This Weeks Cast
This weeks cast is the first where we have a chat about what we’ve read. We attempt to give you some background information on Acts, set the scene so to speak. We do a quick wizz stop tour of what we’ve read, this will be helpful if your just joining us or maybe missed a day. Some of our random thoughts of what stood out for us are shared and we wrap up with the question section where will have a good at answering any questions people had while reading. e.g. What where they doing selecting a replacement for Judas by casting lots? This is a pretty quick section this week as you’ve let us off the hook with no questions.

Guys, I really love the idea of this podcast. I stumbled upon it while googling and I’m really pleased I did, I will be joining in the reading (well, at least I will try to keep it up).
One thing though guys, what you are saying is great, and really entertaining (Rich, I liked your joke), but the quality of the recording is not the best. It seemed to be better at first than previous ones (I tracked back and caught up), but got really bad in the middle. I think that this will put people off.
I don’t know anything about such things and I’m sure you are doing your best, but if this could be improved I’m sure a lot more people would get into this.
Keep up the good work guys, looking forward to next weeks.
Tim, while I’m not sure that it’s a good idea that you encourage Rich’s jokes, it is great to have you with us *smile*
I’m sorry, sorry, sorry for the poor quality, of parts, of this weeks Lunchcast. It’s may fault, I think I know what I did wrong with the recording and, with a bit of luck, next weeks should be a lot better.
I’ve never done anything like this before but I’m learning (and Gaz is trying his best to direct me) and hopefully we will get there in the end.
Please do bare with us in these first few weeks as we try and get things right.
Frustrating, it is… grrr, technology.
Tim, once again, great to have you with us, I’ll look forward to some of your thoughts in the coming weeks.
Already Tim I regard you with great respect, appreciation of good jokes is hard to find.
As for the quality, it’s nice to say that it is nothing to do with me
although my mic is pretty awful (donations welcome to buy a better one)
Rob and co are the tecky people and no doubt we endeavor to improve things as time goes on. I have full confidence in them.
great to have you on board any way, look forward to hearing your thoughts as we go.
Respect is reciprocated

I made it through today’s readings. I’m quite impressed. I may even come up with some ‘thoughts’ later in the week.
Reading chapter 19 this morning it struck me that Christianity was called “The Way”. I like that *smile*
My real question is to do with the little tip bit of a story at the beginning of today’s passage. Paul came across some believers in Corinth and asks them if they had received the Holy Spirit (seems to me that Paul would have discerned they hadn’t anyway). From this it seems that you can follow “The Way” and have not received the Holy Spirit.
Also, there was a clear sign when they had received the Holy Spirit. Both these things tend to be played down in Churches today. What are we to make of this?
Any thoughts?
Another interesting thing I noticed about Acts this week was how they seemed to consider their most valuable resource; the people.
Today, we want the coolest, most gifted people in our Church. Why? Because we want our Church grow and to impact where we are. A great motive.
But the early Church seemed to send out their “coolest, most gifted people”; they wanted The Church grow and impact the world.
I’m sure I’m looking at this far too simplistically. What do people think?
