2022 Best Of…

This year’s Ramblings have had a different flavour.

In the most part, it’s because I’m in a different stage of life than before.

I’m not a youth minister… and I haven’t been vocationally since 2016.

I’m no longer a University student… I graduated last year.

I’m now a full time high school teacher, working my first year in a school teaching history and geography.

But, this is still a place for my musings on life, church, faith, ministry to youngsters and, now, teaching.

So, the prime Ramblings from 2022 were…

The test of Christian maturity you’ll inevitably face  

How long should you milk the controversy?

How aware are we of out time?

The cost of omitting the rituals in the evening

The dangers of Build-Your-Own Christianity 

You need to look at both sides of the marriage equation

Being on the other side of scripture teaching

What do you do with a bible you a throwing out?

What you gain when you don’t have to fake it anymore

What you preach on in your ministry diapers will shape your future

The best piece of teaching advice I’ve received 

Why Lamentations?

The reason that people leave that we MUST speak about

You may stop, but you don’t forget how

The secret to getting beyond the question “Was Sunday School fun this morning?”

The power of saying you agree (my most read post of 2020)

The only safe option when church and mental health collide 

Ministries of awareness and availability (what I think is the most important thing I’ve written in… years)

The perks of owning your own classroom

Why it’s time for the offering bags to return
