About

 

Ian Webster

I have discovered, late in life, a passion for writing, whether formal or creative, responding to an issue or a cry from the heart.  Not sure what to do with it just yet, so here I am inflicting it on the surfers of the world-wide web.               

Here I will be “wondering” about various topics of interest to this preacher and perhaps to Christians generally.  I’m not  a fulltime preacher, but it is an important focus of my life, and my interactions within the “community of saints” (sinners all) is what guides much of my thinking and “wondering”.               

No doubt some folk will pass through, some will stay and chat, others will be touched and move on.  Some will perhaps want to engage with the material and  use it  elsewhere.  I’d love to have you comment–leave your thoughts and  ideas.   If anything is useful for you, please feel free to use it in any way you like–but please acknowledge and, if you use it on the web or share it in an email, please put a link back to this page.  This is about sharing, getting to know each other, and testing one’s ideas.                          

My posts include Meditations, Stories and This and That.  The stories I have used as a sermon somewhere and are written to be read out loud.  The meditations may have emerged during a retreat or simply “out of the blue”, but all from the heart.  Some were in response to a set theme, others, like Pippin,  just arrived, demanding to be written.          

The Elephant crossed in front of us when we were driving through Kruger National Park. Thought I’d share him with the world since it seemed time to retire my previous header.  That was a moth, which was on the pavement when I took the picture of Pippin.
