Holiday reads
For some people their ideal holiday is a lovely city break, walking around viewing the architecture. For others their dream holiday is exploring new places, hiking and doing adventurous things. For me, my ideal holiday is where I get the time and space to sit in the sun and read. When we go on holidayContinue reading “Holiday reads”
Road map to Jesus
Well folks, it’s here, my book is finally available! It’s both exciting and scary. Exciting because my labour of the last couple years has finally taken shape. Scary because people are reading my words and reviews are coming in. I tell you, it’s weird being on the other side of a book review!

Truth for Kids

However, it is important to notice the draining nature of full-timeContinue reading “Pastor, Jesus is enough”

My wife and I were recently away for a few days on holiday and I got some much needed time to catch up on some much needed reading, much needed because my ‘to read/review’ shelf has been bursting at the seems. We were only away for a few days and I didn’t do as muchContinue reading “Holiday musings…”

Shepherding The Pastor
Being fresh out of seminary or Bible college and heading into full-time ministry is a steep learning curve. That’s possibly one of the reasons for the training model that I was trained in which puts an emphasis on working in the local church whilst studying at seminary to give you the practical outworking of theologyContinue reading “Shepherding The Pastor”
Baptist Confession of Faith (1689)
Confessions and creeds, in some places within the global church, have been forgotten and that should sadden us. Creeds and confessions are important to help us keep our understanding of theology within the realm of orthodoxy and to help us discern good theology from heresy. Without confessions and creeds the church is more susceptible toContinue reading “Baptist Confession of Faith (1689)”
