Hi folks! Here’s a new track for you to enjoy! I had a lot of fun writing and producing this track – especially because I was able to get Louise Gibbens to sing and Tim Boniface to play his horns! Watch this space for news of my forthcoming acoustic album to feature many new songs!
Hi folks. Seeing as it’s that time of year, how about a present? I’ve just uploaded a new song to Soundcloud called “You Are With Me” and I’m making it completely free to download!

I was reviewing the article I posted up here some time ago, Of the Making of Many Bible Translations…, and I realised that there is an update I can add. Currently I’ll leave it here in the form of this blog but an extra paragraph might make its way into the article soon… I recently … More The New English Translation
Today the Coalition for Marriage posted a blog in which it revealed the shambolic nature of the Government’s supposed ‘listening exercise’ in making its decisions about the proposed changes to marriage laws. It’s worth reading. I post it here again in an attempt to increase awareness of the huge bias on the part of the … More Redefining Marriage and the Government Sham

It’s perhaps something of a testament to my craziness that at the same time as, and since long before, reading Page’s book, I’ve had The Ressurection of the Son of God by N. T. Wright on the go.

Reflecting as I have been on the various arguments that often run to and fro … More Relational versus Functional approaches to the Bible, Theology, and God
All of us face difficulty at one time or another. It takes lots of forms: illness, financial difficulty, busyness, relational breakdown – and often a combination of these adds to the overall stress. This is true for everybody. There is no one who gets scott free of this! We have all wished from time to … More Dealing with difficulty in a transformed life
In Ephesians 1 (well and 2 & 3…and in fact the whole letter) Paul presents a stunning picture of the cosmic reign of Christ and how it plays out into history now. We find in this letter some of the most amazing statements of His rule and authority, stemming from what He has done for … More “All things under His feet” – what does this look like?
