The Big News

May 21st, 2010 · 1 Comment

This is hard for me to capture in blog form, news like this is more easily broken in person and then more and more detail added through casual conversations, slowly adding colour to the picture over time to help you imagine the event. I’ll give it a shot anyway.
On Monday the 26th of April, I [...]

Still Here

May 6th, 2010 · No Comments

Just thought I’d write a quick note to let you know that I haven’t lost interest in the blog or anything. Many of you may know that something big just happened in my life (the good kind of big thing). So there’s been some time away from normal schedules to celebrate and kick off a [...]

4 Gospels – A Real-Life Graph

April 14th, 2010 · No Comments

4 Gospels, originally uploaded by Apprentice Blog.

Paperback copies of individual gospels are often distributed for outreach and evangelism. The first gospel I read was Marks’s gospel, it was recommended to me because it is short and sweet – my friend says it can be read in an hour, but I’ve never timed myself. That said, [...]

Honesty Anyone?

March 4th, 2010 · 2 Comments

I bought a new phone recently and as I was reading through the manual (NNNERD!) I discovered that my new phone is equipped with a “fake call” feature.

Good Intentions

February 10th, 2010 · 1 Comment

I recently sent the following text to myself one night:
Hi Future-John, this is yourself contacting you from the past. Just letting you know the IPC costs €135. I hope the sermon went well.
The point was to remind me to collect a cheque to pay for the Irish Preacher’s Conference. I could have used the reminder [...]

Teachers, Part 1: “P”

September 17th, 2009 · 1 Comment

I’ve been thinking about doing a series of posts about the people in my life I have learned, and continue to learn from. This is the first of however many posts I manage to get out before I run out of blogging steam again.
P is one of my closest friends, I’ve known him since I [...]

Godspeed Little Bible

February 27th, 2009 · No Comments

I lost my favourite Bible on the train last week. It was a Compact ESV. I’d had it for a couple of years and it was nicely broken in and small enough to fit in my pocket so I could bring it everywhere with me. The weather was unexpectedly warm last Friday so while I [...]

Happy New Year

January 2nd, 2009 · No Comments

Short post again but it’s better than nothing. I’ve been sick since St. Stephen’s Day and aparently 12% of the country knows how I feel. I’m on the mend now but have had to take a few extra days off work. I’m also a bit fed up of wheezes and chest infections, which is what [...]
