Singing in Brighton
I'm going down to Brighton&Hove on Sunday to sing at a Midsummer celebration. Taking with me two guys I've just recently started playing music with, so will do a set with them and a solo set.
If you're in the vicinity, come along!

Maggi has kept a blog since September 2003, writing about theology and faith, the arts and literature, and a little about life and random nonsense...
In an increasingly secularised society few people have a good working knowledge of the Bible. Yet a great deal of our culture is built on stories or ideas that come from the Bible. Literature, art, music, language and even the fabric of our society - such as our justice system - are built on Christian concepts and biblical references. The Writing on the Wall provides a fascinating introduction to the Bible's best-known, and most influential, stories. Each chapter gives some background to the text of the Bible, and shows how the stories have become enmeshed in Western culture. Adam and Eve, the ten plagues of Egypt, The Prodigal Son and Mary Magdalene all feature - along with how the Bible has influenced everyone from Shakespeare to Monty Python, and Caravaggio to Banksy. 
Giving It Up explores the Lenten idea of 'giving up', taking it beyond the traditional idea of simply abstaining from something, and suggesting instead that what we need to give up is our existing ideas about God. With a daily readings for each day of Lent, from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday, it follows the heroes of the Bible who had to give up their own too-small ideas about God.
This is Maggi’s bestselling book of daily readings for each day of Advent, Christmas and Epiphany. Advent is the beginning of the Church year, and marks the anticipation of the coming Messiah. These readings explore how beginnings and endings in our own lives are illuminated by the different Gospel narratives of Christ's coming.

My main concern is the lack of verification of the healings that Todd Bentley claimed were associated with his ministry. These ‘failures of memory’ are very telling. A friend of mine who had met Todd assured me that he is not the sort to person to make things up. But I would have much more confidence in Todd if he did appear to be more transparent and admitted that he had ‘bent’ the truth when it came to at least some of these miracles. Don’t you think?
ah,,,Mr Bently….wheres your faith now…go back to the original pack rats that invented you…I.m sure in the name of God they can re-invent you and package you under a new and revived man of God….sad for those that you left in your wake.I wonder what Christ wrote in the sand?…
todd bentley come back many true belivers miss u
many people fall….but truth is truth and if you investigate Todds teachings you will see the truth is distorted, so i pray for him…i bought Todd at first so I have been at his defence but through Gods help and elders that look over me i saw the truth, after going to lakeland three times.
give the guy a break.. are you all perfect? I felt that annointing come right thru my t.v. night after night after night. That weighty presence of God followed me to work everyday. There is no denying it. so go pick on someone else.
