Weekly Bibliography

Here's a running list of some of the interesting things I've been reading this week on the web:

Information about Rev. Geoffrey Black
Unanimously approved by the Executive Council of the United Church of Christ
The UCC will elect a new General Minister and President this Summer at the General Synod in June. This past week Rev. Geoffrey Black (currently serving as New York Conference Minister) was unanimously confirmed by the 90-member Executive Council to be the candidate for General Minister and President. Follow these two links to learn more about Rev. Geoffrey Black.

Youth and Young Adult Interim Report
How do put together a Youth and Young Adult Report in today's world? Youtube, of course! Watch this fascinating report from our Interim Minister for Youth and Young Adults where our young people answer the questions: What does God dream for you? What does God hope for the United Church of Christ?

Rev. Kate Huey's Weekly Seeds
Weekly Seeds is a wonderful, recurring column from i.ucc.org that gives an indepth reflection on Sunday's sermon scriptures. This week the article focuses on Jeremiah's reflection on the new covenant that "will be written on our hearts". Even though I didn't preach on the text, it is well worth reading...and bookmarking so that you can come back each week.

Vicar of Dibley Jokes
The sermon started this week with a reference from the 90's British sitcom "The Vicar of Dibley" including the end-jokes that followed the credits on every single episode. Here is a 10-minute YouTube collection of some of the best of those jokes. Enjoy.
