Personal Reflections

Sunday, February 27th, 2005

There’s not much point sitting thru a whole 4 days of Forge material if you don’t let it penetrate your life.
More information is not what we need as Christians. Hell no. If we (or maybe its I) could only do half of the things I already know to do then maybe we’d really see [...]

Another Great Day

Sunday, February 27th, 2005

Today at Forge we had a fantastic time.
Geoff Westlake did two presentations on his mission in Banksia Grove and offered some excellent biblical insights into what a Christian community ought to look like. I hadn’t heard Geoff do these presentations previously, and I loved the way he earthed his thinking in the biblical text.
Alan was [...]

Postcards from the Future

Friday, February 25th, 2005

Tonight was a great time with over 90 people coming out to the ‘postcards’ event. Well done Scott and Steve and crew who pulled it together. The turnout exceeded all of our expectations and made for some great vibe.
I think the intensity of my day caught up with me tonight. Five ‘one to one’ appointments [...]

Lovin Life

Wednesday, February 23rd, 2005

Today was one of those days when I am reminded of how much I enjoy the life I get to live.
It began with breakfast in Leedville with a few other guys who are also exploring the questions of mission and church. We catch up monthly for breakfast and I love hanging with these guys – [...]

Light Reading

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005

Before I go to bed tonight I am planning to skim read the policies of all the major parties in the race for next Saturday’s election.
Bolders has links to them all if you are interested.
I find it interesting that it has taken 22 years of particpation in Australian society to actually get to the point [...]

Anyone Feeling Brave?…

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005

Ok – come on all you missionary thinkers!
Thanks for the various comments on my post re the Healing festival, but no one offered an opinion on this question:
So here’s a serious question for you…
These guys got together and put on a healing festival. I’m sure part of it was to promote their own businesses, but [...]

.acom

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005

The reason I was at New Norcia last night was to speak to the .acom students about Forge and how they can receive credit for doing Forge units.
Scott did a great job of pulling the evening together and it was evident that there was a fair amount of energy in the room as the student [...]

Edward De Bono: Six action shoes

Tuesday, February 22nd, 2005

in the cut free If you’re read the six thinking hats then this is simply that kind of stuff in different format.
It was good value first time around but this one feels a bit tired and uninspiring. All he really says is that different situations require different kinds of action. I realise we sometimes [...]
