The Planter & His Preparation
Good little clip here from Darrin Patrick on the character of a church planter. [vimeo http://vimeo.com/20574765]
Why we should read?
[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ofJ8QIcg0bQ#at=21] I like Al Mohler and his gimpy story about sneaking books on holiday! [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ttktOtt3HRs&feature=player_embedded#at=33] I think the bottom line for all of us in ministry is that if we are not reading broadly and often then we are doing a disservice…
Great Ideas For Sermon Application
One of my favourite bloggers offers some helpful tips here.
Being An Excellent Wife
I’m having a woman’s day today. I know it was supposed to be interviews with planters but I am waiting for my questionnaires to come back. Enjoy the following for now. Good little blog here.
A Woman’s Desire For Headship
A very good article here written on what looks like an excellent counselling blog for women.
‘Ministries Of Mercy’ Book Review
I came across this book recently and decided to give it a go. I understand Tim Keller wrote the book over 20 years ago and the one I am reading is his second edition from 1997. This book is divided into two distinct parts: the first focusing on the “Principles’ for mercy ministries and the second on the ‘Practice’ of mercy ministries. The first…

You have to love it.
Why Our Church Doesn’t Feel Like Family

We connect better with one another when we are working together in service. That is so true. I see it in mission teams that visit us from time to time. People who knew barely each other at the start come together in firm friendship by the end.…
Blog Posts of The Week!
Here are some of the more interesting blogs (to me anyway) that I have found recently. Can I just reiterate that just because I am posting them does not necessarily mean that I agree with everything written or stated. I like to put up things that provoke at least some thought and discussion. I also like to put up some fun stuff. So, to those of you who complain about the…
Back2Work Project
One of the many issues in an area like Niddrie is long-term unemployment and the general lack of motivation for young (and older) people to find employment opportunities. At NCC we obviously place a premium on proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ, but we believe it goes hand in hand with doing good deeds and providing opportunities for members of the community to…
