I still get really excited about going on a train / I'm such a kid. Off to one of my favourite cities ..

Grumpy jonesey continues!!! My new software is lost in post and my trial software has run out so no MS Outlook - so no email, no calendar, no nothing !!! So more bottom lip to add to gallery ... Good looking guy, don't you think ? Off to Bristol tomorrow to sit in first Methodist chapel in the world with national training officer - so really looking forward to that .


Sleep well ... Steve

New week with lots of deadlines thrown in !!! Ahhhh!!! Some major communications pieces to put together by Wednesday - a nc booklet, training programme for Methodists, etc ...


Been a bit of a crappy dad this weekend - grumpy, tired, too much food, too much tv- one of those blobby weekends you don't feel refreshed by - sorry jonestribe !! But it's a new month !!

Got our first baptisms coming up with some of our homeless friends, we'll book a bishop !


There is a growing sense of community and real friendship - it's precious !


I'm gonna take you on a quick tour with my movie camera ,...

I get such a buzz from design and automation - sorry I am a true geek - automation , if used properly, can probably do the work of full time one or two PA's. I've got automation : taking event and gathering bookings, following up with people, sharing excellent resources, collecting contact data, sending out emails, bookings for cathedral, and in future it'll supplement training in a big way..


Roll on the geek revolution !!!

Spending much time Reading irresistable revolution - deeply disturbing book - deeply radical about the ways of Christ ... Hope some of the book sticks !!

This is a picture of my lads doing quasar yesterday - I'm not sure what Jesus thought as they lasered each other with guns etc.. It was though something to do with 'kids (and adults) wanting to be heroes' , to do something revolutionary and significant with their lives - following jesus was never meant to be boring- how can we be ordinary heroes?

Funny thing is with this way of being church tonight , there is not a lot I can do to influence the evening - feels kinda weird... A preacher would preach (we don't really do that in traditional sense), a worship leader would get band and songs together(we don't really do it that way), ... So tonight I have no control, it's all been given away ( to wonderful people I must add) ... So I'm gonna wander and collect stories on my new video flip thing ... Have lots of coffee and relax these shoulders a while . Peace
