Christian T-Shirts

My niece has revived her Christian t-shirt business - called "Upstream Designs".

It's well worth having a look at the Upstream Designs website - you can buy t-shirts from a range of designs, colours, sizes, etc.

How Do I Become a Christian?

This is the fifth (and last) talk in the series that I did following the Open Sunday that we ran at our Church. The topic of this talk was "How do I become a Christian".

Here's the handout.

How is life different as a Christian?

This is the fourth talk in the series of talks that I have been doing for our Church group following on from the "Open Sunday" that we held in January. This talk is on about how life will be different if someone decides to become a Christian.

This is the handout for this talk.

Can a Rational Person Believe?

Here is the third talk from our Open Sunday "Talk a Look" series. This time that talk was on the topic "Can a Rational Person Believe in God / Jesus?".

Here is the handout for this talk.

Good News?

I seem to be about a week behind in getting these videos onto my blog! Here's the second one in the Open Sunday "Take a Look" series which was on the topic "If the Bible is true, how could that be Good News?".

Here's the handout.



I'm just in the process of processing the third video so hope to post that one soon.

Open Sunday - "Take a Look"

Well, I've now got the video of the Open Sunday talk uploaded to Google Video - although I have now discovered that Google is going to stop allowing video uploads in a few months, so I'm going to have to explore other possibilities *sigh*!

Still - it should be around at least long enough for us to use it for the series of talks following the Open Sunday so that's something anyway.

Enough on that - here's the video: we haven't yet put it on the church website (crawleychurch.org.uk) - thought we'd use my blog as a guinea pig first...

By the way, apologies for the sound quality - this was just recorded with a camcorder off to one side of the hall (no fancy sound equipment, I'm afraid) - I think it's good enough though (assuming you can deal with my weird accent!).

Here's the handout from the day.



Hopefully I'll also bring you the follow-on talks as well over the coming weeks. The next one ("If the Bible is true, how could that be "Good News") has already been recorded and uploaded, so I should be able to post that one soon. But now I need to go and work on the preparation for the third on in the series which will be on the topic of "Can a rational person really believe in God / the Bible?".

A Little Song

Well, we had our Open Sunday on the 18th, and it seemed to be quite successful - had a reasonable number of visitors, which was nice. However, I'm going to be delivering a series of talks over the next few weeks, so am still rather busy. We're hoping to put recordings of the talks on our church website all being well - if we manage to get that to work I'll try to post them here as well.

In the mean time, here's another little poem for you to enjoy:

A little song, one summer's day,
Came floating past my ear.
It tiptoed in to look around
And chose to settle there.

It filled my head with dancing notes
That skipped into my heart,
And now we are so close and dear
It seems we'll never part!
