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..
Apologies for such a predictable answer but I’m most excited about Heaven – or to be more specific, the New Heaven and the New Earth. Will it be up there or down here? It’ll be everywhere 😀. Rev 21:1-4Then I saw “a new heaven and a new earth,” for the first heaven and the first earth … Continue reading Wonderful Time Up There!
My title comes from a 1972 Cliff Richard song; Living in Harmony. Here he performs it in December 1973 at the Royal Variety Performance. I could have chosen another 1972 song; A Thing Called Love by Johnny Cash. Well, you wouldn’t let go of love. Love is what you need for harmony 😀. Although if … Continue reading Living in Harmony
I like sacred music, such as hymns, but I also like secular music, such as pop, rock, classical and pretty much everything else. It was always my goal to be into classical music more. The Inspector Morse soundtrack albums were very helpful in this respect, but I confess that I tend to focus on snippets … Continue reading Let There Be Music
I suppose the most interesting one was the summer of 1984 when I bought an inter-rail ticket and toured Europe for a month. That whole summer is very memorable.
I think of an authority as someone who is a university professor, or someone who knows more about a subject than almost anyone else. I’m not an authority, but I have a degree of expertise in metal and engineering technology, software development, teaching and education, instructional design and technical writing. I do love the notion … Continue reading Getting to Know You
I would define romance as the initial rush of magical feelings that nature bestows on you to nudge you into a long-term, enduring loving relationship. I can see that in romantic novels and films, such as Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austin. You can see the romance in Mr. Darcy and Lizzie Bennet as they … Continue reading Love Divine, All Loves Excelling
Maybe it depends on what was done for me. I think of how I would like others to thank me. I would just like them to say a simple thanks and be nice and warm towards me. I’d feel a bit awkward if they bought me presents or started looking on me as their hero … Continue reading Gratitude
I used to be worried about my eternal future. I was brought up a Roman Catholic (RC). And I was taught that you could end up spending eternity in heaven, hell, or purgatory. And at that time, at least in my experience, purgatory was presented as being the same as hell, except that you eventually … Continue reading It Is Well With My Soul
My title comes from the Crosby, Nash, and Young Song, Teach Your Children. Someone needs to teach me what the lyrics mean. But I do like the mood of the song 😀. Well, I’ve been both a student and a teacher. I’m not sure if I’d ever have seen myself as a great teacher, but … Continue reading Teach Your Children
Physically, I had a couple of wisdom teeth removed. I had a general anesthetic for the second one. I do remember feeling very strange when I woke 😀. More importantly is that spiritually, I’ve been given a new heart 😀: Ezekiel 36:26 – “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit … Continue reading A New Heart
