• Creative morning coming up

  21/08/2012

  The intention today is to spend a creative morning looking at upcoming issues of inspires, the magazine of the Scottish Episcopal Church.

  I’m trying to apply a broad theme to the magazines at the moment and so far as I can tell this seems to be appreciated by the readers.

  Upcoming themes are Journey/Pilgrimage/Place, The Communion (Anglican and Otherwise) and something on buildings/sacred space. I’ve a notion that we’ve not really done much on liturgy and I’m going to be discussing some ideas with a couple of other people today.

  I rather like doing this work but being the Editor of a magazine and running a cathedral are not always terrible compatible occupations. Deadlines and the liturgical year don’t always play nicely together.

  I’m always so grateful to the writers of the articles. Some people have the gift of generous writing – fast, accurate and interesting.

  They are a delight.

  I’ve asked before in the magazine itself whether people want to suggest themes for issues and two of the themes listed above come from people’s suggestions.

  Anyone want to make a suggestion here? Feel free in the comments below.

  I've just changed the picture o­n the church website to something snowy. Must get some more work done o­n that website soon. I was surprised that I had no comment at all from anyone about the picture that was o­n over Christmas. This was the o­ne from the Churches Advertising Network – http://www.churchads.org.uk/Christmas2003.html. I thought…
