Review of the year (part 1) blog posts I wish had got more traction
It’s usual for bloggers to have a look back at the year and share a top ten of their blog posts for the year or similar. I probably will do that again this year.

Update on responding to Evangelical Times concerning New Frontiers and Reformed Charismatics
Readers will know that I wrote to Evangelical Times asking them for the opportunity to respond on behalf of reformed charismatics to an article they published in November called “Why I escaped the so called calvinistic charismatics”.

Perhaps it is that I’m now past any sense of pretence that I’m still young, I cannot ignore that I’m well past the half way mark. I’m… Continue reading All the way my saviour leads me
What are the opinion polls doing?
We are just a a couple of days away from finding out the result of the General Election and finding out which, if any, of the Opinion polls have been most accurate.

May 11th
If you have any connection with Bradford, then you will get the significance of today. 39 years ago today 56 football fans, 54 Bantams supporters and 2 from Lincoln didn’t make it home from watching a football game. Within a few minutes, a horrendous fire took hold of the main stand. Those who did escape… Continue reading May 11th
PSA Taking a (possibly permanent) break from Twitter/X
Just to let those of you who follow me on Twitter/X know, that I decided yesterday to de-activate my account. It may simply be a temporary break but there’s a significant possibility that it may become permanent. A lot of people have been making similar decisions for similar reasons recently. I may talk a bit… Continue reading PSA Taking a (possibly permanent) break from Twitter/X
