I cannot imagine what it is like to have a member of my family linked to a serious crime. For my name and my family’s name to be linked to a deed that forever will remain marked down in history for its infamy. It seems to me that there are a great many programmes on […]
Hi, I’m Chris Neal. I’ve been a follower of Christ for 42 years but was only born again in December 1991. I remember it well, I made a decision and it was like jumping out of an aeroplane and trusting that the arms of my loving Saviour would catch me, or at least help me avoid a […]
I grew up a massive fan of the comedy duo Laurel and Hardy. When most of my mates were into ‘Morecambe and Wise’, the Two Ronnies or Little and Large, I would be watching and laughing out loud as Stan and Ollie got themselves into one ‘fine mess’ after another. Created at a time where […]
I know a man who jumped into a raging river torrent. The river was raging over the waterfall and there was someone in the water being dragged into its undercurrent. This man didn’t stop to have a conversation with anyone about what to do. He didn’t ask himself or others for that matter, about courage. […]

A few years ago I heard the Mosaic LA church leader, Erwin McManus, say “…we teach what we know, we reproduce what we are!”. Throughout my life I have seen, over and over again, just how true this statement is. When any of us live life full-on for God and let His Word shape our […]

Christmas is here! I have to confess, I have been enjoying the build up to this day for over a month, and I was often found with Wham playing from my car. ‘Last Christmas, I gave you my heart…’ Anyway, firstly let me say Happy Christmas to you. Secondly, lets read this together; The Word […]
On a dark clear night, staring at the milky-way, it is staggering to think of the awesome place we call space. It is impossible to look at the milky-way and not be impressed whilst feeling small against the night sky. New astronomical pictures from ‘deep space’ (I wonder how far is deep?) make the place […]
