Stop. Start. Stay.

Not every journey is straight. Some of us live by detours. Some of us measure time in appointments, recoveries, resets, and the quiet courage it takes to begin again. This new hymn was written from within that kind of landscape. It blesses the roundabout and the restart. The traffic light on a rain-washed street when Continue reading

Silence. Suffering. Steadfastness.

A day of uneasy memory, quiet courage, and layered history. On 30 January, NeuroDivine holds space for complexity, conscience, and the land’s long remembering—and offers a new hymn rooted in Leinster’s fields for those who honour your servant Charles with tenderness rather than triumph.

Faith. Truth. Welcome.

With the twelve bells of St Patrick’s overhead, I offer this hymn as a prayer for Ballymena: for its people, its churches, and Christ’s light in the valley we call home. Continue reading

Berries. Stones. Songs.

There are moments when ancient scripture meets the landscapes that formed us, and something quietly transformative happens. This newly written hymn, inspired by Psalm 137, does exactly that—taking the ache of exile and setting it among the Glens of Antrim, where memory, belonging, and spiritual resonance run deep. Rather than retelling the psalm’s sorrow in Continue reading

Machines. Mercy. Meaning.

In the long, measured hours of dialysis, I began to notice how healing is carried not only by machines and medicine, but by the people who sit beside us, the families who steady us, and the landscape we carry within. This hymn‑poem grew from that stillness—a way of naming the courage found in ordinary care,… Continue reading

Reading. Reflection. Renewal.

📖✨ One of my Christmas gifts was Doorways to the Sacred: Developing Sacramentality in Fresh Expressions of Church. I tend to open parcels as they arrive rather than wait for the big reveal, so this book has already found its way into my hands. After the recent Church of Ireland Pioneer Gathering, I’ve been reflecting Continue reading
