Random Quote - CS Lewis

Read an interesting quote today that I think probably sums up a lot of my close friendships and probably a lot of christian guys...

"Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another. What! You too? I thought I was the only one!" 
CS Lewis

There's one of my friendships that it might as well have been written for - and its a friendship thats been one of most profitable and spiritually encouraging I've ever had - I'm glad it was based on 'mutual interests' !

Thompo's Stag

He came, he saw, he got trailed...











Hanging round public parks, on a Saturday night, in an outfit like that -  and Castlereagh Baptist let him preach!? What is the world coming to?

Random Quote - Bono

As the band was just starting off many years ago, Bono wrote the following words to his father, who just recently passed away; 

"[God] gives us our strength and a joy that does not depend on drink or drugs. this strength will, I believe, be the quality that will take us to the top of the music business. I hope our lives will be a testament to the people who follow us, and to the music business where never before have so many lost and sorrowful people gathered in one place pretending they're having a good time. I is our ambition to make more than good music"

Quoted from "Walk on: The Spiritual Journey of U2" by Steve Stockman

Worship songs arnt for blokes?

Matt Redman comments on someone quoted as saying that worship songs arnt for blokes. Don't know what I think - I don't have a problem telling Jesus that I love him! Its quite interesting though what Matt says about making sure that the language in our worship songs is saying exactly what we mean it to.

What about them apples..?



I would like to take this opportunity to offer the right hand of fellowship to McDermott, welcoming him into the Cult of Mac - congratulating him on a life changing decision to turn his back on his wicked Windows ways and embrace the Apple!

Fools Gold

Fools Gold has a post on something rather topical in Glenmachan - doesn't offer too much at the minute but as people's comments build up it might be quite interesting.
