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..
Generally speaking, I try not to have peeves. People can irritate me, but I probably don’t spend much time with people apart from family. And when you live in a house together, it’s best to avoid getting irritated. I couldn’t think of any pet peeves. I asked Microsoft Copilot to list some common ones to … Continue reading Who Has My Mariokart?
I won’t mention family or friends. I’ll mention those who I might listen to on YouTube, Audible, or podcasts. I’ll begin with a few secular folk, and then I’ll move on to some Christian teachers: Someone said, “Whoever is tired of London is tired of life”. I never tire of London, even when I tire … Continue reading Here’s My Top 10
It’s very hard to choose a favourite animal. It depends on the context. For pets, I liked both cats and dogs as a child. If I’m visiting a zoo, perhaps lions, tigers, elephants, rhinos, hippos, orangutans and giraffes are the most memorable. But the more I think about it, the more difficult it is to … Continue reading Pandas
I’m not really one for climbing mountains, but I like being surrounded by mountains. And I’m not the sort of person who’d want to lie on the beach all day, but I do enjoy walking along beaches. It’s a long time since I swam. One of my favourite holiday spots is County Kerry, Ireland, which … Continue reading Kerry Mountains
Eeek! Today’s prompt doesn’t really suit me, but I’ll answer it anyway – so as not to break the daily habit 😃. There’s no consensus in my family about favourite meals. But some of us are keen on foreign dishes, such as the following (let’s say the top three are our favourites): I don’t know … Continue reading Foreign Dishes
I could say Jesus, because he is a historical figure, but I’ve already met him in spiritual terms. God is omnipresent and at times He makes his presence felt, particularly when we draw close to him. In heaven, I’ll be much more aware of his presence. When I think of Jesus, if I met him, … Continue reading Paul and Patrick
I think that we all trust our instincts, gut feelings or intuition to some degree. Life is much easier if we don’t need to constantly think through everything thoroughly and rationally. But I don’t like to rely too much on my instincts because they can be wrong. For example, I have been wrong about people. … Continue reading Yes and No
My favourite month is December. I just always like the run up to Christmas. I don’t like January and February much. March is a little better because we might start to get sunshine 😀. April and May are just OK. June can be nice. July and August are sometimes a bit humid or even rainy … Continue reading December
I like the University of Limerick and the surrounding area. It’s about three miles from the city centre. I first visited in 1983 for my entrance exams into Thomond College of Education (now merged with University of Limerick). I spent three years there, graduating in 1986. I was also involved in the Christian Union (CU) … Continue reading University of Limerick
Today’s prompt reminds me of a 1975 hit, First Impressions, by the Impressions. I wasn’t really into soul music back then, but it’s not a bad song. I love to dig up all the old songs that I heard but didn’t really focus on in my youth. And here’s one that I have never heard … Continue reading First Impressions
