    I found it Necessary: How does God speak to us

    This series of episodes (Part 1 of 3) is a response to the recent issue of the death of members of a Church in St. James. These members were killed through what seemed to be ritualistic killing, which has been very disturbing to the Jamaican public. It has also sparked numerous discussions and my hope is that these episodes will serve others to think critically. Books used: Foxes Book of Martyrs- John Foxe The Bible- All passages were quoted from the English Standard Version Students of the word- John Stott Why Trust the Bible- Greg Gilbert

    Random thoughts: Concerning Questions

    Questions have existed for as long as dialogue and enquiry existed. We ask questions out of a desire for answers, Socrates once said  “as it is, the lover of inquiry must follow his beloved wherever it may lead him”. It is my hope to share with you a few thoughts on this topic that I do hope will serve you well. Books mentioned are: The Horse and His boy- C.S. Lewis Till We Have Faces- C.S. Lewis The Weight of Glory (essay)- C.S. Lewis Confessions- Augustine Why Trust the Bible-Greg Gilbert Trial and death of Socrates- Plato

    Introduction to Worldviews: Starting from Zero

    As we start our series on worldviews, I thought it essential to start out by establishing some essentials before tackling the various view points and before even commending to you a Biblical worldview. This episode establishes where I think we all start. Below I have shared some books that I have found to be helpful for this episode particularly and also for the series: Why Should anyone believe anything at all?
