Dear child, many years ago, I sent my son down from heaven. He walked the earth like you are doing now. My son knew what it was like not to be accepted. He was judged wrongly. He was taunted. Yet, he showed you how to live. He lived a life of compassion and kindness. He loved and accepted everyone regardless of their sex, race, or beliefs. He was your perfect example. He then paid the ultimate sacrifice by being crucified. This is not for anything he had done but to take all

In the crowd - we held our breath - as the nails pierce into his flesh; We heard His mother's anguish, And stood in the darkness of earth. "They arrested him and broke him Then hung him there alone to die." A crown of thorns on his head King of the Jews, the sign read As we watched his body bleed Even now, crowds still mocked. "They arrested him and broke him Then hung him there alone to die." This is the day of Jesus plight Three hours, Earth saw no light The temple curtain

Our house feels like living inside a musical. Not necessarily in the song quality, but definitely in quantity. It’s hard to say "Hello," "You're welcome," or "We're halfway there" without someone breaking into song. And it’s not just music. Our days are packed with lines from films, adverts, and TV shows. “Coffee, coffee, boy, do I need coffee!” “Bacon is good for me!” I’m not sure it’s entirely normal (which is why I try to restrain myself in public), but it’s definitely n

And so, my beloved child, let me ask you more probing questions: What do you expect to find at the table? Where do your expectations come from, and why do you have them? Yes, I understand, it opens your heart again, considering these things, so let's explore them before we see what I've actually laid out for you. So, the conventional understanding might lead you to believe that you are to eat of the flesh of My Crucified Son, and that is all there is on the table, and all you

January often feels like a year in itself(!), yet this one already seems to be moving quickly. Perhaps that in itself is significant. We are living in days of acceleration—days of crossing over—and the Church is being called to maturity. A Crossing-Over People The foundation for this talk begins in Deuteronomy 6 , one of the most important passages in the Hebrew Scriptures. These words were spoken to Israel just before they crossed over into Canaan to possess the land God had

A spoken-word journey through brokenness, guilt, and the quiet ache of woundedness — yet it ultimately reveals the tender, restorative love of God. The shards of my shame, lay scattered and shattered, As I painfully sought, To piece together all that mattered. Those shards of my shame, The dregs of my dross, Sporadic and strewn, I kept account of my loss. I felt for those shards, As I groped on the ground, The needles of guilt, In a room with no sound. A room with n

A couple of weeks go we crossed over into the Hebrew year of 5786. In the Gregorian calendar we are on the count down to 2026. So we have moved (are moving) from 5 to 6. God speaks to me always through his word and sometimes through symbols and numbers and I want to unpack what I believe the Lord is saying at the beginning of this new year about the number 6 and the symbolism and pictogram associated with it: The 6th letter in the Hebrew alphabet is the Vav. The original pict

At the start of the day, consider yourself as raw material in the hands of the Master Craftsman whose aim is to transform that raw material into something useful, beautiful, and purposeful. It might be a blank page on which a new song or fresh story is written, or even a beautiful sketch created, one that is personal and meaningful to you, and one that holds significance for those around you. It may be a blank canvas, fresh and new, resting on The Great Painter's easel, where
