Church Interior - Fly Through (Don't make yourself dizzy)
A wee panorama of the inside of our kirk when empty. Shhhh...You'll waken the church mouse! (and please close the door behind you in case it gets out) We know it's not about the building but it is very clever how you can do this. Many thanks to our property convenor's son Campbell McKerracher and if you go to cammylad.com then you'll see more of his suff.

Chocolate Teapots for Sunday 22nd

A good passage I can't ever remember preaching on. How did that happen. Anyway, it's one of the thrtee versions of Pauls Damascus Road experience. Each version is slightly different and this is the first version.

Acts 9:1-6 (7-20). I'd read the whole thing which the parenthesis allows us to do.

So go and have a good read. Then you can explain it to me. Maybe it happened just like that and maybe it didn't. As far as fact is concerned it doesn't really concern me. What's the truth in the story? What's it trying to say to us, not in any moral sense but as theological sense? Bright lights, a call for confession, blindness and a change of name. It all add up to something God-like.

So, hymns?
Symbols?
Music?
Ways of retelling the story?
Stray thoughts?

What word jumped out at you?
What made you laugh?
What made you sit up straight?
