Sometimes I write just because my blog is sitting looking
empty and I just like to write. It is at
times like that that I will write a poem or just write about the weather. At other times I am feeling passionate about
my subject, usually then I write about the Christian faith. Today I spent the
morning with three friends chilling out looking around an old building near
here. It is called Shute Barton. It wasn’t a hugely grand place but we had a
guided tour which was interesting. The building had belonged to the Carew and
De la Pole family. A brother and sister
from the place travelled to settle in America only a short while after the
Pilgrim Fathers had done the journey.
Obviously very adventurous people. We then went to the local church
where they were serving coffee, tea and cakes.
My friends meet with me regularly for Bible study, but it is good to
spend time in this way. We don’t need to
talk religion because we all know what the other ones believe. It was a good time.
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.
