The footy
Disappointing weekend of footy all round. Broncos lost their 6th straight (or is it 7?), Cowboys, Lions even Dockers lost. Still, at least I'm not from WA - having Freo and Eagles both crash and burn in the first finals week can't be good. I know the Broncos are looking a bit poor just now - understatement maybe - but they still have the goods as far as I'm concerned. This will surely look ridiculous soon - but go the Broncos-Lions double! Frankly, as long as it isn't a Magpies Roosters victory I'll be happy. Looking forward to watching a decent amount of NRL this weekend.
Going to Sydney
Next Tuesday I'm heading off to Sydney with a bunch of mates to check out youth ministries all oveer the place. We'll see places that are based in sports centres, coffee shops, skate parks, people's houses, small Churches and massive mega-Churches. Hope to get stacks of ideas, be encouraged and have heaps and heaps of fun. Overall the study tour should be quite challenging, but will miss Ruth heaps I'm sure.
Sonfest
The first sonfest details are out now - Newsboys, Jars of Clay and Reliant K are headliners, with Wishful thinking, Rookie and Soulframe the main locals. Pillar should be there too. Lots of people seem pretty excited about the bands, so hopefully it's a good wekend.
A quote I got last week:
"A church which pitches its tents without constantly looking out for new horizons, which does not continually strike camp, is being untrue to its calling... (we must) play down our longing for certainty, accept what is risky, and live by improvisation and experiment." -- Hans Kung
