“Hey Sticks,” Charlie said into the phone, using my nickname, “what can you tell me about the Holy Spirit?” Charlie was twenty years old at the time and had grown up in a churched environment all his life, including a Christian school. He’d just been through a bit of a difficult patch, so I was […]
Hey friends, As some of you aware, the Holy Spirit has had me writing again. And this time, he’s had me writing about … well … himself! Called Spirited, the book bears the subtitle, Ordinarily spectacular everyday life in the Holy Spirit. This book takes a similar format to Favoured. That is, seven parts with […]
Dear blog-readers, It’s been a while since I posted. The past couple of months have been hectic for Julie and me with many seminars and people contacts. This has been both exhilarating and somewhat saddening. Exhilarating, because as we’ve shared the message of Father’s favour, people have ‘got it’! They have received and appropriated the […]
Dear Reader, Yesterday’s email concludes the Favoured blog posts. Whether you’ve been on the journey for the duration, or you’ve just popped in every now and then, thank you. It’s been an honour to share them with you. Watch this space! Holy Spirit has already been speaking with me about what’s next … it’s just […]

Little children naturally know how to ask […]

[Part 7, Chapter 48] “Anything extra precious here, mate?” Julie was out, and I was alone with the removalists, left with a responsibility beyond my care factor. Thankfully, I remembered. “Oh, yes, there is one thing.” I pointed out the antique porcelain washing set Julie inherited from her Granny. “This is really precious,” I stressed. […]

[Part 7, Chapter 47] “I’m sorry, he’s been moved to the hospice.” That was a shock. I was visiting my mate Wegs. He’d been chairman when I was senior pastor at Para Vista, and we’d enjoyed some rich times together. Now, here he was in this ward from which they say there is no going […]

[Part 7, Chapter 46] Favour is always the Red Sea, not the Dead Sea. Located in the Middle East, both seas have water flowing into them. What distinguishes them is that the Dead Sea has no outlet. The minerals flowing in have nowhere to go, and as a result, it has become so full of […]

[Part 7, Chapter 45] “Cuddle? Cuddle?” Our two-year-old grandson has us worked out. As a normal toddler, you could sometimes spell his name as Cheeky, or Rabbit! But these little people are smart. Whenever he’s done something impish, he looks around, holds his arms out, and goes, “Cuddle?” and knows there will be no reprimand […]
