The Penniless Lawyer: June 2011
http://andy-crisp.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
Having nothing, yet possessing everything. Sunday, 26 June 2011. 1426 Ways to Grow Your Church. Well, one way actually. But it's found in 1 Corinthians 14:26 (look it up). Too many Christians come to church as consumers and not as contributors. The New Testament suggests that church is more like a 'bring and share' meal, rather than a trip to a restaurant. I wrote the hymn below to the tune of ' We plough the fields and scatter. An old school assembly classic)! So bring them out! Do you not feel anointed?

The Penniless Lawyer: A Visit to The Broody Babes
http://andy-crisp.blogspot.com/2014/01/the-broody-babes.html
Having nothing, yet possessing everything. Monday, 13 January 2014. A Visit to The Broody Babes. We found plenty to inspire and challenge us when we visited an all female community house in Leeds on Saturday. Although the six university students perhaps saw us as 'community experts' because we've lived in community with the Jesus army for many years, I've no doubt that we learnt more from them than they did from us. A simple love for God. What impressed me the most was their simple love for God and their...

This page is about our local Jesus Fellowship congregation. We’ve been in Coventry since 1979, meeting for worship, spreading the gospel, making disciples, building Christian community.

A Christian Community website, and a blog. A WordPress.com weblog. Promise House Christian Community. The Long Song part 1. April 3, 2013. I have been in Sheffield for a month now out of 6 that I expect to spend here. People have been ‘strangers in a strange land’ throughout history, far from friends and family for many reasons. Not that I am far from home or without friends that I knew here before). What I wonder is how replaceable relationships are. Functionally the latter is true; migrants can flourish.

The Penniless Lawyer: Social Media and God
http://andy-crisp.blogspot.com/2011/06/social-media-and-god.html
Having nothing, yet possessing everything. Sunday, 19 June 2011. Social Media and God. I've written a hymn about social media. It's to the tune of 'Take my life and let it be'. Feel free to comment, react or even suggest another verse . . . Take my phone and Facebook use. Let them show and share good news. Status updates show real. We won't follow worldly ways -. Wasting moments, hours, days. Gossip, boasting, flirty pics. Grieve your Spirit, make you sick. To your tune, we will not dance. I like the son...

Er…would you like an (anointed) digestive biscuit? June 23, 2011. It happened again. Last night my friend Simon (name changed) brought yet another Polish guy to our house church meeting; a man who. God works through these really rather powerfully. Had not been to a similar cell group before. God told Simon, again, to offer the man a biscuit from the pack he was carrying. Simon, as last time, didn’t want to, but when the Almighty pressed the point he felt he really had to. June 16, 2011. Simon didn’...
