In this blog, my wife, Becky writes about her experiences over the last year. She shares her personal experiences of what it has been like being a minsters wife and having a third child. This brave and unique account offers insight into the experiences of someone often overshadowed by her husbands work.
I didn’t become a Christian by going to church. I started going out of what I’d now call spiritual insurance. You know, just in case. I figured if I clocked in enough Sunday hours, maybe I’d earn some favour at the pearly gates. Like St. Peter would be standing there with a clipboard going, “Alright…
Ever notice how your greatest gift is also your biggest liability? Like when someone says, “I didn’t mean to insult my boss… I’m just passionate!” Right. That’ll go well in the HR meeting. In this blog, I unpack how the very strengths God gives us—like loyalty, leadership, or even a quick wit—can become our downfall…
“If you love me, you will keep my commandments.” These words from Jesus in John 14:15 are both a comfort and a challenge. We often speak about love in soft, sentimental terms—but Jesus connects love to obedience. Not a legalistic obedience, but one that flows naturally from relationship. To follow Jesus isn’t just about belief;…
We all do it. We see someone in gym gear headed to Greggs and think, “Vain!” Spot Christmas lights up in October? “Ridiculous.” Hear a complicated coffee order and brace ourselves for a TED Talk on oat milk? “Pretentious.” But what if those snap judgements are more than just funny observations? What if they’re barriers…
Ever planned a lads’ summer holiday only to end up uninvited to a couples’ winter getaway in Nottingham? Just me? Cool. Turns out, the disciples had their own version of missing the memo—Jesus rose from the dead just like He said, and they went back to fishing like it was business as usual. In John…
What if the resurrection of Jesus isn’t just a matter of blind faith, but actually the most common sense conclusion to the events of Easter morning? In this week’s reflection on John 20:1–18, we explore how grave cloths, a folded napkin, and even a few hilariously unnecessary warning labels can reveal something profound about belief,…
The people lining the road into Jerusalem on Palm Sunday weren’t just being festive—they were desperate. Waving palm branches and shouting “Hosanna!” wasn’t a polite welcome; it was a cry for rescue. It was the sound of people under pressure, longing for restoration. And Jesus heard them. He came not on a war horse, but…
Lent isn’t just about giving up sweets or caffeine for 40 days—it’s about learning to depend on God. When Jesus went into the wilderness, He wasn’t just enduring hunger; He was facing real temptation—the same kinds we face every day. Would He take control or trust the Father? Would He seek power without pain? Would…
We often expect God to show up in dramatic, earth-shattering ways—flashes of lightning, angelic choirs, undeniable miracles. But in Luke 5, Jesus begins His public ministry not with spectacle, but with… a fishing trip. Simon Peter had already heard about Jesus. He had even seen Him heal his own mother-in-law. But none of that made…
