And that is precisely what many of us love about you.

Please, never lose it.

How do we ‘pray a psalm’ over Zimbabwe? I’m just wondering what people mean when they say this?

Don’t the Psalms have a fixed meaning at a specific point in time that we then apply through the lens of the gospel? I find them hard work — when I read them — and that was some time ago.

But what will happen as oil extraction actually slows down each and every year after the peak? Put simply, the economic consequences will be catastrophic. It will be like the 1970’s oil crisis, but this time it is here to stay.

I don’t know about praying in the strict sense, but e.g. that Psalm 52 Angela is now so pleased with, indeed originated in the Doeg-inspired massacre but is very readily applicable to all situations where wicked men appear to be getting away with who knows what.  Preached on it last month and scared the pants off some!

Is it available online to listen to?

Thanks for asking Andrew, I’m flattered ;) Unfortunately none of our church’s sermons is online; and although I believe its main 9.15 and 6.30 service sermons are recorded, the ones at 11am (where I spoke) aren’t.

However if you (or anyone else here) PM me I’ll send you an outline of what I said.
