Sport: Coaching the Australian Volleyball Team

The Australian Men\'s Volleyball Team pulled off a great performance at the 2012 London Olympics. .

  • London Paralympics 2012 - But Wait...There's More

    If someone had told me that three weeks ago a crazed drunk person would chase my car up the street with a crowbar, or that a year ago I would survive a head-on collision leaving me with injuries that would require weekly treatments, I think I would have been tempted to curl up in a ball and never leave the house.

  • Mind Control Is Here!

    For all of those aspiring to assert their secret ambitions of world domination by constructing an army of mind controlled super robots… technology has moved you one step closer.

  • The Limitless Man

    Every four years we get to watch the best in the world performing in a drama they have poured hours of their lives into. Thousands of days of private training culminates in event after event and medal after medal. It's that two-week window, twice a decade where you wish you had Foxtel; because we participate from our lounges. We learn the rules of new sports and see records broken, we hope and cheer and despair as the physical potential of the human body is paraded before us. You have an instant

  • Sin and Children: Partners in Crime

    The \'Kids Talk\' at church the other day made me think. The talk was not out of the ordinary. And the lady spoke with kindness and sincere love for the children. What made me think was the content. It was about sin (and thereafter redemption in Jesus).

  • Diabetes: The pandemic that may consume the entire federal budget

    If we had the power to make the financial decisions for Australia, we would each have a different opinion on where we feel the money should be spent, although I think most of us already do.

  • You are not good enough

    I have lived a life of relative ease and have suffered very little. I have parents, family, friends and a fiancé that love me. I have never suffered terrible health, or had to bereave anyone close to me. The fact that I can study, get married and practice my faith without hindrance demonstrates how blessed I am.

  • Do what you can, with what you have, where you are

    This year I've had the privilege of working alongside World Vision New Zealand as they continue to raise funds for the food crisis in West Africa. With 18 million people across the Sahel region on the brink of starvation I find myself wondering what I, as just one person, can do to be even the slightest bit of help to people in such desperate need.

  • Meeting my Facebook Pen Pal - and 'chuck a u-ey'

    Pen Pals have been a feature of English history lore over hundreds of years with letters going back and forth around the world. Today, Pen Pals are largely Facebook friends and this has been my experience with a Pen Pal (Facebook) with much interest, fascination and fun.

  • A Night of Stars – London Olympics

    Our visit to London is at an end but not before the Evening with the Olympians outreach with Lay Witnesses for Christ International (LWFCI) led by Dr Sam Mings and his ministry team from throughout the world.

  • Show No Mercy?

    I remember that day so vividly.

  • Parenting in a screen ridden world

    I remember as kids when our parents banned us from the TV, for a range of reasons I've now conveniently eliminated from my memory. We whinged and complained and went outside to play. It was always an effective form of discipline but seemed very harsh at the time.
