A sad weekend saying farewell to Adam and Gen who have been leading our youth work here for over five years. I will truly miss them. They are off to theological cemetery and then Vicardom in the good old C of E. As a gift I collected together a pile of books to send them on their way-Peterson, MacDonald, The letters of Catherine Booth and John Newton and various others essentials.
John Wesley said he was a man of one book but what if you were allowed just one other. Here is my question for you:
"If a pastor was to read only one book in their time at college to prepare them for ministry what should it be?"
