Thinking the Journey: December 2005
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2005_12_01_archive.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Thursday, December 08, 2005. So much for a months worth of regular blogs about the Holy Spirit! When I'm feeling better I'll continue my ministry essay- about why getting young people to 'become Christians' isn't a big part of my vision for ministry, so a few questions and thoughts thrown up by that might well appear hear after Christmas. Waves goodbye and retreats back to bed with kleenex, paracetamol and glass of water*.

Thinking the Journey: Cancer Cure is all in the Wrist
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2006/11/cancer-cure-is-all-in-wrist.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Tuesday, November 21, 2006. Cancer Cure is all in the Wrist. To all you self righteous Christian men who see m*sturb*ting as a sin and spend hours and hours repenting over it and then not being able to stop yourself, and then repenting and praying, and having those painfully embarressing accountability conversations with your prayer partners. It's good for you. Have a nice day everyone. Labels: Now thats just random.

Thinking the Journey: Hoods, Yobs, and Access.
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2006/11/hoods-yobs-and-access.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Thursday, November 30, 2006. Hoods, Yobs, and Access. At first glance the refusal to allow a group of young people into a public space (which particularly wants to '.embrace it's broard community.' and '.generate a spirit of participation.') seems out of order. Before I'd have pointed out that it's not all young people who are like this, just the minority. Labels: youth and community work. Posted by Nikki @ 7:59 pm.

http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2006_03_01_archive.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Thursday, March 16, 2006. I'm doing a small (3000 words) peice of work for uni on faith and justice and am going to tackle the way lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgendered, or questioning young people are treated in Christian and Secular youth groups. If you have any experience of this- would you be able to say how it was for you or someone you know? Then please do get in touch-. Posted by Nikki @ 12:35 pm. The football coac...

Thinking the Journey: May 2005
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2005_05_01_archive.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Tuesday, May 31, 2005. As a hard working student, to say nothing of a previously clossetted but now becoming a bit more 'out' football fan, maybe I could have one of these for my room. And for the all important admin days (which are generally on a Friday afternoon coz I've not got round to it all week) maybe this piece of novelty office equipment would be appropriate as well. Posted by Nikki @ 12:19 pm. Controlled by scie...

Thinking the Journey: November 2005
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2005_11_01_archive.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Wednesday, November 16, 2005. One of the helpful phrases mentioned on Saturday was 'Charismatic Spirituality'. I like it coz it shows that it's one type of spirituality, and there are many more. The more types of spirituality you have the richer your faith IMHO. Posted by Nikki @ 10:57 am. What is it about the Charismatic I have moved on from and Why? I think a lot of it is about the control and manipulation I have percie...

Thinking the Journey: How human are we?
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2007/01/how-human-are-we.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Wednesday, January 03, 2007. How human are we? So to someone who's rejecting fundamentalist faith, turning away from the dogma, sifting the relevance of Christianity what does Christmas mean? Jesus became human, so we can become human. So why is Christmas so often such a dehumanising experience filled with want, greed, arguments, stress, unhealthy lifestyles? Is this really how to celebrate Jesus birth? Cancer Cure is all...

Thinking the Journey: Remembering and reflecting
http://thinkingthejourney.blogspot.com/2006/11/remembering-and-reflecting.html
Mountaineer, Friend, Partner, Youth Worker, Spiritual Adventurer of No Fixed Abode. Monday, November 13, 2006. This weekend of remembrance has somehow involved me more emotionally than previously. Was it watching the service on Saturday evening? Everything was certainly portrayed as very tragic yet glorious. Or was it sitting on the train on Sunday with a veteran returning from ceremonies in London? Few would argue that Hitler had to be stopped- could this have been done without force being used?
