Found in Jesus
Ironically, a kind and well-meaning Muslim gentleman inadvertently pointed me to Jesus in an attempt to dissuade me from exploring Christianity. Until that point, Jesus had not been on my agenda. Tell a child not to do something and what do they do? I went straight home and dug out a dusty Bible I…

Yearning for more
Today we live in a world of much greater uncertainty, chaos and fear. Few are saying that life is good, economically or politically. A job for life is a thing of the past. Politics changes by the hour, let alone the day or the week. I have no idea who will be Prime Minister, or even which party…

Church from the outside
Its vision is clear, but it struggles to communicate that vision: “Our noticeboard and signage was badly damaged during a storm in 2017,” explains the vicar. “Our current display is poor quality, broken and uninviting to visitors and passers-by. We urgently need a noticeboard to ensure those who…

The proposals go well beyond what the Government was required to do by the Northern Ireland (Executive Formation etc) Act 2019 and existing laws in GB and Ireland. Peter Lynas, NI…
General Election: Get ready, get set, and then go
As you all know, and to some people’s dismay, we also have a General Election to prepare for. I know, very odd timing, right? During a recent episode of BBC’s Question Time, one member of the audience stressed before a panel of MPs and journalists that she’d much rather be out buying gifts than…
