EXEGESIS VRS. EISEGESIS IN BIBLE INTERPRETATION
I recently came across a post by a minister where he samples the genealogy text of Matthew 1:3 which speaks of Judah giving birth to Perez and confidently attempted to siphon out of it some "rhema"about praise(which is the meaning of Judah) being what births breakthrough( meaning of Perez). The rather interesting "eisegesis" and not "exegesis" really struck me as very unfortunate not for the reasons you would think, especially because I honestly think in the case of this individual, no malice is or was intended( my personal opinion).

My Best Stories in Vocal Communities
I really liked Rachel Deeming's idea of writing stories for each Vocal Community in 2025. I've written for many of them, but it would be a great personal challenge to see if I can write a new story for each of the existing communities in 2025. This story will be an index for all my community stories.

I sat at my favourite writing desk on January 1, 2025, with the beautiful morning light pouring in through the window.

From College to the Ganges: A Journey of Recollection
I have lived in Australia for 32 years, and each year, Diwali brings joy and tradition into my home. But every Diwali, as I light the Diyas (cup-shaped oil lamps), memories of a special journey from my college days come alive. It was a trip filled with adventure, peace, and unforgettable experiences—a journey that still warms my heart, much like the glow of the Diyas.
