It should not be long until the Scottish Government comes to its decisions about how to move forward on Equal Marriage in Scotland.
Two members of St Mary’s, Jaye and Ruth Richards-Hill had a good (and surprisingly long) interview on BBC Radio Scotland yesterday.
If you are interested in hearing it, you can find it here: http://t.co/85R0zdoL
The clip starts at 2 hours 31 minutes in – available for another 6 days.
I certainly agree with passive learning… I have called it ‘knowledge Grazing’ in a book I’m working on at the moment…. There’s a bit about this here… http://www.agent4change.net/grapevine/platform/2050-hungry-for-learning-knowledge-grazing-fits-the-bill.html
And for the church, well, maybe the passive learning paradigm is good. You already post the vid of the sermon for folks to watch again and digest – the number of questions people ask you or points they raise with you about the sermon after watching it again would perhaps be an indication as to how much passive church-type learning is taking place?
More especially the internet provides access to the 0.001% (probably less) of the population whose lives – like one’s own – revolve around these things. And exactly which stole who wore last Sunday to reduce everything to such an absurdity which of course is a Christian/liturgical idiosyncracy in itself. “It just encourages them!” as my mother would have said…
I’m not sure what you mean, Margaret.

I think I learn about all kinds of things (spiritual and otherwise) that I never expected to learn through following interesting people online who have quite different interests to my own.
I'm having stitches removed from my gums today in Perth. Last week, when I was there I noticed that there was an Ann Summers shop, right there on the High Street. I wonder what the Mothers' Union think of that. Perth must have changed a lot since I lived there.
Getting back to normal now after a rather inactive week. Did spend some time learning some new web-skills whilst I was supposed to be off sick. I'm impressed with Dreamweaver and have been using it to develop a postnuke website for someone and I feel very pleased with the results. It is not finished yet,…
I'm not preaching myself today, but thought that I would include a guest sermon. It is 40 years since Martin Luther King stood and gave the following speech Delivered on the stepsat the Lincoln Memorial in Washington DC on August 28, 1963. It bears re-reading all these years later.Preaching to change worlds by.”I am happy…
I've added a section to the site called 100 Things About Me. It can be found in the new menu on the left. I'd be interested in anyone who has trouble accessing the menu as it is part of a new menu module that I added last night to the site. In case anyone is interested,…
