Letter from the Manse (145)

Thought provoking, biblical, often topical but always worth a read!

  • Single mindedness

    Recently I read the autobiography of one of the most famous footballers of all time – Stanley Matthews. A man famed for his silky dribbling skills and ball control, the first ever ‘Footballer of the Year’.

  • We would see Jesus?

    I’ve been searching the internet to buy a present for Christian friends who have two small children.  I was looking for a book they could use to introduce their children to the Bible: a “children’s Bible”, or at least a book of Bible stories. 

  • The house of mourning

    One verse has been often in my mind over the past weeks.  “It is better to go to the house of mourning than to go to the house of feasting, for this is the end of all mankind, and the living will lay it to heart” (Ecclesiastes 7:4)
