Here I am...

...blogging on my mum's (I kid you not) new MacBook! Now I come home in the evenings and instead of finding my parents chatting about the day's events over cups of tea I find them sitting at separate laptops IMing each other and planning holidays in Alaska. The art of conversation is dying.

Well, blogland has been down the list of priorities for the last few weeks as I sank into a deep well of Word Alive preparation. The High School Musical themed Bible Overview went down well, as did the summing up the message with song titles. I particularly liked "Walk like an Egyptian" for the Exodus, "Oops I did it again" for Judges and "The Final Countdown" for the New Heavens and the New Earth. It totally reminded me of how great the Bible is: remember when you first saw how the Bible all points to Jesus - it was great to get some of that feeling again.

Word Alive was also great for freezing walks on the beach with Anna, waking up every morning with the lovely Pod, great talks on Hebrews from all the student speakers, but a special mention goes out to lovely Roger Carswell who did a great job on the last morning: let's keep running the race by fixing our eyes on Jesus. I also got my first taste of cyber-bullying, as the Relay workers, unprovoked, gave me the bumps: 30 is 2 to many for my current age by the way: and then posted the evidence on the internet: search on youtube for "Mo gets the bumps". They are very very bad boys, and Andy Shudall says I need to insist that I get more respect from them.

Now I am back in the province, seeing friends, watching rubbish TV and drinking tea with my mum. The ideal holiday. Excited about the Apprentice tonight, and Anna arriving tomorrow...

Big Up.
