I’m getting a series of ‘404 File not found’ responses for everything except the intro – is this me being too quick off the mark, or a problem with the site?
Hi Andy
Thanks for these. I think they are a really important starting point for a discussion about what we are attempting to do in worship.
For what it’s worth in response to Steve, I would value a serious of discussions via the blog about their content.
I suggest that this discussion should be moderated as I wouldn’t want it to degenerate into a slanging match. Although I have a number of questions/ critiques which I would want to raise, I would want to do so in a ’safe’ environment in which we were all fundamentally trying to move in the same direction.
However, I think open comment via the blog enables more folk to join the discussion. Perhaps for starters, one thread on each document?
Just on a geeky note – when I open the files, I get a large red cross at the bottom of the cover page of each one. It looks as though there was a graphic or something which has not survived the conversion to .pdf
If you want me to have a look at the original files and see whether I can sort it out, drop me an email
Many thanks for beginning to address these issues. Appreciated and potentially refreshing!
But now what we do do about it? (Be not merely hearers… but doers…)
Will you be opening up a discussion threads of any of these? In particular (having just read the BUGB “…Psalms” article) about the Psalms? And about how our supposedly “Bible-based” churches have actually abandoned the Bible’s very own song-book in our weekly worship? (Contentious and provocative statement? Well find me a self-proclaimed evangelical church (preferably two) anywhere in England that deliberately schedules a psalm each and every week in its main service…)
And, more positively, what some of us are doing to try to recover this biblical basis to our worship.
Hi Andy,
Thanks for posting these.

Try now Steve should work. I made a mistake in uploading, but should be corrected now.
Thanks, Andy. These are really good at first glance. Comments on this blog or privately?
Steve
comments can be given here or emailed to me and I’ll pass on to group.
