Well here we go, I'm fairly new to this game but I'm going to try to blog reasonably regularly to chart life and record thoughts. (Although my track record on keeping a journal or diary is completely rubbish so this may be my first and last post.)

First a bit about me, just in case your interested. I'm married to Sue and have two boys, Thomas and Luke, I live in North London and I'm on the staff of a large Anglican church. I used to be the youthworker, but now facilitate what we call the Emerging Generation or Emerging Church or whatever you want to call those who are exploring what it means to be followers of Jesus in the 21st century.

I got ordained in July 2003, and am really keen to be part of a church that really engages with issues of community, worship and mission in ways that provide a "relevant challenge" to our culture.

I've started blogging 'cos I recently spent a weekend with an amazing couple called Kevin and Tracy Rains from Cincinnatti, and love his blog.

That'll do for now, more another time (maybe.)
