Just back from a fantastic weekend conference with the folks from my previous congregation of Fitzroy Presbyterian in Belfast.  It was just a wonderful thing to be able to reconnect with so many stunning people who have influenced me in an enormous number of ways.  When I was a member the minister was the legendary Ken Newell, and the congregation are now looking to the future with new minister, U2 interpreter and charismatic maverick, Steve Stockman.

I was responsible for three sessions, and the notes are here:

1. Creation
   
2. Kingdom and Handout
   
3. New Creation
   

I had mentioned research that suggested that reading to children was unrelated to their test scores, but the number of books in they have in their home was.  That was from Freakonomics and hopefully I can get the quotes up soon.

I also quoted a John Ortberg version of the Beatitutdes which is up here.

Thank you so much to the fantastic David McNeill who was my liaison, and all the other members of the planning team; and thank you so much Fitzroy for having me back.
