When you go to the GP (in a lot of the UK anyway) most doctor’s surgeries have multiple doctors. Having multiple doctors is fine, until you never see the same doctor twice for the same issue, it means that you’re often explaining the situation over and over again and getting different approaches to treatment.

Saturday Snippets (November 1)
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…
Losing Our Words: The Decline of Reading and the Rise of Reels
There’s a quiet crisis happening in our world today. It’s not new, but it’s growing—and it’s changing how we think, how we feel, and how we follow Jesus. It’s the slow decline of reading. Fewer and fewer people are reading books, especially people in the younger generations. Attention spans are shrinking. Deep thought is givingContinue reading “Losing Our Words: The Decline of Reading and the Rise of Reels”

Understanding the Bible’s Unified Story
For many Christians, Bible reading can sometimes feel like flipping through a family photo album without any names or dates written on the back. The stories are familiar, the characters beloved, but how it all fits together? That’s where things get fuzzy. Yet, the Bible wasn’t written as a collection of random inspirational quotes orContinue reading “Understanding the Bible’s Unified Story”
