Can I suggest you head over to Akma’s blog to read his post about the death of Aaron Swartz. It is moving and thoughtful and expresses more eloquently than I can how I feel about this death.
Most people won’t know Aaron’s name. However we all get the benefit of his work.
As Akma says, “the churches have an intrinsic interest in communication, free communication, profligate communication.”
Hear, hear.
What a marvellous sermon to have at your induction! Great stuff.
It’s a walking account of what happen when sermons get reported by others from memory, isn’t (yes, my blog.) It was a great sermon, Kelvin. I did try to blow my nose quietly – but I had to keep the mascara from running too badly…..
Great sermon, Fr K. Sorry I missed it.
Kelvin, it was a great sermon. Would it be ok if I reproduced it in our church newsletter? The non computer older Dunoon folk would love to see it.
No problem Maureen.
It certainly was excellent. Many a ‘preacher’ could gain a great deal from studying your sermons. Could you not start a school for sermon givers? I am sure Nigal Robb would approve
Thank you so much for posting this. I was so sorry to miss it and getting some of it post facto is excellent!
The day begins with the discovery that someone (a member of the Orthodox church community who use the church sometimes) left a box of candles on a heater yesterday. The mess and stench greet me when I go into church at 0730 to get ready for the early service.
There was an outbreak of chiasmus in the Scottish Parliament yesterday, with this comment coming from David McLetchie: “Wouldn't it be ironic if … the criminals can be smokers but the smokers will become criminals?”Very clever. Of such stuff preachers are made and preachers make stuff of.
That last blog entry about the Election is an example of an apophatic blog entry. Not many of them about in the blogsphere.
I'd just like you to note how good I am being at not blogging anything about the Episcopal Election in this diocese.Lead us not into temptation.
