I feel that the Lord and I agree on this. I will cease to travel and do gigs when a) I realise that I am not physically or mentally up to giving my very best when doing them. b) When I cease to enjoy doing them and stop getting excited at the thought of putting them in my diary. After last Tuesday’s praise party…I realise neither of these criteria are close at present. Praise God! So whilst I am feeling rather excited about the coming year and still visiting a few churches doing my ‘when the road is rough and steep testimony concerts’ and ‘all age praise parties and celebrations,…

I love reflecting on the past, but I’ve learned that I must not live in it. I must keep moving on to find out what God has got for me to do today Before you listen to the song, ask God to speak to you through these words from Scripture. Don’t worry too much about the tunes, I’m just putting the words to simple easy to sing and play melodies which will hopefully help the words sink in! For any interested. Please do take a look by clicking below I’m writing these simple Scripture songs as a resource. Please do use and teach them as both old and young can…

And I am so grateful for your prayers and the Lord providing me with inspiration and most of all, lots of energy. This ‘children’s’ praise party was a non-stop hour of very lively music….in a very warm environment, in every sense of the word! Roughly 12 out of the 14 songs I’d chosen had actions…which of course I had to teach first, and 2 of those songs (Bigger Barn and Wolfie) I had to use the CD tracks because there was no way that I was not going to join in those actions! Lots of lovely children and also so many really nice, very responsive and very helpful leaders…which really…

Some Christians love arguing and debating about issues that have little to do with people getting saved. Me… I just prefer to preach Christ crucified. Before you listen to the song, ask God to speak to you through these words from Scripture. Don’t worry too much about the tunes, I’m just putting the words to simple easy to sing and play melodies which will hopefully help the words sink in! For any interested.

Although these days I would be classed far more ancient than modern (in every sense) I praise God that He has still allowed me good health, bags of energy and it seems that I can still be a little over active in some peoples presence! Anyway, a Church must have heard that I am fit and raring to go because…this adventurous church (at the recommendation of their children’s leader) have invited me next Tuesday at 10am to join them and minister at their summer camp. Wow! They also must have realised that I still have a bit of voice, guitar strumming ability and hopefully anointing because I have not been…
