MKC 2006 -- Telling the Sermon on the Mount like it really is

Spent time away at an awesomely challenging men’s convention up at Katoomba Friday night through all day Saturday, looking at the Sermon on the Mount. The two points that stuck most with me were

  1. the concept of living for an audience of one (God) in everything, and;
  2. the ‘unheeded’ Christ, in that the influence of his teachings (so often) have ridiculously little influence on the lives of those who profess to follow him (specifically, the idea of loving enemies… our embrace of this seems to always be conditional, in that it’s very rarely loving enemies at all! Guilty of this as most people…)

I was… very impressed with the teaching and with the fellowship and everything (except that bloody keyboard that sounded as though it were from the wrong decade). ’twas a great weekend, looking forward to next year!
