Being Presbyterian

The basic human act of kindness and compassion, there's an app for that. (from the comments)

Hello, welcome to the July blog! The rainy season continues, the manse is closer than ever to being ready and we have now lived in Grenada for six months. And yes, the debate about living in Grenadian time continues between Ann and me just as it will for the rest of our lives. What a gift!

Being on Oreon's prayer list because of some passing thought I'd shared on a Web site got me thinking about how social media sites like Facebook and Twitter are changing how we do church. Already Facebook has provided a new way to promote a church and keep members of the congregation informed about events. Hundreds of churches, and small groups within churches, have formed Facebook groups or fan pages for that reason. Google "Facebook and church" and you'll even discover plenty of church-marketing experts who will help your church get on Facebook and show you how to use it to advertise your church's programs.

But, if you are a Presbyterian who understands and appreciates the nuances and idiosyncrasies of our Presbyterian system of government, and you don't mind some humor about it in music, then you will probably get a kick out of this collection of seven songs.
