Modern Europe to Trivandrum

The administrative reforms of Napolean Bonaparte, the different phases of unification of Italy, the results of Russian Revolution in 1917, the cold war, crimean war, league of nations, 1 world war, Benito Mussolini, UNO and its organs, and what not…my mind is still meandering around the history of Modern Europe since 1789…I just completed my [...]

India’s national anthem by AR Rahman

With Independence Day around the corner, it is a must to hear AR Rahman’s version of our national anthem. It is truly his magnum opus! The composition contains voices of several famed singers from across the country.

The call to do mission is loud but not clear

It was another great Sunday at DBF. The pastor continued the sermon on “Mission”, final of a four-week series. I was sure very cheered to see the pastor urging his congregation to go out and do mission. But I was so much in curiosity why the sermon contained all about “doing mission”…especially when people of [...]

65th anniversary of Hiroshima, Nagasaki bombing

History should never repeat like how it transpired in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, sixty years ago. The aftermath of the first atomic bombing by US in Japan is absolutely distressing. The Hiroshima bombing left 80,000 to 140,000 people killed and 100,000 were seriously injured. The Nagasaki bombing killed 74,000 people and left 75,000 seriously injured. The [...]

Iran’s practice of death by stoning is primitive and shocking

Sometimes we don’t realise how fortunate we are living in our country that has democracy as its backbone. Think of being born as a woman in a country like Iran.

British PM on India visit calls for strong ties

I am quite liking Britain’s new prime minister David Cameron who is here on a two day visit with what Downing Street described as the largest UK trade delegation. It is quite a cheerful thing that Cameron who is on his third visit choose Bangalore as his first destination. He gave a pretty impressive speech [...]

My short reflection on America

Crossing Paris and the Atlantic Ocean, I finally reached my destination – Washington DC. Before I write on my experience, let me thank all the great engineers who worked on the New Delhi International Airport. It is splendid, my pastor surely will be very proud. The last time he came, he wailed over its poor [...]

Brian Doerksen’s ‘Faithful Father’ song

I am totally in love with Brian Doerksen’s songs. Brian has written popular songs, including ‘create in me a clean heart’ and ‘don’t let my love grow cold (click here)’. Here is one that I came across last week which is a must hear – ‘faithful father’. It gets to the top on my charts [...]

‘So you would come’ – Hillsong

Here is a song that stirred my spirit and led me to tears. Heard this song for the first time during our church service. The lyrics of this song is very moving, so I am posting it for all of you. Also, there is another popular song (To be pleasing you) that breathed again fresh [...]
