Life in Christendom

What is the vision of life that we are called to delight in? What does life under the throne of grace look like for families, cats and bankers? Here is my attempt at making some inroads into the beauty of a Christ centred life.

The Rhythm of Life

Singing the Psalms - sermo humilis

The Psalms have always been central to a thriving church. And I would argue that the congregation that sets the Psalms aside is a church that will soon find herself in loveless mediocrity. The five books that make up the Book of Psalms were central to temple and synagogue … [Read more...] about The Rhythm of Life

Still Rolls the Stone

21 February 2019 By David Trounce

Jesus Rolls Away the Stone - sermo humilis

Grace. A Risky Proposition

11 February 2019 By David Trounce

Grace is Risky - sermo humilis

Whether it be God, gravity or government. “You make springs gush forth in the valleys; they flow between the … [Read more...] about Grace. A Risky Proposition
