Leeland...

I can remember listening to Delirious for the first time and thinking, this is just brilliant, moving, powerful - in short, a whole bunch of adjectives. A friend of mine, David Crisp, who is currently playing bass for Starfield, turned me on to a band named Leeland - who, well, have left me short of...

Online Strategy...

OK. After much debating and internal turmoil about how to launch my online presence, here is what I have come up with: I am going to be using my blog to discuss everything I am passionate/thinking about. I have launched a little site designed to give you an extra insight into my thought process going...

Confessions of a Pastors’ Wife...

My wife Lori has entered the blogging world (before me if you can believe it). I think her blog is just amazing? But don’t take my word for it, check it out for yourself. confessionsofapastorswife.com

Unconditional Love of God...

This morning I spoke at Lifecentre, my home church, about the love of God (thanks to The Vine for the graphics). I truly enjoyed speaking - but the whole process to get to the message was more of an ordeal that I expected. My poor wife Lori. I think she heard/re-heard the entire message ten times before...

Chasing Cars...

I love the song Chasing Cars by Snow Patrol. It’s so great; I could listen to it over and over again. Just like the song says, “Would lay with me and just forget the world?” Today just take a minute and sit or lie with someone and just forget all of your stresses your struggles forget the world;...

Envy...

Envy is the unhappy feeling of wanting somebody else’s success, good fortune, qualities or possessions or to desire something possessed by somebody else. Envy is not something I usually struggle with. I am generally a contented person who enjoys what I have but if it were gone I would survive. However...

Let Your Light Shine...

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your...

Beauty In Your Eyes...

Why is weight such an issue for most women? Why do we allow what we look like on the outside to dictate how we feel on the inside? Women are the most beautiful creatures on the planet. God made us to be attractive to men. Our basic anatomy turns men on in a way that is natural and normal. I don’t...

Does Your Past Haunt You?...

I just did this silly email forward with a friend. It was one where you had to answer questions about things that you have or have not done in your life and each thing had a score. The higher your score the worse things you had done in your life and the lower the score the more innocent or inexperienced...

Connection Is Everything For Me...

I have realized recently that one of my greatest strengths is connecting deeply with people. By strength I don’t mean something I am good at, by strength I mean something that makes me feel strong. Something that makes me feel alive. Today a friend came over and we didn’t have that moment, that connectedness...
