 | Their day, our day
Verses written for Israel and the New Testament church, with brief comments relating to today |
 | Parachute Music Festival (Christian?)
Flicking through the parachute music festival magazine is like entering an alternative reality where up is down and down is up. All you see are staunch faces, satanic imagery and every outward expression of the world's music industry, just wrapped with... 2009-07-21 | Category: christian-culture | View all in category |
| The fine line of cross-denominational fellowship
Looking at the value of true cross-denominational fellowship, as opposed to politically motivated ecumenicalism |
 | A billion transistors per human
Soon a ubiquitous network of over a trillion devices including cell phones, computers, sensors and scanner nodes, will mesh together to start harvesting real-time data about us and the world we live in. |
 | Global financial crisis and the New World Order
Will the financial crisis become a category five storm? What will the new world order look like? How will all this change affect the lives of Christians? |
| Israel, Gaza and the Palestinians
It’s truly amazing the polar opposite views I’m receiving in my inbox as Christians write, or forward, perspectives on Israel, Gaza and the Palestinians. If the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was ever neutral ground amongst Christians, it is rapidly... |
 | Evangelicals and Plain Folk
Anabaptists, Mennonites, Hutterites, or the rather endearing title of Plain Folk. All labels with close connections to one another and various nuances of meaning; yet I’m not sure if the people at Rocky Cape wear any of them completely. 2008-12-30 | Category: christian-living | View all in category |
 | Outflow
It has been said that the only difference between The Red Sea and The Dead Sea, is that, while both have water flowing into them, only The Red Sea has water flowing out. Have you ever experienced filling yourself up with Christian teaching... 2008-12-13 | Category: christian-living | View all in category |
| Ambitious service
In 50 Years In The Church Of Rome, Charles Chiniquy comments that pride is the daily bread of the Catholic priest. But is it the daily bread of the Catholic priest only, or does this sickness permeate the protestant and evangelical worlds also? 2008-11-18 | Category: christian-living | View all in category |
 | Modern Israel in prophecy?
The other day a friend forwarded me an email by Jerry Golden from The Golden Report , a portion of which included the following: |
 | Promise Keepers
I think I’d imagined Promise Keepers as some kind of big overgrown, slightly cringey, Christian men’s support group; a thing you might go to if you were having trouble with your marriage or something. I’d also lumped it into the whole American style... |
| Anxiety attack
Have you ever had anxiety build up to the point where it feels like you’re going to completely crumble? Where you have a permanent headache and there is a sickening sensation through your whole body? |
 | War with Iran?
The way I see it our world has two distinct futures; one if Israel does NOT attack Iran’s nuclear facilities, and a very different one if they do. At last week’s lunch with Robert Fisk I wasn’t going to miss the opportunity to ask for his estimate of... |
 | The beast now
Back in the early nineties I imagined a time when everything would start rapidly changing. A time preceding the great tribulation when the normal state of things would start to morph into end times. |
| Natural versus spriritual
There is terrible confusion in Christendom today between the natural and the spiritual. Recently my daughter came home and told me about hearing someone speak of a girl who felt called to be a missionary, yet was wrestling between this and her love of... 2008-06-27 | Category: christian-culture | View all in category |
| Balancing Christian life
For many years of my Christian life I struggled to understand the correct balance between what you might call ‘the radical Christian life’ and, for lack of a better expression, the ordinary Christian life. 2008-02-09 | Category: christian-living | View all in category |
| The mustard tree
The kingdom of heaven is like a mustard seed…the least of all the seeds; but when it is grown it is greater than the herbs and becomes a tree so that the birds of the air come and nest in its branches. (Matt 13:31-32) |
| The distant church
What did I see today? Am I wrong, because it seemed like I saw a man drowning. Desperately pulling out all the old catch phrases that used to work, trying to hide even from himself that the old magic had gone. |
