Why am I telling you about Curry?

Posted by | Aug 1, 2017 | | 1 |

Ok, so I know this is out of character for this blog. I am usually contemplating theological, personal development or entrepreneurial ideas (or just posting cool things about my son), but I was talking to a few friends of mine that I know through one of my work projects and the conversation somehow turned to vegetarian food and I recommended curry as a great place to start. Wanting to make it as accessible as possible I just sat my phone in a tiny tripod next time I was making a curry and made a short video out of it. Rather than let the video collect dust on my underutilized YouTube channel I thought I would share it with you too....

A late night lesson

A late night lesson

As I write this it’s late on Friday night.  I’m tired and Seth is asleep. He is a great kid but this is one of those nights where he didn’t want to sleep and was just generally grumpy, therefore mum and dad are very much “on duty”. I happened to be the one holding him when he finally gave up the teary battle and went to sleep. While I was holding him and swaying back and forth making sure he was definitely asleep, it struck me how I am with God sometimes. Just like Seth, sometimes in my humanity...

Enjoy the...

Have you ever stopped and thought about the power of the written word? It is timeless and unlimited. You can tell your story to an unlimited number of people and if you select the right words and put them in the right order you can move the reader to decision and action. One of the very best examples of this is a short email written by Derek Sivers, the founder of cdbaby.com. While his company was growing he took a little time to change the default shipping notification email from a very boring “Your order has now been dispatched”...

In search of Copernicus

Posted by | Apr 22, 2017 | | 0 |

In Search of Copernicus Last Sabbath I had the privilege of preaching at my local Church. You can listen to the audio on this page or download the mp3 at the bottom of this post. As I was praying about what to preach I started flicking through Evernote (oh how I love Evernote… to quote one of my favorite authors,”It is like my external brain”) I came across some observations that I had made about the Sermon on the mount last year and felt impressed that it was time to expand that into a sermon. Thats exactly what I...
