gathering: August 2011
http://gatheringhillmorton.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, 31 August 2011. I was getting things ready in my new classroom yesterday, painting a blackboard on the wall (like you do in an old Victorian schoolroom) and as I moved some stuff out of the way of the drips, I picked up a children's history book I'd not seen before. It wasn't particulary good, not a patch on the Ladybird histories of my childrhood, but I flicked through it anyway. Slavery, freedom, safe houses, the everyday heroic. Watch the full episode. See more History Detectives.

Sunday, 28 October 2012. We had a great time last night at the launch of Jonny Shepherd. S worship CD Raise Your Voices. Home-grown kids worship created just a few streets away. Awesome. So we've been learning some new songs in the kitchen today. Which sort of underlines how catchy they are. Posted by matt clements. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Setting fire to my shoes.

gathering: use your loaf

And I also heard another word, just in the flow of conversation with Aaron Lincoln, and not about me, but boy did I feel the Spirit give me a kick when I heard it, and the word was: disgruntled. And I have a bit of disgruntled martyrdom in my DNA, for sure. So I found this video from Floyd McClung really helpful in dealing with the stuff that goes on in my heart. Here are a few bits that jumped out at me and chimed with my ears. To describe it, because to me combicorn. So that's how behind the times I am.

gathering: setting fire to my shoes
http://gatheringhillmorton.blogspot.com/p/whats-this-all-about.html
Setting fire to my shoes. And it probably wasn't fair for me to keep a tally of the number of times the elder leading the service said "afresh". He couldn't possibly have known that it's become a bit of a trigger word for me. I filled a whole five bar gate during an hour's semi-listening. And when that happens, I just have to run for the hills and get some "afresh" air. Why do they have to remind me how old I am (40 next week, by the way) by playing Graham Kendrick's Servant King. Sure, a church can have...

gathering: April 2011
http://gatheringhillmorton.blogspot.com/2011_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, 30 April 2011. I've always been fascinated by the Space Race (I'd weep at episodes of From the Earth to the Moon. So, with all this cosmonautical respect going round, you can imagine I was pretty chuffed to meet Gagarin during my visit to Hungary in February. OK, so not Yuri. Gagarin, but the next best thing. A guy who carries his (nick)name for generations to come. There's probably a video clip about how I met this other Gagarin over on the project blog at www.kolontark.blogspot.com. Did anyon...

gathering: June 2011
http://gatheringhillmorton.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Sunday, 26 June 2011. Here's how I hear from God sometimes. A nudge, a reminder, something falling into place. Before you know it, I'm joining the dots. So I fasted in the morning, went for a run around the nearby streets and parks, and kept listening. I'll take a towel and change of clothes in the car, just in case. So, big thanks to pastor Tim for being so flexible, and the folks from the Community Church at Southmead, and Josh for letting me crash his miniature pool party. And Barny, for choosing ...

gathering: May 2011
http://gatheringhillmorton.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 24 May 2011. I'm Matt Clements, and I am Second. I'd been researching the Bethany Hamilton story. It was something that God just dropped into my head in time for an assembly one Thursday - and I came across her little video on the I am Second. Posted by matt clements. And since they share a room, it's in a kind of delayed stereo. And I love what they've picked up from us and the new bits they weave in for themselves. I get to say amen. Posted by matt clements. Friday, 20 May 2011. So I have this...
