Everything Must Go - Jesus Christ Superstore
On Wednesday night at CityGroup we had a great time of worship, teaching and discussion. We began our new mini-series Everything Must Go - The implications of being a missional church. Around candle lit tables we sang, listened and threw out thoughts and questions, all incredibly helpful and challenging stuff. The audio of the talk will not be made available but I hope to be able to capture some of what we looked at here.

Viva la difference
Yesterday I had the privilege of being asked to go and speak at our Redeem:Women event. Privilege you say? Yes, it’s a women only event that Redeemer Central run to gather women together to worship, pray and hear teaching that is specific to them. So yes it was a privilege to be there. To be able to see the number of women that we have at Redeemer who are passionate about Jesus was really encouraging. So why was I, a man, there? I had been asked to come and speak to the group on the roles of women within Redeemer Central. No mean task! In the near future we will be publishing a paper on this, but in the meantime I thought I would share the overview that I gave at Redeem:Women.

Narrative breakdown
It's not often that you hear preachers using well placed and carefully crafted narrative as a key part of their sermon. It's how Jesus communicated, so why have many moved away from it? Here's an excellent lesson in the power of a well delivered, carefully crafted story from the excellent communicator Malcolm Gladwell.
