Re: Sermon on 10 August 2003
Hi Kelvin – like the blog. Are you going to be posting all your sermons to the blog or just selected ones? Lots of people post them in advance – there are a couple of sites that i read every week before writing my sermon, but I have not heard of anyone else posting them for comments after they have been preached. I'm surprised that members of your congregation have not taken the chance to comment on this one of yours – it is worthy of comment! Did anyone object to it?

Simon – thanks for the comment – the first one one to be made. You should try this blogging yourself, you would like it. You always used to keep a journal, I seem to remember. I think that I will probably be posting most sermons. There are just a few occasions in the year when I do something else rather than preach in a straightforward way (eg singing and then commenting on the song). It will be interesting to see whether people do take advantage of the chance to comment. No-one objected to it on Sunday, and quite a few made encouraging comments. It feels good to be in a church where I can preach that kind of sermon. I could not do so everywhere, as you yourself know well!
The opening of the new exhibition sh(OUT) opened tonight. I made it to the opening bash, it being my day off. (I still take a day off in Holy Week lest I make it not unto the end). I’m pleased that GoMA and Glasgow City Countil run these social justice themed exhibitions every couple of…
Do you play the trumpet, or do you know anyone who does? Having resolved the timpani drum transport crisis, we are now in need of a couple of trumpet players for Sunday morning. The music is Schubert in G and the Hallelujah Chorus (to be sung by the whole congregation). There is no fee attached…
We had a great start to Holy Week yesterday. A very full church in the morning with an excellent procession outside and back into church. All glory, laud and honour! At night, my spine was tingled more than once by the choir. In particular, the repeated phrase “Jerusalem, Jerusalem, turn to the Lord your God”…
That’s Morning Prayer for Holy week all prepared and uploaded and ready for printing.
