"God, In love..."

14/10/2019

**No potty mouth warning, but a request for you to read with grace**

Today's "to-do" list was short from the off. I had decided that there was going to be a single item on it, and I was going to do it well. (Granted, I had forgotten about the assembly that I had to deliver this morning, so that added to it).

Today's "to-do" is simple:
Read and reflect upon "God in Love Unites Us - The report of the Marriage and Relationships task group, 2019"

The list is simple, the task less so.
The task is bound up in my history, my upbringing, my theological journey, my desire to see God, my longing for others to meet him, my calling to "Act Justly, Love Mercy, and Walk Humbly with my God".
Wherever my journey with this report takes me, I have to submit myself to God.

Surely it would be more helpful as an account without the closing paragraph?"

It boils down to how we honour the good news of the Kingdom of God through four areas of our lives:
  • Worship
  • Learning and Caring
  • Service
  • Evangelism
To try and help get my head around it, I tried to get creative by turning each term into a verse of a song:

"My Calling..."

8/3/2019

Comments

 
Part of my Methodist Local Preacher's course entails various portfolio pieces in various media. Here's one of the questions I have tackled recently:

Produce something in a verbal medium (poetry, a talk, a meditation, a PowerPoint based on words) that you could use: (a) to share with a group what ‘calling’ means to you; and (b) to help them reflect on what 'calling' might mean to them. 


Part a:  Sharing what Calling means to me (in the medium of Poetry):
