  • re-branded?

    There’s an interesting article on the BBC News website about brands that have crossed over to become household names for the item we use: think ‘hoover’, ‘jacuzzi’, even ‘escalator’, ‘google’ and ‘yo yo’! The suggestion is that while the transition of a brand name to becoming a generic name suggests success it actually can sound the…

  • MOTs and Posters – find a link if you can!

    This morning I dropped my car off at a garage for its annual MOT test. I don’t think that there is anything major wrong with it, but I always leave it with a sense of apprehension in case there is something terminal or expensive hidden under the bodywork.   As I was walking home I noticed…

  • troubled by halloween

    Halloween troubles me. Not because of the ghosts, ghouls, witches and pumpkins. Nor because I fear that it is a gateway to hell. Not even because it encourages extortion (‘trick or treat?’). What troubles me is that I am not sure of the best way to respond as a Christian. Some churches go all out to…

  • co incidental music

    Twice this week I have had unusual experiences with music. On Sunday I was asked to speak at a church up the road in Ipswich. I was not leading the service and didn’t know what songs would be selected. I was listening to (and singing along to) a CD of worship songs and was struck…

  • almost done

    Following last week’s Work In Progress bloggage I have a progress update. The renovation of my little car is almost done. What do you think? It has gone from this To this It may look finished but there is an important detail that has yet to be done. When I was disassembling the car prior…

  • being pointed

    Do you ever get those moments when you are aware that you are not in complete control of your life? I am not talking about those times when you feel that your life is out of control. Rather I mean those moments when you realise that God has been at work behind the scenes gently…

  • Story

    A brief poetic bloggage from a coffee shop. If yesterday is history And tomorrow’s a mystery Today is His story That He blends with my story Be blessed, be a blessing

  • escamgelism

    I am a bit worried about a friend of mine. He’s on holiday in Cyprus and has lost his bag that contains his mobile phone, his wallet and other important items. He has managed to find an internet cafe and sent me an email asking for my help. If I can send him some money…

  • Bearing up

    Don’t try to analyse what’s going on in my head – that’s dangerous territory – but this morning I was reminiscing about the teddy bear I had as a child. His name was ‘Teddy’ (I was as original then as I am now). He was given to me when I was born and I had…

  • pointing out the obvious

    I am fascinated by these arrows. I came across this image long ago, when I was in my first church, and it has remained with me ever since as a powerful image with a significant message for churches. When you look at them, what do you see? Red arrows pointing outwards? Is that all that…
