The Lord’s Prayer – Retelling Our Story

Sometimes it is good to rethink those familiar things.  I came across this retranslation of The Lord’s Prayer via @lizdyer. O Breathing Life, your Name shines everywhere! May our future actions grow from here! Release a space to plant your Presence here. Envision your “I Can” now. Embody your desire in every light and form. Grow [...]

Easter Video

I’m not a big delerious fan but I came across this video via @EasterLIVE and I think it is really good.  I may use it Easter morning.

Saint Arnolds

I realised as I was updating the “Emerging Church in the North of England” page that I have been very remiss with my updating of late.  Duttyo keeps informing me of the new emerging group Saint Arnolds in the Lord Darcy pub Alwoodley, Leeds.  I think the group meet regularly to discuss the bible and drink [...]

Rock Eucharist

Some of my friends and the readers of my blog will remember this well.  Partly because you were there and in some cases because you were in the band! A few years ago we decided to have a thought experiment – what would the Eucharist look like if it was incarnated into a sphere that people [...]

Time – How Long is Too Long?

I have just had a conversation that prompts this question: How long do you give a Fresh Expression to establish itself before you pull the plug? What is a ‘fair crack of the whip’?

2010 – Carbon Emissions

I have recently been inspired by spring springing up around me unannounced.  There has been so much snow this year that it has come as a bit of a shock.  This lent, wife and I have decided not to give up something trivial but actually strive to give up a bit more carbon footprint. I [...]

More Networking – The Changing World

I just read a very interesting article about social networking by Kore who I discovered through twitter.  The main crux of the article is that we have moved in society from consumers and workers being given designs and making product handed down from the powers that be.  We are now participants engaging in a conversation that shapes our [...]

Networking

Sometimes you just happen to be in the same place at the same time and like comes to like.  Whilst taking a colleague to a meeting last night we started talking about all sorts of things.  I just happened to mention the words ‘Fresh Expressions’ and ‘Emerging Church’.  Needless to say, one thing led to [...]
