expressing spiritual stuff through art. Art: it's not just the medium, the end result, the imagination or the skill or what people think of it that defines it, it is as much the human process of human re-creation that express the indefinable essence of what it means to be human. To engage and to try and appreciate art is a journey of embracing community; trying to see beyond yourself and your own world to the world somebody else experiences. It is intensely spiritual, it is the language of God. It embodies the mission of God and the human response.

Preacher: Esther Longe, Scripture: John 10:1-10
A very obvious image for the text. The emphasis of the service was on God’s care for us his children. The gateway seemed to be a strong feature in my thoughts, with the idea that Jesus is the one who is the gate, which is a central thrust of Jesus words.
