Finding the Way
Have you ever been lost?
When we cant find our way we need someone to show us, rather than giving us a complicated set of directions. Jesus never leaves us to get lost, He shows us the way himself. Click the picture of the path through the forest to read Jenny's latest article.

Light in the darkness
Discouragement is hard to bear. We all need the kindness and wisdom of trusted people around us when we're discouraged and, as we help others to find light in the darkness, so we too will be able to climb out of our own dark valleys of despair.

New Year, New Road?
Have you started this year with the same thought patterns, attitudes and outlook on life as in previous years? Jenny encourages us to pause and, if so, to change direction and go down a different road this year.

This is me - David Sillett
David writes about his life - his love for his family, the countryside, his farming roots, and most importantly his faith and the benefits of understanding himself. Originally written for a work publication it's a very interesting and insightful testimony and well worth a read.
