About

Hi! My name is Karen. I enjoy baking, reading, watching films and spending time with my family. I like monkeys, tigers, squirrels and ducks (especially rubber ones!) I’m perfectly ordinary.

I am also a Christian. I know that the bible was written a very long time ago. But as I wander through life, I find everyday things help me understand what that means today. Some things are obvious – love your neighbour means be kind to people. Some things need a bit more unpacking.

I have a story-tellers brain (no, I’m not a great author, no you won’t have read a book by me. Yet!) So when I see something and it sparks something in my imagination, I write about it. And hopefully that is what this blog will contain: the result of little sparks being written about.

Disclaimer: I am not a trained theologian. This blog is the result of me telling some people I loved to write and being challenged to do something with it. This contains only the musings of my mind. It does not reflect Christians as a whole, or any specific denomination within it. I have been influenced by DNA Christian Discipleship and Leadership who have taught me more about God’s character and what it means to live as a follower of Jesus through their actions and teaching. I have also been influenced by my experiences, the miracles I have seen and the encounters I believe I have had with God. But it still remains my opinion alone.
