This is the first time in history that the story of Yeshua has been Number One in the Sunday Times Bestseller List! Proudest thing I’ve ever done. Because it is a story that affects us all. Our futures. Our hopes and confidences and the way we live and approach both adventure and

Is the Bible still relevant in a world like this? 🌍 In a world of climate crisis, tech overload and constant change, the Bible can seem ancient and out of touch. 💡 But what if the Bible’s story is still the best framework we have? A story of creation, brokenness, hope and

It seems odd that God would command rest. Like commanding ice cream or beach days. But the human condition is to hurry through life, rebelling against limitations. So in our dysfunction and addiction, God has to command something that is deeply life giving—Sabbath rest (Comer)

I feel physically sick at Trump’s Gaza clip. I just can’t comprehend how a human being could be so vile. Can I ask EVERYONE TO PLEASE REPOST THIS CLIP as a counter narrative. It’s essential we tell the truth about this horror show. Let your repost finger do the talking. 🎥

NEW report - Over 11 million people – that’s 1 in every 5 of us – is living on a deficit budget, meaning our household income, whether from wages or benefits, isn’t enough to cover the cost of the basic essentials needed to survive. Find out more: https://t.co/FQr114YcyX.

I’m not one for complaining but I am gutted! I spent 27 years in the Army and today I was going to vote in my local elections. I was sadly turned away at the door as my Veteran ID was not allowed as formal ID. I will be fighting for this “special ID” to be “more” formal🇬🇧

This is the first robot that I've seen that could actually replace many warehouse workers. Made by the Germans, of course.

In the #Laravel 4.x days, I made a prototype for a company that eventually evolved into a massive app with hundreds of classes and tons of functionality. Today it runs on Laravel 10 and #PHP 8.2. We always upgraded to the next Laravel and PHP release. The secret? Keep it

I'm always hesitant to post family stuff, because I always lose followers 😂, but hey, that's where my head's at most of the time. This week I caught one of my kids doing something inappropriate on their tablet. My reaction was to snatch the tablet and lecture. But I knew that

Letting you in on a secret. 🤐 The "FACADE" license plate is not just a reference to Laravel. It's meant to be a reminder every time I drive that material possessions are impermanent and can never bring lasting happiness. All must decay. Memento mori. Happy Tuesday! ❤️
