Keeping Up . with the Joneses. God's Word for today. Wednesday, 23 May 2012. Putting the whole Zuma "Spear" art saga into perspective. 8220;Then he will say to those on his left, ‘Depart from me, you who are cursed, into the eternal fire prepared for the devil and his angels. 42. For I was hungry and you gave me nothing to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me nothing to drink, 43. Matthew 25: 41-45 (Today's New International Version). Links to this post.

Keeping Up ... with the Joneses: June 2013
http://www.granville.co.za/2013_06_01_archive.html
Keeping Up . with the Joneses. God's Word for today. Saturday, 22 June 2013. Methodists, mission, and money. A colleague once said to me that if one is to embark on PhD studies and see them through to completion, the subject matter must be something that keeps one awake at night. In other words, to use one's research to, if not solve what the academics term "the problem statement", at least shed some light on the issue, open further conversations, and inspire others to take the next step. Sadly, we say t...

Keeping Up . with the Joneses. God's Word for today. Wednesday, 8 May 2013. Light at the end of the tunnel? Being someone who has not generally been known for being at a loss for words, to not blogging at all for a year, some readers of this post may be wondering what's happened. Did I drop off the face of the earth or something? But what made me come to the conclusion that I may be depressed? The following are some of the signs and symptoms that one could be experiencing depression:. Insomnia, early-mor...

Keeping Up . with the Joneses. God's Word for today. Friday, 4 October 2013. Some spammers have been posting rubbish in the "comments" section of this blog, so I've unfortunately had to take the step of enabling comment moderation. If you post a comment and it doesn't appear for a couple of days, it doesn't mean it didn't go through - it just means I'm a bit busy. Sorry to have to do this, but it's the only way I can keep the junk out. 4 October 2013 at 12:42. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). In Octob...

Keeping Up ... with the Joneses: Preaching "from the heart"
http://www.granville.co.za/2012/03/preaching-from-heart.html
Keeping Up . with the Joneses. God's Word for today. Sunday, 4 March 2012. Preaching "from the heart". The last couple of weeks I've been doing a preaching series around the Lenten journey, based on John van de Laar's excellent resource, Living in the Promised Land. (This book can be purchased in e-book form from John's website, http:/ www.sacredise.com/. It has been a time of blessing and challenge both for me and for our congregation at Camperdown.

A Spirit like the Wind: January 2010
http://aspiritlikethewind.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 26 January 2010. I've been a voracious reader for as long as I can remember - I'll read just about any well written book, and a large number of not so well written books too. For a somewhat shorter time, I've been a critical reader. Partly it's that every aspiring writer is told to go out and read critically, but more than that at a certain point comparisons become inevitable. Which is better, Harry Potter or Narnia? How do I predict which library shelves hold the most enjoyable books? I 'click'...

Saturday, 11 June 2011. I have a new writing project. Part of me thinks I'm trying to start too much at once, but a bigger part of me knows that the holidays stretch out with no apparent ends or constraints, so I'd better find myself something. To do Hence the writing project. Image links to blog.). Peculiar as in 'peculiar to novels' not as in 'I can't fathom it: how peculiar'. Links to this post. Tags: my crazy ideas.

A Spirit like the Wind: October 2010
http://aspiritlikethewind.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Sunday, 24 October 2010. AKA more about Charli's reading tastes than you ever wanted to know. I'm not sure which hundred books these are (they can't surely be the hundred everybody should read, or even the hundred most read), but I've seen the meme in a few places and thought it might be fun to fill in. For what I've read, italics. For what I'd like to, and both for those I'm in the process of reading. 1 Pride and Prejudice. Jane Austen (A few times.). 2 The Lord of the Rings. 4 Harry Potter series.

A Spirit like the Wind: December 2011
http://aspiritlikethewind.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, 29 December 2011. Look for me at To Count the Stars. Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Alphabetically ordered by author's surname. Books don't go onto the list until they're finished, which makes a couple of titles' difference at any given point. (And yes, some of it is fluff.) Rereads are starred. If I ever include books I read for class, I'll mark them with †. So if there's no †, I was nerdy enough to read it for fun. Adams, Douglas The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. Levin, J...
