Ancient Epic Revived #TweetTheMedia Nearly 2000 yrs old & read by billions, Mark’s gospel is without doubt one of the most influential stories ever told. I AM MARK breathes new life into this age old tale, presenting it as it was first experienced, as a visceral one person drama

#q=%22I%20Am%20Mark%22" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tickets.edfringe.com/whats-on#q=%22… Stunning one man show. Happening at Charlotte Chapel as part of the Edinburgh fringe.

This is a different fringe event! This Sunday feel free to join in Charlotte Chapel - where I will be looking at suffering (10:30 am) and 'other religions' (7:00 pm)....and bring along a non Christian friend! Or if you are a non-Christian bring yourself! charlottechapel.org Details below...

@marcushoneysett @DanRhysJames @StuiC @bcarswell @uk_timwilson This is the thrust of what I've tried to say in my book 'Ready' that was given to everyone at FIEC Leaders Conference back in November. Hopefully also being published more generally soon. Others can comment how helpful or otherwise it might be.

@DanRhysJames @StuiC @bcarswell @uk_timwilson A lot of this conversation circulates of course around what we mean by “evangelism”. Get that wrong, and then try to force people for whom it isn’t their gift into it, and you get the opposite effect to what you want

What is an undervalued quality in a church leader?

@edstetzer @drgmcintosh Come and preach at Charlotte Chapel in Edinburgh. When might you be coming up? Having driven you from Heathrow to Hemsby I can promise you a more scenic time up here!!

@DanRhysJames What? In Edinburgh - you could have popped in. Welcome anytime.

Great to be together with gospel brothers. FIEC Edinburgh Pastors Network.

We started using the ‘Passion for Life’ training video/materials last night at our small group. Really excellent! This is a superb, free resource. If you haven’t already, check it out. Great, accessible teaching that easily led into helpful discussion and action.

@TLCdover Or ask a friend. When are you coming up?

What is the best way to get from Edinburgh airport to the Royal mile of a sunday evening?

I believe that we are living in the hardest missionary situation in the world. You may not get persecuted for sharing the Gospel in post-Christian Western Europe, but you won't see many converts, either. It's hard soil to sow in. wp.me/pdWfA-3rA via @kouya

@anurbanpastor Praise God for your faithfulness and big gospel hearts. And we go on praying for Peckham.

Christianity was and is wholly different. It insists that we are saved not by what we do, but by what God in Christ has done for us in history—in his incarnation, life, death, resurrection, and ascension. bit.ly/decline-renewa… via @timkellernyc and @gospelinlife

We need to have the beauty of Christ arrest our affections so that he makes all competition seem puny in comparison. This intentionality starts with an open Bible, a heart inclined to God in prayer, and sober honesty about the danger. thegspl.co/3DheGTf

@CHatzaw Global Humility by Andy McCullough

theology twitter, what's a good book on mission/evangelism/crosscultural mission etc. that has fresh, sensitive perspectives but can also appeals to more conservative/trad. readers?

@NeilTodman1 If the book is anything like its author, it will be warm, authentic, and deeply encouraging.

Thank you @BBC for a really superb Messiah performance this evening. Stunning musically and visually. Really appreciated.

@TrevArcher Trev mate. Looks as if you've slept through the day again and have woken to sunset.

Chessington sunrise!
