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…

If these Psalms are about pilgrimage, this Psalm describes a successful conclusion: “Our feet are standing in your gates, Jerusalem.” Perhaps it was sung at the end of the road, or on the way to the city in expectation of it. Like the Psalms, the New Testament urges us to look ahead to the end of…
Psalm 123-124
