    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!

    You will be delighted to hear, gentle reader, that at lunchtime today, the Cathedral Office came to a glorious standstill for a chorus of Que Sera, Sera. This event was of course, to mark Doris Day’s birthday, a feast which is unmoveable, even in Lent. Sing along now. Kudos to Fr Kirstin for alerting us.

    You know Elton John? Yes What’s the point? What?!? Well, what is the attraction? It can’t be his music can it? Part of your soul is missing. [The question is, who was speaking to whom?]

  • Here or there?

    Here or there, that is the liturgical question. High altar or altar amongst us? Do you dress the altar you are using, or the altar you used to use? Do you light candles up there or down here? These are not trivial questions and decisions have to be made. Nothing more precisely states the problem…
