Whilst I've been uploading things, I thought I would put another version of +Gene's sermon online. Again, this is an audio only version for those with dial-up and not broadband.
If you've missed it the first time around, then here it is.
I've also added this to the Audio podcast that you can find through iTunes and […]

Here is the closing sequence of last Sunday's service with +Gene. I'm almost finished uploading video. I'll post the full interview tomorrow.
