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
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, 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
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!
So, what legacy would I want to leave behind? That’s an interesting question. When I was young, I dreamt of being famous or important. Maybe it would be easier to answer the question if my dreams had come true 😀. But I’m just an ordinary guy. I was listening to a podcast some time ago, … Continue reading Only One Life
I don’t think I feel the cold as much as most people that I know. And in Ireland, it doesn’t generally get too hot or too cold. I only really notice the cold in Winter when I want to sit or lie down and feel comfortable. A hot water bottle helps. Maybe they’re a bit … Continue reading Hearts Aflame
I was never big into playing sports and climbing trees etc., so I never broke any bones. But I do have one claim to fame. I chipped a bone in my foot once. When I was a voluntary evangelist (VE) with London City Mission, I was on my way to a Bible Study at Bermondsey … Continue reading Dem Bones, Dem Bones, Dem Dry Bones
