Either way...here or there...
Nick's message this morning was from Acts 20:7-12, where Eutychus falls asleep and tumbles out a window...his main application was NOT that he shouldn't be preaching until midnight, but we all appreciated the humour! The point really was that preaching wasn't merely the latest technology of the day, but the God-appointed means of grace to grow the church...we don't rely on gadgetry and gimmicks to draw people; the Holy Spirit continues to use the "old-fashioned" preaching of the Word to convict us of sin, righteousness and judgment. Lunch was spent happily at Andreas and Danielle; we very nearly mucked up the entire arrangement having totally (and to our utter embarrassment) forgotten that we had been invited. It was when I invited Danielle to lunch at our house that it all came to light. Doh! Meanwhile, we'd invited John to join us, so had to ask if the Bothas could feed an extra - turns out that they'd stolen our guest anyway so it was a case of all the same company, just a different venue. And way better food. We had a fondue!Amazing how co-operative the boys are for photos when there's a bribe involved..."you can watch a DVD as soon as I've taken a good pic"...^ What a yummy pudding :)
