Doesn't your child deserve the best?

Does it really make sense to decide to have a baby and then farm him out to a child minder at great expense, when you could manage on one income and enjoy your child and bring him/her up with your values? Decide which one of you is to earn the living and let the other one be a full time parent. It is worth it even if you have to rent a house rather than buy one. When you are buying a house you only have the illusion that it belongs to you. Why not rent, then the state of the property is the landlord's responsibility? I am convinced that if you think through the situation you will find that the one at home can learn for you all to live frugally, in exchange for the immense pleasure of your child/children's company. You will benefit and so will society with one more dependable young citizen.

Oh what about the career? You may not keep your expected promotion but you will be a happier person and you will have plenty of time for you later on.

Life after death

When we lose a loved one it is natural to wonder how they are faring in the next life. I would warn against going to a medium to find out. At worst these people are charlatans after your money, the rest misguided or worse. We are told in the Bible not to try to reach the dead. The best person to call on in this situation is Jesus. That's right, go to the top. He is always available through prayer and doesn't make a charge. All he requires is that you look for him with all your heart. He has the answers to all of life's difficult questions.

Constructive criticism

First of all thanks to Fat Prophet for your interest. I see from your blog you are having trouble commenting. To get back to my assessed service. Criticism albeit constructive is harder for some to take than others. I felt a little crushed after my assessed service but then remembered I had recorded it on my dictaphone. I listened to it all through and although my assessors were quite right about me speaking a little quickly and rushing from item to item, I was actually very pleased with the content of my sermon and how I presented it. So I have decided to take heart. I highly recommend other trainees to record your services. You can hear your good points and your bad and there is no argument about it, it is all caught on the recorder.

Section A

I've posted off my work for section A. Now to get on with B. Onward and upward as they say. It does feel good to have completed A, progress is being made.I think my tutor is more nervous than I as to the outcome, but then I am his first student. We are learning from each other.But then that should always be the case. It's an adventure we go on together.The course seems to be suiting me alright but I feel there are a lot of potentially excellent local preachers out there who are put off by the study. Something should be devised to include these good people, we can ill afford to do without them, especially as the numbers of ministers is dropping. What did Wesley do? You don't need a degree, or even A levels to preach. You need a call, and a close relationship with God.
