The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness (A Book Reflection)

The Freedom of Self-Forgetfulness by Timoty Keller is an explosive little book. A friend suggested it here first. He expounded on the contents of the book a lot better than I can (so click that link and have a read). I read it this morning (about 8 hours before writing this post).

The line that is replaying itself in my head is: "... the essence of gospel-humility is not thinking more of myself or less of myself, it is thinking of myself less..." (32). This Keller goes onto say is, "blessed self-forgetfulness".

I will be contemplating this for a while yet!

I really suggest you get your hands on this book, especially if low/high self esteem is something you struggle or are aware of in your own life.

Grace and Peace,
Andy

Enjoying photography.

 I recently got a Go Pro HD Hero 2 (what a mouthful!) and have absolutely enjoyed shooting with it!

<= The pic on the left here is of my friend Ira he plays the accordion.

The above is me halfway through a layup. Haven't tried this type of shot before, so I'm actually buzzing at the moment at the potential of this wee gadget. This is a heavily edited shot. Took me about 30 minutes to do this, so it's not just point and shoot, but there is still room for improvement when it comes to these types of shots.

As a result I'm going to start skating again, ready to start pushing and experimenting with my Go Pro... stay tuned.

Grace and Peace.

What a year!

As I write, it's 3 days till I have been married for 3 months to my beautiful wife, Mrs. Rita Lee Crowe and 7 weeks exactly till the end of my year as a Training Teacher!

I know I haven't even mentioned Teaching on here before. This year has been so epic, getting married and studying, that I just haven't had time to write!

Here are some wedding photos!

Best day of my life, and I have had many more since then! :D

Grace and Peace.
