Beside The Burn
A short Advent devotional video each day.
On Monday I shared a song by Deacon Blue, today a song by their lead singer Ricky Ross. A beautiful song about preparing for Christmas, and wanting to spend a while rejoicing in the birth of our Saviour and what that means, rather than rushing on ahead to Easter.
Association for Theological Education (ATEN), Nepal Give thanks to God for the life and witness of Dr Ramesh Khatry, the founder of the ATEN library and the Nepal Prayer Movement, who passed away on 21 October 2023. Pray for God’s comforting presence for his family and colleagues in ministry.
