Matt Richley is a fellow worship leader, and recently completed a 9 month internship at Sovereign Grace Ministries under the mentorship of [...]

Reflections on our trip so far – exhausting and exhilarating! And the conference hasn’t even started yet!
Fly
Flying in basically seemed like an extra long day (since we crossed the dateline)… it’s the furthest from home both of us have ever been. We flew on Virgin Airways, which was the cheapest option. It also meant three [...]

Tomorrow, both of us will be flying off to the States for the very first time in our lives! We will be attending WorshipGod 11, a worship music conference hosted by Sovereign Grace Ministries in Gaithersburg, Maryland.

Just a quick update on our life:
- We’re moving house in less than a week: no white picket fence (it’s brown) but still a massive blessing from God to be able to call a place our home!
- Marriage is still fun and so awesome. So glad to be with Cheryl for however long we get [...]

Here’s a stat I read recently: one-third of women between 18-34 years of age check Facebook when they first wake up (before even getting up for the bathroom). I cringe because I find myself doing the same thing often. And then when I eventually get to my computer, I would be loathe to count how [...]

Here’s a thought-provoking quote from Tim Challies’s book “The Next Story”:
“It is usually only after a new technology is invented that we use our creativity and ingenuity to find ways of integrating it into our lives. This exacerbates its unintended consequences. If a technology was created specifically for business application and we adapt it to [...]

Thought I’d share a quote from a conversation between DA Carson and Tony Payne. Here, Carson suggests what he’d say during a church gathering/service to explain why there’s singing.
