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

Re: Sermon on 10 August 2003
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!
