Greetings fellow Indexers. We had a great time Sunday night listening to the music of Clive Parnell, meeting new folks, and catching up after a summer filled with numerous and distinct experiences for all of us. We're looking forward to the return of our Heriot-Watt contingent who still manage to wait until October to start.
A brief word about this blog. There should be numerous posts each week provided by the wonderful team of folks who have been affectionately known as the core team. There should be a variety of posts, and styles of course. There will also be information about upcoming Index evenings with some thoughts and questions on the topic that we will be looking at. And, finally, there will also be activity or event information on here so that we all know what is going on. Currently the link to our homepage is working and hopefully will remain so, that gives a bit more info than can be found here.
We are going to wait one more week before we start properly into our programme for the year so that everyone should be around when we begin our study of God on 1 Oct at the welcome weekend. That being the case, we will be having a one-off teaching topic this coming Sunday that will in some way be related to a sermon that will be given on the Sunday of the welcome weekend based on Ephesians 5.15-16. This week we will be looking at the life of Adoniram Judson. He was a man who lived to die.
Judson was the first American overseas missionary (and he was Baptist too - changing his view after 5 months on a boat crossing half the world) and went to Burma (now Myanmar). No different than you and me, he lived with eternity in view and the Lord mightily used him. During our time together Sunday night we will consider what it means and what it looks like to live to die.
