Greetings.

As a woman of faith, I am on a journey to plumb the depths of the Word of God and our Christian beliefs. I want to explore how to best live the life worthy of our calling (Ephesians 4:1).

Follow my ponderings as I dig deep in my examination of this life of faith. You might notice that I’m not inclined to pull any punches as I question our religious preconceptions, or the value and place of church and it’s teachings within that life. My hope is that together we would all come to know God intimately, and thus become empowered as we come to know why we believe what we believe.

If this is your first visit, you can start from the beginning post here if you like.

  • Digital Nagging

    Is it just me, or is anyone else fed up with being nagged by their appliances? What I’m wondering is – how is it that with so many available programs on my washing machine, I still can’t program it to shut up? Now, I know we live in a digital age, but I can’t help… Continue reading

  • Fear & Conditioning

    Once upon a time…. When I relocated to attend Bible College in Queensland, I spent most of my first year there boarding with an adult family. The house we lived in was on a large, open piece of land on Mount Tamborine. It was certainly a beautiful place, and I loved the peace that living… Continue reading

  • Agency & Authority

    When my children were small, there was never any question about who was in charge. I was the boss of them because I was their parent, and my right to exercise parental authority was unquestioned because we all knew I rightfully possessed that authority. As a parent, it was my responsibility to care for and… Continue reading

  • Referendum

    Ordinarily, I am politically neutral. But today, being the day we vote in a national referendum about whether indigenous peoples should have their right to be heard enshrined in the constitution, I feel I must break that neutrality. I am going to ask you to vote NO, because by preferentially specifying one particular people group… Continue reading
