Gareth continues to address my opening salvo on the CU question. Which is nice. This time he asks whether Christian Unions should make disciples.
For my commentry here I’ll just reproduce the comment I left under his post:
Interesting. And mean for doing it when I was on holiday.
I think you correctly diagnose my ecclesiology. I think […]
Dear N. T. Wright is at the very least an interesting evangelical voice against the new covenant thing that the evangelical Anglicans are currently throwing about. I’m afriad I don’t have a simple overview of the story to link if you haven’t been following it at all.
Read his analysis here.
Gareth has started blogging in reply! He has a well written post on who exactly students are going to be witnessing too. What is the student mission field?
Broadly speaking, I don’t disagree. At least, I don’t with what he’s saying. Obviously he’s espousing a view of the Christian Union and its role different to the […]
In my recent post on Nottingham University Christian Union’s regular Friday night meeting, ‘Equip,’ I made some comments about preaching that I think were really poorly phrased, due to the level of misunderstanding of what I personally think that they’ve caused. This could well be because they really don’t say what I wanted to, or […]
I wish to respond briefly to my critics. By ‘critics’ I mean my loving friends and co-heirs in Christ who have raised questions about some things I have argued recently. This is the first of 2 posts of that ilk. I’m only intending to either clarify myself or correct myself - as opposed to responding […]
Andrew Wilson of King’s Eastbourne has written a stunning deconstruction of Dawkins’ The God Delusion, it’s long but definately worth reading. It’s also funny. Which helps.
It’s available on their resources page.
To continue examining the CU’s oft used cliches about itself, we’re going to have a brief look at everyone’s favourite “The CU is not a dating agency.”
They’re right. It isn’t. The Church is. I met Helen at church. Therefore church is better than the CU.
Haha.
Can I have a gulfstream jet in order to aid my blogging? Please? I can give you my PayPal details to donate to, if you like!
Benny Hinn wants one.
Are you amused? I’m amused. Everyone knows that if you have faith, Jesus will give you the power of flight. I mean, duh.

This is over 2000 words long. I think that makes it my longest article up here. Sorry, for the length, but splitting it didn’t seem appropriate and it just took that long to deal with the issues.
Quick bit of background. Impact is the official student magazine at Nottingham Uni. (There is an unofficial student newspaper, […]
The University’s student magazine ‘Impact’ has an article on the CU. When I’ve read it, I’ll comment. For now, though, here are some interesting links about why what has happened in Exeter and has been in the news lately about Christian Unions, will not be happening in Nottingham:
Students Union blog about their meeting with the […]
