Some people find it is a bit strange when a doctor is the one who is sick. In this 30 min talk I explain what it was like for me, and share a few lessons learnt. Its not a technical talk and there is no medical jargon in it at all. I was asked to give a short webinar talk to a group of doctors from the International Christian Medical and Dental Association. I speak about the surprise of finding... Read more
Today one of the UK’s largest Christian events have announced that they are the latest to decide that it is not feasible to run.  Many festivals and Bible weeks such as Newday have already made this decision.  Twenty Twenty may have passed, but the risk of Coronavirus has not.  Until large numbers of people are vaccinated it looks like restrictions in some form are here to stay. It was a joy to be able to interview an old friend who... Read more
No babies were aborted in order to make COVID-19 vaccines. But a human cell line originating from an embryo was used. God turns everything around for good. Without the greatest sin of all time, we could never have been saved. Read more
Right now 1 in 30 Londoners are infective for COVID19 and the NHS here is in crisis. What do we know about how the body fights this disease? Why do some people end up in hospital? How can a blood saturation monitor help you? What do we know about antibodies? How anti Covid spike protein antibodies are key to understanding the vaccine, monoclonal antibodies and also why some people with impaired immune systems such blood cancer don’t make antibodies and... Read more
This is the challenge to all of us when so many think we are self appointed social Media experts who know more than the scientists and politicians. It may be hard to trust in our leaders as they don’t understand whats going on. But we can trust God! Psalm 131 teaches us to still our minds. It tells us how to be still and know that He is God. “O Lord, my heart is not lifted up; my eyes are... Read more
I don’t think many of us will be sad to see the back of 2020. Many of us had high hopes for the year. My own review of 2019 and looking forward into 2020 looks a bit cute looking back on it as this turned out to be a really hard year. I did quote a Bible passage which has surely been highly relevant for many of us: Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into... Read more
At this time of year I like to share a list of my most-read articles.  I have also reviewed the year here: 2020 vision – the year in review Often there is a mix of old and new in the google analytics listings, but this year I thought I would share only the most popular articles that I actually wrote it 2020.  So with the most popular at the top, here they are: Christians must stop lying about COVID19 Jordan... Read more
Jesus taught us how to pray. It is vital his instructions about prayer are also seen in the context of his teaching concerning our relationship with Him. First we must learn how to become a Child of God before we can learn how to communicate with him every day. Whilst prayer can be of some use to someone who is not yet saved, simply praying in a ritualistic way will not help you be born again  Unless you see your prayer... Read more
In this time of lockdowns and social distancing it is too easy for us as Christians to become passive consumers of video content on Sundays, and to spend the rest of the week either holed up in our homes isolating, and working online if we can, or out doing vital work which must continue. But what of the work of the gospel? The motivation for mission is compassion.  Read more
I don’t tend to write much on here about my blood cancer journey since I now have a whole new website for that, Blood Cancer Uncensored. But a few days ago I passed a significant milestone: two years since starting chemotherapy. I am very grateful that the treatment was successful. It has not all been plain sailing from there, and I continue to face challenges with my immune system leading to infections, inflammation, and fatigue which only those who have experienced... Read more
