Sermons
This blog post is based on a recent sermon I preached on Psalm 46, exploring God as our true refuge in an uncertain world. Have you ever noticed how much of our lives is built on things that are far less secure than we think? Have you ever stopped to

Social Media
I’ve spent a lot of time on LinkedIn recently for various reasons. If I’m honest, I can’t say I’ve found the experience enjoyable. If you spend any amount of time on the platform, you soon come to realise one thing: there is a lot of noise.
Book Reviews
As 2025 comes to an end, I thought I would take the opportunity to reflect on the books I most enjoyed reading this year and those I would recommend to others. There was a lot to choose from, so I whittled the list down to just five books. Note: these

You know when you get your iPhone passcode wrong after several attempts and it locks you out for 10 minutes? And if you keep putting in the wrong code after that, it will lock you out for over an hour? Well, that happened to me the other day as I
In a previous blog post, we looked at how Psalm 22 and Matthew 27 show us that God is not distant in our suffering. As we read both of these passages, we may get the sense that suffering seems unjust and chaotic—filled with mockery, violence, abandonment. I suppose, in
Check out the introduction to this below: Introduction: Understanding Suffering Through a Christian LensSuffering is a profound and universal experience, often raising the question: “Why would a good God allow it?” By exploring Psalm 22 and Matthew 27, we see that Scripture offers a transformed view of suffering—one that
I’m not one for making blog posts like this, but this year is a big year for me. How so? Yesterday, I turned 30. There’s a lot to look back on, and I have a lot to be thankful for. Reflecting on where I was when I entered
Suffering is a profound and universal experience, often raising the question: “Why would a good God allow it?” By exploring Psalm 22 and Matthew 27, we see that Scripture offers a transformed view of suffering—one that points to God’s presence, purpose, and ultimate victory through Christ.
Over the past few years, I have been on an ongoing quest to find a better social media experience. My journey begins when I originally left Twitter (now X) in light of the whole Musk purchase, which for me marked a turning point in how centralised platforms wield influence. It
In an increasingly isolated world, third spaces—places of connection beyond home and work—are disappearing. This post explores the church’s unique role as a forgotten third space, offering not just community, but hope, purpose, and true belonging in a lonely age.
A kids’ show about cartoon dogs taught me more about adult friendships than I expected. Bluey's “Café” episode reflects how grown-ups form bonds—slowly, awkwardly, and often thanks to our kids. Here’s what I’ve learned about connection, overthinking, and taking the lead.
The following is a modified version (with a little help from ChatGPT) of a Bible study on Matthew 6:12 that I led during one of our midweek church gatherings. I felt compelled to share it here, as I believe there's so much we can all learn about
Adolescence is the British crime drama everyone’s talking about. It explores toxic masculinity, incel culture, and online radicalisation, sparking urgent discussions about social media’s role in shaping modern boyhood. Can we strike a balance between online freedom and safeguarding against harm?
Technology is deeply embedded in our lives, but how should Christians engage with it? God, Technology, and the Christian Life by Tony Reinke explores a biblical perspective on technology, its benefits, and ethical challenges. This book urges us to use technology wisely under Christ’s Lordship.
AI can be a helpful tool, but are we relying on it more than God’s Word? While ChatGPT can assist with Bible study, it lacks divine authority. The Bible is living and active—AI is just a tool. Let’s ensure technology supports, not replaces, our pursuit of Scripture. Who has priority in your life?
