Here’s a video of what I saw yesterday afternoon at the Glasgow School of Art.

What do you think?
A couple of years ago, I asked the congregation a series of questions in a Consultation Document. It was a most fruitful exercise. Somehow the folk at St Mary’s like being asked questions and like getting the chance to respond. Maybe most congregations would be like that if they got the chance. Recently, a small…
