Cabin lane.

Yesterday, I preached in Cabin lane church on two verses in mathew, "Judge not that you be not Judged" and where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I in the midst of them. Somehow, judging by the reaction, it seems to have been appropriate.

Early morning trip and holiday.

An early morning trip this morning to the industrial estate following Andrew D who was returning a van that had been hired for New wine. I am off to stornoway in a couple of weeks to see an old friend.

An acknowledgement has arrived

I have an email. It is an acknowledgement of the arrival of the chapters of my book that I sent to them. They say that they will go to the Editorial department and they will get back to me in due course. At least they bothered to reply so that shows that they show respect for those who submit material to them, which is more than some do. Having looked at their web site, I see that they are reformed. They say that authors may not be reformed, but they do not accept material to the contrary. They also use STL to distribute books on the USA. I pointed out to them that I am an OM er and I included the blurb that George Verwer wrote for me. When I sent the chapters, I wrote a covering letter explaining what the book is about and a line or two about each chapter. This is the advice I got from Sinclair Ferguson, whom I knew very slightly a long time ago when he and his wife were attending what is now my sending church.

publish

Today, I am sending a few chapters of my book and a letter explaining what the book is about to a publisher at the advice of Sinclair. I do not expect a quick response, but I am excited that I have got this far.
