Not simply as a cynic but in order to engage with the crazy, mixed-up, charismatioc, evangelical world with a hintette of God at work. We could run a debrief session every day. Bet it would be full. Imagine the ministry team having this conversation: How do you want to respond to what you now understand God has done for you? I'd like to draw please. You should come Dave.

The trouble is we poor little earthlings are such earthen vessels we hardly know how to talk about it or even to exaclty say which bits are really the strong stuff. But you are a prophet in this lot - so what are you going to say you are FOR about Jesus? For me I can only say I met Jesus, I still cant explain it theologically or logically - all I know is it opened up a huge space of possibility in my life I've been filling since and even occaisionally just imagine I really heard his voice - principally saying 'come on you can do it, I really think you're great' which to the outside sounds banal but it cuts it for me... So 'New Wine' - may they all be drunk, even if the pubs aint open.

It's the new buzzword for "church," but somehow I find it lacking. We have Worship Centers all over the place. I figured out you could spend an entirely "centered" weekend: On Saturday I dropped my dirty clothes off at the Fabricare Center and my automobile at the Care Care Center. Then I jogged over to work out at the Fitness Center. I was trying to get all my errands done, as I knew we were planning a big Sunday at the Worship Center... I could grow to miss my mechanic, dry-cleaner, gym, and church. Anne Do you have evangelical “Worship Centers” in England? It’s the new buzzword for “church,” but somehow I find it lacking.
