I don’t often review commentaries, I read them all the time, but they’re not always the most thrilling of reads that would interest the ‘average Christian’. However, one of the series that you’ll see me review every now and then is the ‘For You’ series, a set of books that help you understand books ofContinue reading “Bible Books For You”

Saturday Snippets (November 21)
As well as reading a lot of books, I also read a ton of articles every week. Here are some of the articles that I’ve read recently and have found interesting, helpful, challenging and encouraging. I hope that they will be the same for you, my dear readers…
Don’t Pass Your Duties to Others
Time, busy, effort, sacrifice and capacity, all words that we probably use on a regular basis, is not a daily basis.

The Hope We Have In Christ
The world is full of news that saddens humanity and brings a tear to our eyes. Even the strongest of men and the most stoic of people clutch for the tissues when they face it. It awaits every living thing. It is death. But unlike everyone else, a Christian has a certain hope that holdsContinue reading “The Hope We Have In Christ”
Give A Gift Without an Expiry Date
