ˜€. I’ve only ever met one other person who could do that. I’m upset that I’ve never got the credit I deserved for doing it ๐Ÿง. There just doesn’t seem to be much of a demand for eye wigglers ๐Ÿ˜ซ, at least not in … Continue reading The Best Thing About Me

When I’m 64

The retirement age in Ireland used to be 65. Recently, they pushed it up to 68 and thankfully brought it back down to 66 after much protest. I don’t know why Paul McCartney chose 64. The funny thing is, he’s now nearly 20 years older and he still hasn’t retired๐Ÿ˜€. I went to a Paul … Continue reading When I’m 64

Hymns: 1995 Memories

1995 was the year that Ireland failed to win the Eurovision song contest ๐Ÿ˜€. We won three years in a row from 1992 to 1994. My favourite was In Your Eyes, by Niamh Kavanagh, which won in 1993. And 1994 will be remembered for Riverdance, which was introduced to fill the gap between the performance … Continue reading Hymns: 1995 Memories

Forever Autumn

So what’s my favourite season? Autumn! I like the fact that the seasons change more than anything. They even change in my Forza Horizon 4 game! All seasons have appealing and unappealing features. For whatever reason, I like autumn best. Maybe part of it is making a fresh start after the summer break and looking … Continue reading Forever Autumn
