Have we Forgotten Them?
I went to a conference the other day, about the transformation that God’s love can bring into our lives, bringing us hope and life, even in our struggles. It’s what I’m learning in my everyday life. Sure, the Christian life isn’t easy. But God is incredible. And I’m learning that the hope and life HeContinue reading “Have we Forgotten Them?”
Remembering to Care
How are you doing with lockdown? It got to me a bit the other day. I guess it probably gets to you a bit sometimes, too. It’s so unnatural not to be allowed to go out, or see people we love.

August 2007, Manila, Philippines On Thursday evening, CRBC hosted their Drop-In again. It wasn’t as packed as last week (they had a lot of people last week, praise the Lord), but still busy.

Memories from the Philippines…
If it’s ok with you, I want to experiment a bit on the blog. I’ve been toying with an idea, and I think the Lord has been encouraging me to go with it. Almost ten years ago now, I went to Manila in the Philippines on a mission trip for around five weeks. While IContinue reading “Memories from the Philippines…”
