Moving towards the loop

Friday, July 27th, 2007

I am back in the loop. Well, I have internet. I can’t promise any sort of regularity of posts since I don’t have a schedule of any sort. I’m currently job-hunting, which takes up most of my time. Rest assured that all the things I thought of to write about in the last month or […]

Limbo

Wednesday, July 4th, 2007

The scarcity of posts currently is due to my homelessness: I’m staying with friends during the gap between the end of one housing contract and the start of the next. I just wanted to point to a quick couple of things.
Adrian Warnock’s blog has moved, so if you enjoyed his excellent interviews with Terry Virgo […]

Happenings

Thursday, June 14th, 2007

Just a quick overview of the last few weeks and why I haven’t been posting:
Last week I was at Let’s Go! This was a week of intensive street evangelism in an area of Nottingham called St Ann’s. St Ann’s is famous for its violent (especially gun related) crime, but it’s lovely: the people are warm, […]

A bibliophile’s dream!

Thursday, May 31st, 2007

I have had, quite literally, a week of books.
It was my birthday earlier in the week, and so I’ve been given various very kind gifts of books, including amidst their number the complete works of the Puritan John Flavel, and a full set of Calvin’s commentaries. I’m not going to list all the titles in […]

On Blogging

Monday, May 7th, 2007

In a comment on another post Matt said, “you are a busy chap! When do you find time for studying.”
Well, there might be a reason behind that somewhere that would explain why I used to post daily, and I now post about three or four times a month: only really when I have time to […]

The Atonement Debate

Thursday, April 26th, 2007

Well, debate thunders on. There have been lots of comments from lots of people all over the internet, so I’m only going to point to a couple that I consider notable.
Firstly, N. T. Wright has responded to approximately everyone in the world. At points he sounds good, at points he doesn’t. Before I’ve said “well, […]

An apology

Friday, February 2nd, 2007

I’d like to apologise for some of my wording choices in the post below. They were perhaps ill-advised. I did not intend to communicate arrogance, anger or insult.
Also, my argument revolved around a consistent Arminian system. I’ve never met a consistent Arminian. I’m fairly sure you can’t be an ‘evangelical’ and a consistent Arminian. Inconsistence […]

A little bit of blogspotting

Tuesday, January 23rd, 2007

Luke has changed the name of his blog; shows us the new Mobilise video with its super cheap pricing and tells us about something really quite exciting: church on campus.
Interesting, eh? ;)
Read the rest of his blog, it’s good. Things to learn here: ‘Family on a mission’ is frankly where it’s at; Mobilise is amazing […]

Closing down for Christmas

Thursday, December 21st, 2006

I’m closing down for the Christmas period, which I’ll be spending with my Parents in Southampton. I might whack something I have saved up before New Year, but I’m not making promises. If you’ve been reading for a while you might have learnt that my “I’ll write this then” promises aren’t really worth the (metaphorical) […]

Where I Am Right Now ™

Friday, October 27th, 2006

Life has gotten really busy lately, I have a backlog of written posts, so I should continue to post stuff, but don’t hold out hope for anything specific.
I’m trying to get my head round the various issues so that I can actually begin to talk about the concept of “CU” - ideology, missional implementation, eccelsiology […]
