Thought I would highlight another church website which has free audio sermons to download and listen to. Grace Church Goodmayes has members from Ilford, Chadwell Heath, Dagenham, Romford and Redbridge They are a church close to my heart as I have been priviledged to visit them to preach once or twice and they are a fantastic group of people. On our church’s website there is also a list of some other newfrontiers churches with websites. Read more

Flyover Nation sounds a note of caution about linking the church too closely with politics. I have never liked the idea of the church being simply the Republican party at prayer. In the UK it was always the Tory party/conservatives who were seen to be intrinsically linked to church. I agree Christians shouldnt be partisan, but at the same time we should be involved in the important issues. A Christian pastor is OK to highlight where various candidates stand on... Read more

Am trying to get a new banner for the blogdom of God together- what do people think of this one? Any other ideas?  Read more

Top marks for patient to Digitus Finger who is the latest member of the Blogdom of God. Due largely to me sinking under the flood of emails, he has had to wait an inordinate amount of time to join – yes FIVE MONTHS!!!!! I am so sorry! From my reading of his blog it looks great- I wonder if I will come to like it a lot. Unlike some of the Christian blogs he isnt spending his time bleating on... Read more

Blogger blogs like mine can now have post categories! I have worked out a way around the problem of Blogger not supporting post categories. Basically the trick is to use Google search results. The outcome is reasonably neat in my mind- take it for a spin in my sidebar. You are welcome to nick the idea! Read more

According to Hugh Hewitt US papers are letting their readers down badly in reporting the election. In particular he claims “…the secondary nature of the old media is becoming quite obvious. Reporters…all know about the magic hat and the now discredited claims of Christmas Eve in Cambodia. Most of them know that Douglas Brinkley also raised the stakes last week by citing three or four missions to Cambodia with SEALs, Green Berets and CIA men and that Brinkley must have... Read more

Patriot Paradox celebrates his 1st Blogiversary today. He does a good job of singing his own praises (all this and humble too….) over on his blog, but I have to say I agree with it. He is a good blog friend to me, and has helped behind the scenes with the Blogdom of God in a pretty significant way- he is too humble to admit to that! The best thing about the Patriot is his openeness to help others and... Read more

Please feel free to ‘sign’ this digital card for Josh Claybourn below. Josh is a great man and a great blogger, behind every great man is a great woman, in this case his mother. Murray Walker said ‘Behind every great man is a woman who knows he’s a blithering idiot.’ I’m sure that wasn’t the case in Josh’s case. Josh is one of my favorite bloggers and was the first of the ‘popular’ blogs to take any notice of me... Read more
