I like Jazz. Last night, the Richard Maegraith Band made some sweet Jazz! It was the launch of ‘Free Running‘. Gary Daley played the Fender Rhodes to perfection. Jonathon Zwartz ran free on double bass. Tim Firth smashed it on drums. Kristin Berardi scat subliminal sounds. And Richard owned the floor on tenor sax. Enjoy the bootleg:
Why do people get glory? Because of who they are and/or what they’ve done. A politician or monarch or employer will get glory because of who they are. A successful athlete or cure-finding scientist or trophy-winning chef will get glory because of what they’ve done.
Why does God deserve all glory? It’s because of who he is AND what he has done.
I’m looking forward to Mark Driscoll’s visit to Australia in August 2008. Driscoll speaks about Jesus more than most preachers and I’m thankful to God for the way He has worked through him in Seattle and more broadly through the internet.
I’ve been getting a stack of people landing on my site (see bottom for the list) looking for information about Driscoll’s speaking engagements while in Australia. So here is an attempt to bring them all onto the one page. There are some other events that aren’t yet public (will link when they are) and as far as I can tell all the ones below are public. Let me know if you have any other dates to add.
The Resurgence have just launched a new website for their publishing arm Re:Lit. Re:Lit recently published Vintage Jesus, and will soon be releasing Death by Love (both books are by Mark Driscoll & Gerry Breshears).
Among their library I noticed that Total Church (by Tim Chester & Steve Timmis) will be republished by Re:Lit in September. A series of short books called A book you’ll actually read (by Mark Driscoll) will be published shortly. See below for videos on each of the books:

3 Random things: #1) No Saturday morning sleep-in. I’ve been up for a few hours helping some friends move house. I enjoy helping friends move, but I’d hate to be a removalist! #2) I spent a lot of time in the car by myself yesterday. I listened to 3 of my favourite sermons. The series is by Kanishka Raffel called LOVING JESUS from Katoomba Easter Convention 2004. ‘Underestimating God’s Love’ from Luke 15:11-32, ‘Underestimating Discipleship’ from Luke 14:15-35, ‘Underestimating the worth of wealth’ from Luke 16:1-13. I didn’t get time to listen to ‘Underestimating God’s word’ from Luke 16:19-31. The series is very challenging. #3) Have a good weekend.
