Trinity in Film

Last Monday it was hinted at that you couldn’t teach doctrine without lecturing…

The film ‘About a Boy’ seems to teach it admirably well, I used it as a reflection for today’s sermon – just watching the film would have been better of course – ‘No man is an Island’  (John Donne, not Jon Bon Jovi!! – you’ll have to watch it to get that one…)

  • Bells

    Long time no blog! Well it’s over, the first of two years training that is… Yes still alive! During the last week of term we had a quiet day at Ty Mawr convent. It was hot beyond belief, but aslo a really great time. We went through the Myers – Briggs type indicator. So why the title of bells… well one characteristic of one letter of my type is to place oneself elsewhere when experiencing a place, sound, touch etc This is so me! Every Sunday when it’s sunny and the Cathedral bells are ringing, i’m in France at Taize!
