In the final of the series I reflect on 1 Peter 1: 3-9 and how our hope is secure, no matter what life throws at us, because our hope is not dependent on this world or on us, but on God who keeps it safely in heaven for us.
I hope and pray that this series has been a blessing to you, and I wish you a truly joyous Eastertide.

In John 21: 1-11 Peter remembers, or rather rediscovers the moment where his whole life changed in Luke 5: 1-11. I reflect on that moment and what we can take from it.
If you're not ready to come to God because you've messed up in some way and don't think God would welcome you, if you're trying to sort out some aspect of your life, some sin before coming to God, then this video is for you.
I reflect on Ezekiel 37: 1-14. Where is hope when all hope seems lost?
I reflect on the Ancient Israelites escape from Egypt in Exodus 14: 10-31 and the God who fights for us.
I reflect on Genesis 22: 1-16 in which God tests Abraham, asking him to sacrifice his Son Isaac, and ponder what this has to do with the cross.
I reflect on the first of the Easter Vigil readings, Genesis 1. How does creation relate to the cross and our future hope?
I'm doing a week's worth of reflections looking through the Paschal (Easter) Vigil readings at reasons we have as Christians for hope. Here I introduce what I'm doing and why.
This got me thinking; does understanding a backstory equate to having to accept their actions? And in our own lives, where we usually cast ourselves in the role of the hero, are we actually the villain?
Earlier this Summer I went on holiday to Edinburgh which is a beautiful city, probably one of the few I would consider moving to. And if you’ve been to Edinburgh or know much about it you will know that the city is built around Holyrood Park, within which are a number of rather large hills, the largest of which is known as Arthur’s Seat. Pretty much wherever you go in Edinburgh you can see these peaks jutting out above buildings or between streets. There is pretty much no getting away from them, they so dominate the skyline.

AuthorI was raised in an Anglican Church, went to a Youth Club run by an Evangelical Church and attended a Baptist Church while at Uni and as such my faith has been influenced by these traditions into what I hope is a more rounded viewpoint. Categories
