A guide to Christian worship for novice churchgoers

Excellent article here about church going at Christmas for those who don't normally go (12 million considering it compared with 3 million that go regularly)
I did wonder today how many extra people were there who don't normally come.
I also thought it was a great sermon on John 1 v1.
I wonder what the non-regular people thought?

2 things...

One is urgent- I need ideas for an auction of promises. Deadline tomorrow. What can I offer?

The other is, what can I do with satsuma peel? I can't compost it as it's too acidic and we're eating so many, I really don't want to bin it. Do you have any ideas?
I have heard previously that dried citrus peel makes really good firelighters but as we don't have an open fire, that isn't much use to us.

Essential 100- Your Way into the Heart of the Bible

This has been the book chosen to be followed by our church and housegroups for the lead up to Easter. I started it last night and was surprised.
1. It's a very poor quality book. The paper quality is close to that of Izal
2. In my head it was a book of the "top 100" bible quotes. Something you could dip into and learn off by heart. It's not that. It's a book telling you to read certain parts of the bible and then analysing very basically what you've just read.
3. It's in chronological order. I'm starting with what seems like a lot of Genesis. This is fine but I don't have the attention span to be methodical. And if I did, I'd read the bible in a year in preference.
4. It reminds me very much of daily reading notes.
It'll be interesting to see how it instigates sermons and housegroup debate.
