Monthly Archives: May 2015. Yes I have read it, yes I have heard it and yes been taught it….but what was it, where was it, is it real? Was a God who could and would do ‘Immeasurably More’ confined as much to history as my football team (QPR) to the Premiership? Driven by this, and the hope I read of a few years ago in Phillip Yancey’s book ‘What good is God? 8217; I returned to Kenya, a place I have visited now for 10 years. Anything good was surely just a drop of water into Lake Victoria? And then, then...

Monthly Archives: August 2015. I remember the conversation.The church were disappointed the parent / toddler group had not worked. No one had come. In reality it has hardly surprising the youngest ‘toddler’ in the village was 14. When asked why it had been started they replied, ‘Because isn’t that the thing churches do! Put aside where was the prayer and missional thinking, this group had started (or not) for no other reason than that is what they were supposed to do. I am still reflecting on the importa...

Monthly Archives: July 2015. What a night it was. We went to an outdoor Blondie concert! Great music, memories and changing times. Gone, largely, were the booze stands and party stalls. In instead we were being sold hot chocolate and blankets! We sat and we remenist how years ago we had sang and blasted out the lyrics to ‘hanging on the telephone.’. Yes telephone, with wires, not a mobile, Facebook messenger, Skype or latest app! Then we had advanced versions that got text messaging. Oh the years. You kn...

Faith according to Mr TomTom | awyattsouthwest
https://awyattsouthwest.wordpress.com/2015/03/24/faith-according-to-mr-tomtom
Faith according to Mr TomTom. I say faith according to Mr Tom but more accurately I mean Mr Tom Tom or Mrs SatNav (mine has a ladies voice.) But what do I mean? I have always prided myself (I know pride can be wrong) on the fact that once I had driven somewhere once, complicated places twice, I knew the way. People commented upon it. But then recently, when travelling north, my passenger commented on its use. Did I not know the way yet? We had after all been to the same place many times. When was the las...

CWM Assembly; Reflections. Well that’s it for the next four years. The CWM Assembly in Jeju draws to a close. The days and weeks ahead will be ones of reflection, hoping to form a personal view, the months and years will decide what the results have been. At this time what can be said? It has been a time of new contacts, of friendships made, and hopefully none lost! We have had Bible studies that were relevant and inspiring, others that…….we’ll personally I thought were not. June 23, 2016. We are on our ...
