Tomorrow nigh I shall introduce the housegroup to a new word.

The word is 'effulgence'.

Apparently it means brilliance, splendor, the state of being bright, radiant.

To Chris and me it sounds like the description of something brown with bits in it.

'Mazin wot bein eddycated duz for yer.

Play nice - I will delete anything I don't want associated with this blog and I will delete anonymous comments.

Why post emergent?

Why not?

Some years ago I wrote about things relating to church I thought were important then and probably still do to an extent. So many of us want to make sure stuff is right, trying to differentiate ourselves, yet also often miss the more important stuff, the bigger picture.

I watch various people doing church in different ways and wonder how much God is concerned about our 'important' bits of theology or stances we take. The church stream I was once so pleased to be part of is starting to look like every other church to me, so maybe it's time I had a little humility instead of pride at being different.
