I wish Brengle was wrong. (No, not my Cavalier King Charles Spaniel named Brengle, I’m on about Commissioner Samual L Brengle). When I look at that quotation it makes me want to weep because I see it. Although there are always glorious exceptions to the staus quo, Brengle’s words are living themselves out today. I’d … More Glimmers of hope
“We must still prove our discipleship by our love one for the other. It is not enough to wear the uniform, to profess loyalty to Army leaders and principles, to give our goods to feed the poor and our bodies to be burned. We must love one another.

At worst, its a collection of random thoughts … More Salvationism Out Loud!

So, its back to the platform for us tomorrow after an unexpected (but welcomed) respite. All I can say is that I feel up for it. We’ve having our Commitment Sunday tomorrow (even if it is a week early…I think). The theme is ‘Broken for you’ based on the woman breaking the alabaster jar and … More Back to the helm…

It will be priced round about £6. Its a collection of thoughts and musings on and around Salvationism. Writtend to … More Announcing the immanent publication of…
So, today I’ve been decluttering. I’ve removed about 10 refuse sacks of stuff from our house.
