lent blog

Today I was blogging over at the Lent blog… you can find my post here, titled “Life & Death”. Basically reposted Shaun’s thoughts from a few days ago, with a few wee additional comments.

Send some love to the lent blog.

Circle Pit

Got back from the UCCF retreat earlier today… so much fun. I’m pretty tired now after a few late nights and intense days!! Got to meet a lot of new folks, make connections with leaders in similar roles to mine (especially Josiah – legend!!) and receive some quality teaching from a pastor in Edinburgh.

Heading out to a friends gig in town now – Jen is playing at the Butterfly & Pig shortly which I’m excited about!

I’ll probably post up some notes from the weekend later.

Retreat

I’m away for the weekend… off on the UCCF leaders retreat thing to Lendrick Muir. I’ll be back on Sunday afternoon, so no blogging until then. Looking forward to a weekend hanging out with the guys from our exec, from execs all around Scotland and getting some quality teaching.

Also plan to watch the rugby on Saturday – Come On Ireland!!

Unforced Rhythms

“Are you tired? Worn out? Burned out on religion? Come to me. Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. I won’t lay anything heavy or ill-fitting on you. Keep company with me and you’ll learn to live freely and lightly.”

[Jesus – Matt 11]
