Gis'us a job

Not a great deal out there at the moment. I did have one interview last week for a part-time pastoral worker in Harehills but the successful candidate was one with more pastoral experience than me.
There is not much in the pipeline at the moment. I am praying about a job with Eden but I am not sure if it is where I am supposed to be. Full-time setting up a new team sounds like a job and a half which would not really work at the moment. Still it is worth exploring because some-times people see the attraction in paying less money out for a part-timer.

Candidating update

The first required form is in and I am now working on the remaining forms
I have my first reported service on November 9th. The 2nd should be sometime in December.
The sessions at college have been helpful and the process does not seem too "heavy" at the moment. The challenge seems to be one of being patient. Everything does take a long time.
One thing I have to consider is whether I should go for full or part-time training. Here the options are not straightforward because no-one can be specific about either how long it will take or where you would be required to attend. This uncertainty is unsettling for everyone who is going through the process at the moment.

Themes in Theology

The final assessed module for my Masters is on Themes in Theology which covers such hefty issues as God, Trinity, Jesus, & Spirit. There is only 2 of us so we get the advantage of close tuition but it also means that the sessions can be arranged to suit. This sometimes means I only have to travel to Sheffield once a week. There is loads of reading and enjoyable. Not sure what I am going to do my assignment on but it is definitely going to be challenging.
