One of the things that I love most about hanging out with men is that we can generally sniff out a fake a mile off. We have all had that mate who is full of it, the minute he opens his mouth we can instantly tell that he is trying to big himself up and […]
In June of this year, we were back! The Gathering happened! Around 1500 men were in ‘a field near Swindon’ and I would say the Spirit of God hovered over that place for the entire weekend. Without any shadow of a doubt, the power of the Gospel was palpable. Whilst we were setting up the […]
Recently I have had several guys come up to me and ask for help. That is a miracle. It so often does not happen. Most of us go in on ourselves whenever we feel threatened, or we feel out of control. But this is also the very reason why we do men’s ministry. None of […]
So here at CVM we have been fully focussed on reaching our mates with the Gospel for a very long time. We have always been supporters of encouraging men into men’s groups, and we are constantly looking for creative ways to resource and equip you to share your life and your faith with your mates. […]
One of the best things about being part of the team at CVM is being part of a ministry which is not ashamed to keep Gospel proclamation front and centre of our cause. We live in a world that is literally falling apart at its seams. We have been very used to using terms like […]
It has been becoming more and more obvious to me that we are currently standing at a crossroads. We are living in very turbulent times and how we react right now is probably more important than we might think. When I read my Bible, and particularly some of the New Testament bits, I am so […]
On the day of writing this blog I woke up at 5am. To give you a bit of context, we are an early rising household but even for me 5am is early. I felt refreshed, I felt as though I had genuinely had enough sleep, but I also had a slightly unnerving thought running through […]
Dads, this was our moment! It was our chance to shine! We were thrust into a world that we did not see coming, and our families looked to us as they had never done before. And we completely bossed it… A recent report by the Fatherhood Institute has revealed some really interesting outcomes from the […]
The world has gone mad. I mean, it is literally off the scale, and I don’t think this is all to do with COVID, I think this has been happening for a long time. Now, don’t get me wrong, I believe that COVID has changed a lot of things in our lives, and I reckon […]
These are strange days, are they not? A few days ago, I went to have my haircut. As with everywhere else that we go, the hairdressers is now COVID-safe. I am sitting in front of the mirror with my mask on, the hairdresser also has a mask and a visor on. We talk, small talk […]
