@DanRhysJames @JDSayersMish @DidcotGrace @DanRhysJames before you jump ship from X, tell me your most-loved "oldies" at EMCC... I want to sing more hymns here, but would love to know what your church love to sing!

@MikeTylerSport hey @MikeTylerSport - have you done (or read) any work that looks into the role of gestures in preaching contexts?

[Peter Skerratt @pskerratt]

@timsuffield Thank you for this - a timely word that I needed to hear as I prepare to preach this Sunday. Keep up the good work!

[Peter Skerratt @pskerratt]

@DanRhysJames We didn't actually preach it as one whole but this is how Weima makes the link. Hope it helps!

@DanRhysJames I seem to remember these from John dickson being helpful: https://t.co/zdeeOofn1k

@Jonathan_Black_ I enjoy your tweets & need your help! I think I read you once questioning the "mixed prophecy" view (e.g. Grudem/Storms) in favour of a more traditional pentecostal account. If i remember this rightly, have you any reading you could direct me to on this topic?!

@uk_timwilson I know I'm late to this conversation but one practical kindness that really helped was the Pastor (or more likely his wife!) drawing up a list of local "key spots" - e.g. what parks to visit with children, shops to use, where to go for an outdoors walk etc. It helped us bed in.

[Peter Skerratt @pskerratt]

@AndrewTRoycroft we hope it catches the eye of passers-by, as well as using it as a prompt/aid for conversations with regulars who stop by. We've not tried preaching in that context (as part of book table), although we ran two organised open-airs a year (Easter/CHristmas) where we did preach.

[Peter Skerratt @pskerratt]

@AndrewTRoycroft You'll be amazed who God brings along :)

[Peter Skerratt @pskerratt]

@AndrewTRoycroft - occasionally we'd have a "theme" for a few weeks (e.g. 7 reasons to reconsider Christianity), where we'd have a new point on chalk board/buy a batch of particular book to give out

People get angry about really stupid insignificant stuff on here. I’m trying to save my outrage for stuff that really matters - stuff like this. https://t.co/5LfnA2vf2i
