I just started studying medicine at university. (According to my friends being a medical student will make me more attractive to girls. I just got my stethoscope so we shall see if it has an extra benefit of being a chick magnet…). As part of the whole uni thing I’ve moved into halls of residence. […]

Do I dare?
{This is the first post by new All4God contributor Emma Swift} To follow Jesus is to bear the burden of your generation; to fully love like he does is to suffer the sorrow and pain of those around us. This is a massive challenge especially for those of us who have grown up with pretty […]
If they have never heard
“But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? And how can they believe in him if they have never heard about him? And how can they hear about him unless someone tells them?” Romans 10:14 We want our friends and family to be saved, right? As Christians we believe […]
Wisdom and the Word
“Since a dull axe requires great strength, sharpen the blade. That’s the value of wisdom; it helps you succeed.” Ecclesiastes 10:10 We need to be constantly sharpening our wisdom by spending time in God’s Word, listening to people explaining it and meditating on it so that when the time comes to need to apply it we […]
Mountain Dew for the Soul
If you live in or have ever been to America, you’ll probably have heard of (and may well have tried) a soft drink called Mountain Dew. It isn’t available in the UK, so it has achieved a certain cult following among people over here that have been to the USA and tried it. Compared to […]
Where would Jesus be?
A few years ago it used to be fashionable to wear those ‘What would Jesus do?’ bracelets. But maybe the question we need to ask ourselves more these days is not what He would do, but where He would be doing it. Because as Christians we have a tendency to form our little ‘holy-huddles’, seeking […]
Stained Glass Masquerade
Casting Crowns wrote a song ‘Stained Glass Masquerade’ about how, in general, Christians are very good at disguising how they are. We don’t like to admit our weakness, out of fear that others will look down on us. We live thinking we are the only one going through whatever we are going through, that no-one […]
Not Forgotten
Have you ever had an experience when you have totally forgotten someone who you should know? I was at Summer Madness last weekend, talking to a (male) friend before going to see SixStarHotel play -if you haven’t heard of them do a search for them, they rock!. Another (female) friend of his came over and […]
Michael Jackson/Hero Worship
Unless you’ve been hiding under a rock all weekend, you will know that on Thursday a musical legend passed away. And no matter what you think of him as a person, I doubt you can deny that musically, Michael Jackson has had some great tunes over the years, and had a major influence on many […]
The greatest day in history
“The women were terrified and bowed with their faces to the ground. Then the men asked, “Why are you looking among the dead for someone who is alive? He isn’t here! He is risen from the dead! Remember what he told you back in Galilee, that the Son of Man must be betrayed into the […]
