S05E030, Halloween – Good or Bad?!? Andy B 2 Minute Video

https://vimeo.com/765762808

Halloween – is it a good thing or a bad thing to celebrate Halloween?

I’ve heard both sides of the argument!

I’ve listened to church ministers of the gospel who say we should celebrate it, because it is nothing to fear since we are Christians; putting on a Halloween celebration is good for the church to do as it shows how churches are still relevant for a modern world.

I’ve listened to church ministers of the gospel who say we should never celebrate it, because to do so is invite evil into our churches and into our lives.

So what do I think? What is the position of the BerryBunch.family Ministry – that reaches out to families all around the world?

Well, to be honest, we couldn’t do better than Canon J John, who wrote an article we also published – in full, with permission – on our own website. So, go read his article. It’s typically, [READ MORE]

@faith20 Thankyou my brother

@faith20 He has been opening some interesting doors!! We're honoured to be able to see God at work in us and through us.

We hope the church we have found will be ok for us. We miss church...3 years is a long time to miss fellowship with other believers

@faith20 Amen. Love your picture of the boat, sails and Jesus!!

Government can never save us - only Jesus. But I'm so glad they're undoing those horrible controlling measures from covid

We are good. God is good. Plenty of changes and we may eve have found a church we can attend. We've longed for one for 3 years...one step at a time...we will see

Our radio show is now 3 hours long, which we prefer - the extra hour helps us relax a bit more!

Our boys are great, and God has blessed us with some much needed support - just as we lost money, God gave us money from a source I would never have expected.

Praying ever on for you, your wife, your home and employment.

What a peace you have. Brilliant!!!

@faith20 how are you doing my brother? how is Italy? i saw that some changes are coming, but how are things, and how are you and your lovely wife?

I read this yesterday and thought it was utterly brilliant, and superbly penned - so I'm posting it here in full, with permission from Philo Trust and Canon J John.

If you're on the fence, or if you're not, about whether you should be celebrating Halloween, or even what our response should be, I'd like to commend this article to you.

You can find out more about Canon J John at his website www.canonjjohn.com

S05E027, Swimming Pool Trinity, Part 1 of 3, Andy B 2 Minute Video

https://vimeo.com/763350824

It’s hard to explain the Trinity. For a start it isn’t something you’ll find in your bibles. But the members of The Trinity are very obviously there: it is, at its heart, our human way of seeking to explain the relationship between God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit.

I’ve heard that relationship explained using water as having 3 separate states (gas, liquid, solid), yet still all still being water at their core even if they do look a bit different. I’ve also heard it as a yoghurt being made up of three parts, although that attempt at explaining The Trinity never made much sense to me if I’m honest. [READ MORE]

S02E005, Stubborn as a Mule, Story Time with Dave the Dog

https://vimeo.com/758050132

Balaam was a man who had a pretty smart donkey. His donkey, actually, was smart enough to even try and save his owner - Balaam - from a few potential disasters, which Balaam did not appreciate!

Here we have Dave the Dog, and Jo, helping us understand the story a little better. You can read the rest of the story in Numbers 22:21-39.

S05E026, Doing Nothing on Purpose, Andy B 2 Minute Video

https://vimeo.com/763350222

Are you any good at resting?

I’m never going to be accused of being lazy. But I could, far more easily, be accused of not resting very well.

If I’m in bed I’m either asleep or pretty ill. Simply lazing about does not come naturally to me, so it can be hard for me to properly rest when I do get the opportunity.

While in Spain my wife and I were not coping with what many other British holiday makers were doing – sitting by the pool seemingly filling the time between breakfast and dinner, day after day.

We do not do well at not doing anything. But, doing nothing on purpose is something very different - there is a world of difference between the two, and we all need times when we can deliberately, and intentionally, do nothing. [READ MORE]
