Currently living in the heart of the Welsh valleys (Pontypridd), but originally from the Big Apple (Cardiff) – feel like I’m like a salmon returning home – my Nan was born and raised in Ponty before going to work in Cardiff (and never to return apart from shopping at the market and eating delicious pasties at Princes on weekends, often with me in tow as a youngster).
I am a born again Christian of over 15 years, although unfortunately my physical age is a lot older. I have been in a number of professions starting out in Engineering, then going to University to study Computing; then Lecturing and completing a PhD (in 7 years 6 months and 23 days…and I still bear the scars!) whilst working for an international telecommunications company. I have embarked on yet another career as a Business Performance Coach (www.thirdwaycoaching.co.uk), and so, as I navigate through yet another major crossroads in my life (with Jesus at the helm), it’s time to start a blog - could this be a blogging mid-life crisis???
One thing I am sure of, when I look back God has had His hand on my life well before I came to know him in person, and I am sure that He will continue to guide me now, even if I am not so sure myself of what He is doing…
Hope you like the blog and it provokes some thought. I don’t claim that anything written here is borne completely out of original thought, the journey is too crowded for that…
Looking forward to maybe hearing your thoughts too!
Mark
