Good Evening World

Hiya,

Just a quick note from me.

I’m having a bit of a rant, having wasted the last 30 minutes of my Sunday evening seeking to overcome this issue. But we have been beaten. Totally – by Facebook. I know, well, when to stand fight and when to simply walk away – and work around the problem. It makes me sad, but it is what it is: Facebook has been deleting music from our videos, with no recourse available for us.

Sadly, you can’t challenge the totalitarian approach of Social Media giants like Facebook: there is no complaints procedure; there is no customer service. There is just their action, which can’t be undone.

We get lots of people viewing, and enjoying, our resources on Facebook, directly. However, we will no longer be doing this. [READ MORE]

PS I’m off for a cup of tea and some more time with my family.

https://vimeo.com/729159251

Watch the video, Listen to the Audio, Read the transcript or Download the Video.

Andy B and Jo are back for more Marriage Matters. They said they would be back and here they are - back with more matters about marriage that matter because marriage matters, as Andy B so succinctly manages to say each week (or not)!

As usual Andy and Jo share their thoughts and personal experiences as they consider why Marriage is the way to go and seek to dispel the myths about marriage that make you think of marriage in a negative way. Andy B and Jo do their best to extol the virtues of marriage which wasn’t as difficult as it sounds as the research seems to back them up! READ MORE]

S02E002, King of Kings, Family Prayer Time

“Be honest, be truthful, be real with God.”

https://vimeo.com/728878457

In the second episode of this new series, Peter & JoJo get together to encourage us, as always - to pray as a family – and in this series by using the book of psalms. This time, Pete and Jo read some verses from Psalm 2.

This Psalm was written by King David to celebrate the coronation of Israelite Kings and ultimately the coronation of Jesus – the eternal King – King of all Kings!

So, as Jo says this Psalm is an opportunity to praise God in our prayers. There are, of course, different kinds of prayers, like thanksgiving prayers, when we thank God for things, petition prayers when we ask for things from God and praise prayers when we simply worship God because he is God – awesome, amazing and beyond description.

Join Peter and JoJo in celebrating God our King because:

‘What joy for all who take refuge in him!’

A Brief Pause with Andy B, 22.07.2022

It’s interesting to think of those things we absolutely need… …until they are gone, when we realise how easily we can live without them.

@faith20

my brother, how are you and your lovely wife?

please update me

you're rarely out of my mind. i don't always send you messages. But please know you're frequently in my prayers!

how are things for you right now? how is the drought?

we're looking ahead at a very trying year in the UK as we move forwards. i am worried what a new prime minister will do...we will see; God is still in control, but I see a rough 12 months ahead for the UK people

in January our energy bill (heating, cooking) was about £100/month

by October (just 3 months from now) the government say it might be £550/month (since price rises in March we pay £300/month)

many families here have been struggling to feed their children since prices suddenly rose in march...salaries have not gone up. people do not have the extra money to heat their homes and cook food

we are blessed with a wood burning stove. we will try and find wood to heat our home. it is going to get very difficult

your brother

Behind the scenes with the BerryBunch

I’ve been hearing the same thing of late, from quite a few people. And it goes something like this:

“How are you able to produce so much? I can’t do that”.

So, let me pull the curtain back a little, to the world of the BerryBunch – in the hope that I can encourage you in your own serving of God.

But, firstly, do you have any specific questions you’d like us to answer about what we do, how we do it, or why we do it? Let us know and we’ll do our best to answer them. [READ MORE]

A Brief Pause with Andy B, 20.07.2022

Don’t mistake age for wisdom. The one does not necessarily grow with the other!

Andy B

https://www.berrybunch.family/a-brief-pause-with-andy-b-20-07-2022/

It’s good to check in with God during the day, so take a brief pause every hour or so and reflect on this quote/image.

#TestimonyTuesday: A Moment with Our Creator

Today’s testimony comes from Beth Alisan, and her blog, Lessons from a Lab. Her testimony speaks not just of God’s goodness, and God’s provision – but also God’s ever perfect timing. And, if you haven’t come across Beth’s blog, it is simply superb and I always enjoy finding out what God will want to say to me.

Praise be to the Lord God, the God of Israel, who alone does marvelous deeds. PSALM 72:18

Praise be to His glorious name forever; may the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen and Amen. Psalm 72:19

Testimony
Each year, I pack up my kids, my younger brother packs up his kids, my Dad packs up the boat, and we meet at a lakeside cabin for a week of fishing at a state park close to my older brother’s home. On the morning of our departure, the kids and I saw my husband off to work before loading the mini-van and heading north. [READ MORE]
