And so to the autumn … when did that happen? … who knew??
And a sense of deja vu (again). No Saturday footie (for Bristol City). No Sunday gathering, as we look to review current guidance and formulate (yet another) new plan; and so, I guess, a very good time to blog again. Eek, the rest of the website is looking a bit neglected!! Better look at that next … which is good really … it could do with a bit of a revamp. I have come across, and been enjoying, a thoughtful series of blogs (5 so far) from Scott Brennan, about the Celtic Way of Mission. Do have a read of them, as much of what is said bears a strong resonance with our own vision, ethos and approach here at The Cairn: https://www.voiceoftheevangelists.com/post/the-celtic-way-of-mission-an-introduction https://www.voiceoftheevangelists.com/post/the-celtic-way-of-mission-patrick-pilgrim-apostle-of-ireland https://www.voiceoftheevangelists.com/post/the-celtic-way-of-mission-learning-from-the-gentleness-of-aidan https://www.voiceoftheevangelists.com/post/the-celtic-way-of-mission-disciples-rather-than-just-converts-learning-from-the-wisdom-of-hilda https://www.voiceoftheevangelists.com/post/the-celtic-way-of-mission-5-creating-strong-missional-centres-learning-from-st-cedd In addition, ‘Christian’ songs (if I can make that somewhat clumsy distinction) have often been a source of spiritual life and health to me, and remain so in this present season. Here are my current top 5, with grateful thanks to Elevation Worship, Bethel Music, Bright City of course (to name just a few). Fire’s Gonna Fall remains a current favourite, and here is a recent video link: https://youtu.be/7XJTFyTVR4U While on the subject of Pentecost, do check out Acts 2 and Ezekiel 37 for the inspiration behind many of these songs: https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+2&version=NIVUK https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Ezekiel+37&version=NIVUK Here is a great acoustic version of RATTLE!: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rzhPg9697k Pentecostal fire stirring something new You're not gonna run out of miracles anytime soon and Friday's disappointment Is Sunday's empty tomb can only lead to the amazing Come Out of that Grave: https://youtu.be/KVYO9KsVGI4 Graves Into Gardens: https://youtu.be/KwX1f2gYKZ4 and, Revival’s In The Air: https://youtu.be/u9TCQuni5Jw Do enjoy … and draw faith, hope and encouragement from these songs. Right, now for the rest of the website.
