Faith Works

Went to a faithworks seminar... They are a brilliant organisation trying to encourage local churches all over the place to make a difference to their communities.
The new thing they added to my thinking was the idea of the grassroots organisation like antipartheid, like Martin Luther King we need to rediscover christianity as a grassroots organisation. Bottom up and top down making a difference in the everyday and the public realm.
I have a contact to follow up needless to say.
On a more amusing front one of the speakers today had a go at batman who spent the daytime as a businessman making money out of the poor and night time beating up those same poor people, the ultimate capitalist superhero and the antithesis of faithworks.
