| 8th May 2008 | 132 : Being Yourself I really enjoy a good game of squash, even though I’m not particularly good at the game. A few years ago, I bought a video featuring the former world number 1 player, Jhanghir Khan. He glides around the court with such poise and control and, with a flick of the wrist, projects the ball to exacltly the place he wants it to go. With feline nimbleness he is able to reach into every corner of the court and still return to the centre, ready for the next shot. |  |
| 28th Apr 2008 | 131 : Icon or Idol Orthodox Christianity is renowned for its use of icons in worship. An icon is not, in itself, an object of worship, but an object which transports the worshipper beyond itself to the God we seek to worship. The problem comes when the icon becomes the object of worship as if it possesses divine properties in itself. Then it ceases to be an icon and becomes an idol. |  |
| 18th Apr 2008 | 130 : In God we Trust If, like us, you go overseas for a holiday, then you get a chance to see the news through a different set of eyes than BBC1. We had the pleasure of CNN and the BBC World Service. I was particularly taken by the coverage of the Presidential Elections in the USA which is now a battle between the Republican, John McCain and the two Democrats, Hillary Clinton and Barak Obama. |  |
| 25th Mar 2008 | 129 : Nothing happened? If you ever go to Lee Abbey, the retreat centre in Devon, you may see this sign in an adjacent field. I’ve no idea who put the sign there and no idea what they were expecting should happen – but whatever it was, it didn’t! |  |
| 16th Mar 2008 | 128 : Weighing the Evidence Today is Palm Sunday and the first instalment of the new BBC TV drama “The Passion” has been shown on prime-time TV. Millions of people across the nation will have seen this episode. Two thousand years ago, crowds of people watched as Jesus rode a donkey into Jerusalem on the first Palm Sunday. Different people in the crowd would have had different views as to what they made of Jesus as He made his dramatic entry into the town of his crucifixion. No doubt the same mixed feelings would have been expressed by today’s TV audiences. |  |
| 9th Mar 2008 | 127 : Church is for life … You have no doubt been stuck behind one of those cars with a sticker in the back window which says, ‘A dog is for life, not just for Christmas’. Well equally true would be the slogan, ‘Church is for life, not just for Sundays’. But how many churchgoers in Britain think that way today? |  |
| 27th Feb 2008 | 126 : And the winner is … No doubt you have watched one of those TV programmes like 'Strictly Come Dancing' where, after the contestants have performed their act, the winners are announced. It has become the norm for the presenter to say those immortal words, “And the winner is …”. This is followed by a seemingly eternal silence, just as long as the shaking during last night’s earthquake, after which they announce the name of the winner. If you’re anything like me you’re saying to yourself during the silence, “Oh, get on with it”. |  |
