Facebook Holiday

I have decided recently to have a break from Facebook to devote more time to living a life instead of looking at everyone else’s!  In other words, more time for looking after self, family, work, college, friends, less time on the computer and more time for life itself.  I don’t know when I’ll be back [...]

Becoming a fence

“The Prime Minister has sat on the fence for so long that now he’s become one”  - Sir Humphrey Appleby in Yes, Prime Minister. “Perhaps you still think you ought to think out beforehand and know what you ought to do.  To that there is only one answer: you can only know and think about it by [...]

Nothing to say!

Sorry I have not written much here lately.  I’m currently at a brief stage in life where I just don’t need or feel compelled to say anything.  But I will be in action soon enough, especially on the Liberty website.

Who goes first?

Trusting wantonly do not

Once upon a time I used to be all too willing to trust people with stuff, and I came across a dangerous group on Facebook of men in America who claimed to be ‘battling’ same-sex attraction.  Ironically, their idea of ‘struggling’ with SSA was to hook up with other guys from the group and get [...]

Being careful of who I trust

Since I became a Christian in 1998, I have come across no small number of Christian academics who have written tomes on the Bible, including people like J.I. Packer, John Stott, Gordon Wenham, Martin Lloyd-Jones, Grahame Goldsworthy, Don Carson, Paul Barnett, and countless others.  Many of them have been influential in the formation of my [...]
