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..
eeek! What do these questions mean? I’ve only recently discovered the Daily Prompt. I was going to ignore it, but it’s getting to be fun meeting the challenge. I asked my friend Microsoft Copilot and it replied: It’s about stepping away from screens, notifications, and constant connectivity to recharge mentally and emotionally. People might unplug … Continue reading Pulling the Plug
So, what quality do I most value in a friend? It’s not an easy question to answer. I’m not even sure who to classify as friends. When I look back over my life, apart from my original family and my current wife and kids, I can’t really say that I had any very intimate friends. … Continue reading Anytime You Need a Friend
I was trying to think of a song on the theme of work. I’m sure they are lots, but The Beatles came to mind: It’s been a hard day’s night,And I’ve been working like a dog,It’s been a hard day’s night,I should be sleeping like a log. I don’t know why they say working like … Continue reading Working Like a Dog
So, do I practice religion? It’s an interesting question. I’m an Irish evangelical Christian, and this is an evangelistic blog. But most Irish evangelicals that I know balk at the word religion. Maybe they associate religion with trying to get to heaven by being a member of a particular church or sect or by practicing … Continue reading Gimme That Old Time Religion
So, do I remember life before the Internet? Yeah, sure! In fact, we lose connectivity a couple of times a year. And someone will say “The Internet is off”, so that brings it all back 😀. My youth and early adult life were spent without computers and the Internet. I’m quite nostalgic about all that, but I’m … Continue reading The Internet Is Off
So, what am I good at? At various points of my life I believed that I was particularily good at something or other, but good is a relative term. There’s always plenty of people better than me. I was very proud, as a child, when I taught myself to play keyboards, but I’m no Rick … Continue reading I Am So Ordinary
When I think of having it all, I can think in earthly terms or in heavenly terms. And in earthly terms, there’s the real world and the dream world. When I was young, I focused more on the dream world. I come from a nice family, and I appreciated that, but it all seemed quite … Continue reading You Can Have It All!
So who would I most like to talk to soon? The three biggest things in my life are Family, Music and Christianity. I look forward to meeting my daughters who have grown up and moved to new locations. It’s always a joy to see them. And those in my family who have passed away, such … Continue reading Can We Talk?
My iPad was very precious to me, but now it spontaneously shuts down every minute. I will eventually buy a new one 😀. Perhaps we’re speaking of items that are of sentimental value and that are impossible to replace. They’re quite a lot of these in my house. I think the oldest item is a … Continue reading Precious Possessions: Finnegan
When I think of collections, I think of the slogan for Pokémon back around 1999, when my kids were young – the notion of obsessively collecting them all:Gotta Catch ‘Em All! As a child, I remember collecting soccer cards, coins and stamps. Then of course, I could say that I have book collections, CD and … Continue reading Gotta Catch ‘Em All!
