What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Dedication Sunday Sermon

    This time last year, I was away in the United States on sabbatical. I was travelling about from place to place and particularly from church to church. And I was looking for something

    I realised afterwards that I was looking for what is over the rainbow. There’s something about the New World and particularly the West Coast of the new world that makes people a bit like that.

    I was looking for the next best thing in the church. Looking for what was new, exciting, fresh. So much of what happens in that part of the world comes to us in the end. I was looking to get ahead of the curve.

    As I went from congregation to congregation I started to see patterns in what I was finding and gradually, particularly since I’ve come back, I’ve been making sense of all I saw.

    One particular pattern emerged. (more…)

    And this is all in Maryhill? There will be great wailing and gnashing of teeth in Newton Mearns and Giffnock when the news gets out..

    West Enders eat moose. South Siders eat Wholefoods. I know where I’d rather be.

    Does the Maryhill Lidl also offer Canadian Lobster? Not that I am bragging but the needy of the Rubarb Triangle need some joy in their lives and our Lidl is meeting this need

    Yes, lobster is on offer in Maryhill.

Secondly, the work that the choir will sing on Good Friday…

    One of the things that we were given to do on last week’s congregational weekend was to think of things that make us happy. There is a theory that if you make a habit of recalling three happy things that have happened to you each day, then it improves your mood. We used to call…
