A Lovely Way to Start the Year

January 1, 2009

My lovely wife and I were both sitting here on our laptops next to each other in the lounge while the children were quietly doing things upstairs. It was a truly idyllic scene as my darling was editing the latest chapter of my book that I’ve been working on in some spare time over [...]

TOAM08 – Stephen Van Rhyn – Prevailing Under Pressure (Daniel)

July 8, 2008

Well . . . I’m here! And the Brighton conference has begun. The sense of anticipation and excitement is incredible. Joyful reunions of friends who have been on separate continents are happening everywhere. We are really a family. We are really on a mission.
At the beginning of the week, I would ask that you pray [...]

NWA08 – Remembering What Really Matters

April 9, 2008

Imagine my delight to read this post on my darling wife’s blog. It was very kind, slightly cheeky, and brought real joy to my heart. It is easy to feel disconnected from the real world while at a conference. But just in case I needed a reminder of the fact that my real delight is [...]

Mother’s Day Sermon – Comfort Like a Mother

Isaiah 49:15-16 Good News Bible“Can a woman [...]

Disney’s Animal Kingdom

February 16, 2008

Yes, it really is true that we managed to take all the above photos during a single day at the Animal Kingdom this week. Back on Wednesday, which seems an age away now, we spent a fantastic day on the wilder side of Disney. Actually, we got there closer to lunch time than opening time. [...]

Disney’s EPCOT

February 12, 2008

After a quieter day when we went back to Islands of Adventure to revisit some rides we especially liked, we moved to the Pop Century Hotel at Disney.
One major advantage of being here at this time of year is that we were able to do almost everything we wanted to do at EPCOT despite arriving [...]

At the Airport . . .

February 3, 2008

We’re sitting at Gatwick, having enjoyed what I fear may be our last healthy meal for a couple of weeks! We ate a fruit salad, a chicken, bacon and salad sandwich, and fresh fruit yogurt between us. I may be wrong, but my image of Orlando doesn’t include healthy salads being available. Tamasin is particularly [...]

America Beware . . . Warnie is Back!!

February 2, 2008

Yep—that’s right! This post marks the return of Warnie. I just can’t keep away any longer! Not only am I returning to reasonably regular fresh blogging, in less than 12 hours I’ll be jumping on a plane and living the “American dream” for two whole weeks! After much careful thought, I’ve also decided that you’re [...]

Review of the Year – The Warnock Family

December 16, 2007

The past twelve months have been relatively stable for us as a family. It is the first year for awhile that none of us have started a new job, or a new school (although Joel did move up from the school’s nursery class to reception). We have not moved, and we certainly haven’t moved church. [...]

October 10, 2007

Hi! It’s Mrs.W here again! The stage of life I am in currently involves spending a lot of time caring for my lovely 7 month old baby, George. He is now clapping his hands, rolling over, and sitting up. He also has his first tooth! He is such a cute little boy, and we all [...]

Andrew Fountain Interviews Adrian Warnock

July 16, 2007

This past weekend I had the joy of having Mr. and Mrs. Fountain stay in our family home. We had a lovely time with them, and it was an encourgaing time for all of us. We chatted for hours about our shared theology and blogging geekiness whilst Andrée and Anne chatted about their shared interest [...]

TRAVEL – Business Trips Are All In The Mind

June 16, 2007

I have long ago learnt that travelling on business is a mind game. Is that delay in the airport a ‘nightmare’ or is it simply more time for contemplation or reading that book you brought with you? Is travelling alone a risk, boring, or an opportunity for rare peace and quiet in our [...]

Amazing Grace on a Wedding Day

June 2, 2007

Almost twelve years ago we finished our wedding service with the hymn, “Amazing Grace.” It is probably the best hymn ever written in my humble opinion — not least because it calls us “wretches”!
We sang the hymn accompanied only by the same bagpipes that had welcomed Andrée in to the tune, “My Bonnie is a [...]
