Preaching to the Anglican Clergy of Tasmania Part III

Cool things:

  • Met lots of lovely, gospel-hearted, supportive women pastors
  • One pastor who had gotten angry at me for something I didn't intend to do approached me and sought to resolve the matter at the beginning of the conference. They didn't want this misunderstanding to get in the way of them benefiting from my preaching
  • I got a book called 'Supporting Christians at Work' by Mark Greene which looks like just the thing for me and my church
  • I really like the idea of having a good solid church service each morning at a conference, rather than getting all sloppy
  • I don't think there was much I said that wasn't in the prayer book stuff we recited before my sermons. This is a good think about the prayer book.
  • (I don't think there was much I said that wasn't in the prayer book stuff we recited before my sermons. This is also bad think about the prayer book: they don't listen when it's in the prayer book, but only when it's preached.)
  • The bishop set his vision for the Tassie Diocese, and it was a good, exciting, Christ-honouring vision
  • There was a lot of talk about 'giving the Diocese a language for talking about discipleship.' I think this is really positive.
