Love grace, my family and helping start Grace Church Beckenham

Hey @TheAACars You quoted £191 (up £36) for my breakdown. I phoned, asked why & you immediately dropped it £40. We do this every year. It costs us 15minutes; it costs you to run the call centre and change DDs. Ever considered just quoting right price in 1st place?!

[Matt Dew-Jones @mattdewjones]

@rhamage Now you’re just trying to get me to buy it again to see if I made the minor acknowledgments section…🤣

[Robin Ham @rhamage]

Why not preach & read through Ruth this advent - £1 a copy for this devotional if you buy 100 for your church!
Plus an accompanying Spotify playlist! 🤪💷🎄

What would it take for you to give 33 times more to charity than the average person in the UK? We want to introduce you to some people who do just that. Thanks for sharing @BeckenhamGrace @mattdewjones https://t.co/I8L2hP64Mt

Being generous: we're made for it... we want to be... we often aren't... here's what we've learned from some amazing people:

Do you know this book?
I get the privilege of opening it up with people most days. Personally, I need the light & life it brings.
So seeing photos of it held aloft in the midst of brutality & unrest, against a backdrop of systemic racism, was pretty sickening.

Our mortality is one of the last taboos in our culture. We struggle to even know how to talk about it. Join us 8pm Wed 20th May at https://t.co/cbt1TNIyvl for an evening engaging with our culture, hear experiences of different generations & explore the possibility of lasting hope

[Matt Dew-Jones @mattdewjones]

I always wondered why God put this verse in the bible, but now I know...

2 John 12 I have much to write to you, but I do not want to use paper and ink [the technology of the day], Instead, I hope to visit you and talk with you face to face, so that our joy may be complete.

[Matt Dew-Jones @mattdewjones]

Getting ready for Wed as Mary and I are interviewed by Matt Lloyd about this... join us if you’d like/watch the recording later.

[Grace Church Beckenham @BeckenhamGrace]

Mary was walking along a street in broad-daylight when she was stabbed in the back by someone who should have been in a mental institution... How do you begin to rebuild when life comes crashing down around you? Join us Wed 13th @ 8pm, livestreamed here:

Our 1st ever Grace Church Beckenham event! A 'COVID-CONVERSATION' - So great to hear how Matt Lloyd's faith helped him cope when everything changed. https://t.co/2IzvsnBkyN

Watch this space for next week's event...!

[Matt Dew-Jones @mattdewjones]

Some short musings... Hope @holland_tom thinks this is fair. Janet Daley had the same starting point today: https://t.co/7PQMXFWcUp

[Grace Church Beckenham @BeckenhamGrace]

Here’s a question for you – why are the strong of society for whom Coronavirus will probably be no worse than a bad cold – why are we serving the weak?

We’d love to know what you think. Get in touch and find out more about us at https://t.co/lTynf18Zil

[Matt Dew-Jones @mattdewjones]

Really looking forward to this on Wed!

[Grace Church Beckenham @BeckenhamGrace]

Matt Lloyd knows what it is for life to be sailing along and then for everything to change in an instant. An unexpected spinal cord injury left him starting life again. Join us, 8pm Wed 6th May at https://t.co/O8HdwiO3rl as we explore how Christianity gave Matt hope!

I've argued that Judges & Ruth fit together.

Now how Ruth & 1 Samuel fit together.

There are numerous connections, esp. between the last ch. of Ruth & 1 Sam 1.

E.g. unique phrases:

Ruth 4:15 "she is more to you than seven sons"

1 Sam 1:8 "Am I not more to you than ten sons?"
