Last week I went into the The Neighbourhood studio in Greenwich for two days with a good friend of mine, Dan Moyler. Dan has cool, round, thick-rimmed glasses which he wears with an air of quiet confidence. This confidence is well-deserved; as a fledgling audio engineer he’s already working across a circuit of top London studios. Recent … More EP 2014 progress update
I’ve just come back from Ichthus Revive 2014 where we were so privileged to welcome Argentinian revivalist Carlos Annacondia and his team for his first ever visit to the UK. I’m shattered now so will keep this brief: I introduced a song called “This is the day of salvation” at the conference, so for anyone … More New song – lyrics and music on the way
The difference between networking and relationship-building is the difference between being self-serving and other-serving.
Just over three years ago (in the same month of May) I wrote a post which has received some of the heaviest traffic on this blog, perhaps barring one on the correct interpretation of Revelation 19:10. I can’t explain the popularity of the latter, but for the former I think I can have a go. … More Did the Father turn his face away? Part 2

Often though, if you’re anything like … More Singing “Our God reigns” in a world of genocide
…about What St Paul Really Said (hereafter WSPRS). I finished reading Tom Wright’s popular-level WSPRS last night. One of the points I found most delightful and helpful was how Paul’s exploration of God as Trinity (or at least some kind of plurality) didn’t take place over against Jewish monotheism or as playing into the hands of multi-deistic paganism, but … More What Tom Wright Really Said
Hi folks The good people at Crown Lane Studio offered the competition prize of a music video shoot, and I was very pleased when they announced that I had won it! I decided to go for the first song on my latest EP, called “You Are With Me”. So here’s me performing it, shot nicely … More New Music Video “You Are With Me”
This week Melvyn Bragg’s show on BBC Radio 4 In Our Time discussed The Trinity. If you’re anything like me and you enjoy a bit of history and theology, this is one not to miss. It offers a great historical introduction to the topic but advances quite far (as far as it can in 45 minutes) down … More The Trinity
As readers will know, last year I released my second EP Invitation, and was very involved with two other big releases from our church – an album of live worship, and an album of Christmas Gospel arrangements. These were exciting projects, and the EP especially pushed me to be expanding my listening and assessment of … More 2013: Music I discovered last year
