Now despite my love of comics, this post is not about Thor from the Avengers, it’s rather referencing the 1990’s pop star MC Hammer. Why? Because he had a hit with a song called ‘Pray’ and some of the lyrics in the chorus went as such ‘We’ve got to pray just to make it today’. […]
Last Sunday night we held the first of our ‘God, Goats & Games‘ evenings. It was a fun packed time with everyone getting really stuck into the event. At the Robot Wars ‘G,G,G’ our director Tim Gough used the film Jurassic Park to illustrate different ways we can react to monstrous situations in our lives. […]
I used to be in a Christian school’s work drama team and we performed many different sketches in our time. Some really good, others quite cheesy. One that we performed was called ‘Hands’. It spoke of how we can use our hands to build and create or damage & destroy. To love or to hate. […]
I wanted to write in today’s blog post about how, as Christians, we are not designed or made to do life alone. God is a triune God. He is Father, Son & Holy Spirit. Before anything had been spoken into life by God, He was in perfect relationship, the 3 in 1 God of all […]
As is a common theme, the blog post is named after a song. This time from Hillsong United’s album ‘United we stand’. I’ve put the video from the album below for you to listen to. You’ll understand why I chose the title as you read the post… This coming Sunday evening at Llandudno Youth for […]
I’ve recently been listening back to some albums that God has spoken through in the past to me. It’s good to revisit times when God impacted your life.

In Japanese culture, there is an ancient art form called Kintsukori or kintsugi. This is where a broken vessel is put back together with a colourful lacquer or a precious metal, normally gold. A successful piece of art is where the finished work shows that the piece of pottery is even more beautiful for having […]
The title is a bit like ‘Location, location, location’, but it’s all about the ‘DIY SOS’ that we need, but so much more impactful and intense. This was the theme for the Youth for Christ National Conference. ‘Renovate’ being the exact title. The word ‘Renovate’ comes from the Latin verb novare which means to make […]
So, as we bid a final farewell to 2017 and look ahead to 2018; I thought it would be good to be reminded through the lyrics of the hymn ‘Standing at the portal‘ of God’s goodness and faithfulness. To take all of the fears, trepidations and excitement we have as we bravely face another year […]
So the joke goes like this – “How does Good King Wenceslas like his pizza?” “Deep pan, crisp & even!” I can already hear the agonised groans. It’s not like everyone hasn’t had their fill of terrible jokes courtesy of Christmas crackers everywhere…. Yes today, the 26th December is St Stephen’s Day, or ‘Boxing Day‘ […]
