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..
A couple of years ago, I was looking on Audible for a One Year Bible – where I could listen to a few chapters each day and cover the whole Bible in a year. So, I found the One Year Bible audiobook. It surprised me in three ways. Firstly, it wasn’t what I thought it … Continue reading One Year Bible – Dr. Bill Creasy
I think in terms of physical, mental and spiritual fitness. For physical, I try to do a 30-minute fast walk everyday. I remember finding some back exercises a couple of years ago on YouTube when I was having back and leg pain. I did these everyday, and kept going for a while after the pain … Continue reading Keep it Simple
I don’t know how to answer this one because I find that my outlook on books can change with my mood. So, I might attempt to read a recommended classic book and find it dull and boring. Then, some years later, I return to it, and it’s wonderful. And then, I might try it again … Continue reading It Depends
Well, firstly, I’m sure that history is full of underrated people. But when I see this prompt, I think of all the people that shape history that don’t feature in history books. When I was a child, I remember hearing the expression “The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” It wasn’t cherished by … Continue reading The Hand That Rocks the Cradle
I would think that people interpret the term “minimalist living” in various ways. It’s always something that’s attracted me. In various religions, you hear of people leaving lavish lifestyles to pursue simplicity and spiritual priorities. An example is Francis of Assisi. I tend to like to keep things simple. Yet, if people didn’t nudge me … Continue reading Minimalist Living? Let me think 😀
From around 8 to 10 years old, I was big into circuses. I used to buy Corgi circus vehicles for birthdays and Christmas, and I’d visit any circus that came to town. I’d even visit in the early morning on the first day to see them assembling the circus, and I sometimes helped out a … Continue reading Circuses
When I grew up in Cork, I can think of several memorable events that marked the year and their associated customs. Saint Patrick’s Day – March Easter – March/April Bonfire Night – June Halloween (Snap Apple Night) – October Christmas – December Perhaps the most interesting is bonfire night or “bonna night” as we used … Continue reading Bonfire Night
To answer this one, I could enter the world of fantasy. Let’s suppose I got to heaven, and someone granted me a wish. We’ll undoubtedly worship God in heaven collectively, because the New Testament presents that picture in the book of Revelation, but it also describes a new creation where everything is perfect. That’s not … Continue reading Perfect Health
It isn’t easy to decide what’s best. I’ve certainly enjoyed some more than others, but that might relate to my mood or expectations at the time. Anyway, I’ll list a few: Horslips, Cork City Hall, December 1975 This was my first rock concert. I was only 13 at the time. I was aware of some … Continue reading My Top Ten
I’m not sure that I understand the question. Being an evangelical Christian, I could say preach the gospel. But maybe the question relates to tourism and what to do if you find yourself stuck in Limerick for a few days. I’m from Cork, and though I’ve lived in Limerick for most of my life now, … Continue reading Head to Killarney
