I shocked myself this morning realising how long ago since I last blogged. Not quite sure why I’ve been silent. I guess its just that I’ve not had a great deal to say! Well, this last week, Esther had her 12 week ultrasound scan. So in case you haven’t heard the news yet, there will be [...]
Today, Esther & I are celebrating our seventh wedding anniversary! Time in one sense has flown by, but then in another it feels that we’ve been married forever. We’ve actually been married now for more than half the amount of time we’ve known each other. Marriage is a really exciting adventure and the things we [...]
It doesn’t seem like 5 minutes ago when we were getting the house ready for a new baby, but almost 3 years on, and its all change again. This weekend we’ve moved Kaity into a bigger bedroom, and put my study in what was her room. I wasn’t sure if it was worth all the [...]
Its been a very heavy snow day today. Here’s the proof:

We got back home on Saturday from New Wine. It was our first venture into the adult Christian festival world, having been regular Soul Survivorites since our teens.

I’ve now finished work for a couple of weeks, and am really looking forward to spending time with Esther and Kaity and generally relaxing! We’re heading off to New Wine tomorrow. We’ve not been before, but as we felt really old at Soul Survivor last year, thought we’d give it a go. It will also be [...]
Keeping the blog updated seems to have been one thing I haven’t had time for lately. Either that or I haven’t had anything to write about. Probably a mixture of both! Well, hopefully I can get back to some sort of regular writing. What developments in my life have their been recently? After much debate, prayer, discussion, [...]
With the season of advent being a time of waiting and preparation, I’m preparing a talk for Sunday evening on the theme of waiting, in particular looking at how John the Baptist was waiting for Jesus’ arrival. But I’ve also found it interesting how I’ve been having to wait. The biggest thing at the moment [...]
Having been um-ing and er-ing over the last few months, I’ve finally signed up to do St John’s Nottingham’s Certificate of Higher Education in Theology and Vocation. I’ve come back from Soul Survivor to find the first module’s material waiting for me – Introduction to the New Testament. I’m not sure where the course will [...]
