I’m Giving You a Heads-up! My latest book, titled To the New Creation: Living out our New Identity, has just gone live on Amazon. And you have the opportunity to get your electronic copy at a DISCOUNT! But more on that at the end of this post :-). To the New Creation: Living Out Our New Identity I’m not sure if I’ve mentioned this elsewhere, but I used to be a ‘Christian Counsellor’, which just meant that I learned how to…

Are you needing to touch the Lord in a new and fresh way? Is your time with Him dry? Do you feel like you just can’t break through? Has the scripture become just ink on paper to you? Well, there’s hope! Using the scripture to behold (gaze into) the Lord can be just like opening all the windows and doors in your house when it’s been stuffy and closed in. It’s like letting the fresh breeze, the fragrance of blossoming…
Recently Derek and I re-watched the 2005 movie Walk The Line – starring Joaquin Phoenix and Reese Witherspoon in the true story of Johnny Cash and June Carter. It’s an old favourite of ours and full of wonderful songs that we love. In the story of the movie, Johnny was besotted with June from the second he laid eyes on her. After then, he only had eyes for her and he continually pursued her. He was never going to give…
Below is a blog from a dear brother, Erroll Mulder. I hope you will enjoy as I did. I have enjoyed listening to RSG (Afrikaans) radio for many years, and got to appreciate the input of senior radio producer and journalist, Suna Venter, whose body was discovered in her flat in Fairland, Johannesburg, very recently. Just thirty two, she had been diagnosed with a cardiac condition known as Stress Cardio-Myography or ‘Broken […] via WERE YOU BRAVE?? — Erroll…
Sorry I’ve been quiet for a couple of weeks but we’ve had two different families from NSW staying with us over the last two long weekends for Easter and now Anzac Day. We’ve had an awesome time and have been kept very busy with site-seeing, hanging out, walking the dog and entertaining the kids, and lots of eating! However, I wanted to post my final contribution to the 3rdrace.org series on the Lord’s Eternal Purpose, which for the month…
Someone recently asked this question on Facebook. I thought it was a good question because there’s so many different types of gatherings that are calling themselves ‘organic’ which clearly are not. And so this was my reply with some added thoughts based on my experience and understanding. To me, true and authentic organic church is simply, Christ. In ‘organic’ church, Christ is the Head and the life of the church. That’s what organic church is – His life. It is…
Sometimes when I imagine what the gospel sounds like to someone who’s never heard it before, I guess it would sound a little like a comic book, like science fiction. Accepting that Jesus Christ, the Son of God, came into time from outside of time, Eternity, and saved the human race sounds like a science fiction movie. An awesome one, at that. But do we realise it is the original and authentic, historically true and eternal reality from which all…
In case you don’t follow the blog of Milt Rodriguez, I want to share with you this brother’s latest post. This post is part of a series called “Is Christ Enough?”. I pray that we are reminded over and again, how big and all sufficient our Lord is. Click here to go to the blog of Milt Rodriguez.
This is a wonderful little movie based on true events concerning the history of Scotland and England. So because this is based on historical events, this post is not a spoiler alert and I would thoroughly recommend watching the movie. It is available on Netflix and Youtube. Basically, in the 1200’s Scotland had a large and heavy stone they used in or as a coronation chair for Scotland’s monarchs. There are legends surrounding the origin of the stone but whatever it’s origin, it…
