Mark O'Donoghue at Summer Session #1 asked us to do some prep for SS#2. Mark, being of English origin, probably meant homework, but we'll forgive him on that one. This was the task he set us this week.
Look carefully in the office, in the city, at lunchtime, on the train/bus, even at home, and whilst you are doing that ask this question about those who don't follow Jesus:
What do they live for? What excites them? What is it that people think about? What is it that they live for?
Come up with three or four idols that people in Sydney live for and for each one, what does it show they have not understood about the gospel?

2009 Summer Sesssion
Our 2009 Summer Session (the old Summer School) will be on how to do ministry in the city. That is, how to do ministry in an urban environment.
We've asked Mark O'Dohonue to speak and offer wisdom and insight. He'll open the Scriptures at the beginning of the evening. Mark is on the staff team at Bishopsgate in the heart of London, so it well qualified to speak on city and urban ministry. Mark will speak about the unique advantages of city ministry and how to minimise the problems of city ministry. There will be an opportunity to ask questions and discuss the great opportunities that we have in the city. Mark will speak at the first two Summer Session evenings - Tuesday January 20 and 27.
I will be taking the last two Summer Session evenings - Tuesday February 3 and 10.
On all four evenings we will be sharing a meal together beforehand. It's a great opportunity to gather for fellowship and to think about how to do ministry, how to best reach the city, how to overcome the problems of city ministry, how to make the most of the great advantages that we have located right in the centre of our city.
