BIBLE THINGS
When switching from my old website to my new one, not everything made the jump and so i am creating this as a base page to stick helpful links about Bible-related things that will hopefully prove to be helpful resoources for you.
So far i have worked through the Psalms in a series i called ‘Psalmthings’, and then i did short video blogs through the book of Mark in a series called ‘Mark: My words’ and i also did a section where i looked at various of my ‘Favourite Verses’ that i enjoy and spoke a little bit about why.
In the not too distant future i will hopefully have the links back in here so you can make the most of them…

Mark, my words: Let it all really sink in
Today's Mark passage is a little bit different to what we are used to and i would encourage you to wait until you have decent reflection time before watching it - don't rush through this [...]
Mark, my words: Jesus stands before Pontius Pilate
Jesus stands before Pontius Pilate and doesn't seem to be particularly interested in defending his case [we could learn a LOT there, right?] and perhaps gives us a glimpse of the idea that following Him [...]
Mark, my words: I'm telling you I don't even know the man! Ooh, a rooster?
Wow. Boom. Things just got real people. Having just witnessed Simon Peter's 'Life or Death' declaration of absolute faithfulness to Jesus at the Last Supper, we now have this follow up story where Peter is [...]
Mark, my words: Jesus in the garden and when words count
Continuing our journey with Mark as we head towards the end of Jesus' life as He heads for the garden where He will be arrested and then later tried. i take some time to [...]
Mark, my words: Why does he keep them around?
As we continue on with Mark, we have this very interesting passage that might leave us wondering why Jesus kept the disciples around. But then if you're anything like me, you'll probably be super glad [...]
psalmthing to chew on: psalm 67
This is such a short baby of a psalm that it is worth publishing the whole thing here: 1 May God be gracious to us and bless us and make his face shine on us— 2 so [...]
Easter: wrestling with Jesus [a reblog of my good friend, Bruce Collins]
