I had a lot of comments – must of them positive. The one that made me smile was ‘that was … mmm… interesting … thanks’

A number of people were encouraging as they shared that this worship experience had caused them to think of well known liturgy and words in a new, fresh, or different way. That was one of my aims, so I was quite chuffed about that!

The best comment came from Jeremy … the SEITE principal: ‘Rob … I don’t think that’s ever been done before!’ That was said in a very positive way and I took it that way – it was good to feel groundbreaking for a very short time – of course this has been done before, I’m sure of it.

Anyway – it was a learning experience all around, I do not know this liturgy as well as I should before I start to play with it. It has also given me another personal challenge – the language is all very ‘rural’ as you would expect – with talk of shepherds and stuff.

I want to take some time to see if I could urbanise this. In the last 2 days people have given me 2 ideas that may work:
the judgment of God like a speed camera
strayed off course like a broken supermarket trolley.

There must be more … ideas on a postcard (well in the comments will do) please.

If you are interested, I have uploaded the service I took last night here, although for copyright reasons I have not put the music there, and anyway its easier to choose your own!

If you take a look, I would value comments and ideas for improvement.
