Baptist Assembly 2008

Baptist Assembly 2008 This year's Assembly was in Blackpool. It was, as expected, a mixed-bag. Craig Gardiner's Whitley Lecture was excellent, as was John Colwell's George Beasley-Murray Lecture (I'll blog some more on these later). It was good meeting new people and catching up with old friends - this seems to be the best reason for going to Assembly. I made it to the Regent's Park College reunion. My main issues with Assembly are the main sessions. There are the special moments where we recognise new ministers and we remember those who have died.

Assembly Reflections Several bloggers reflecting on the Baptist Assembly. Andy here, Geoff here. I confess to enjoying the annual gathering. Being in the Norbreck Castle made it easier for socialising/networking and catching up with people compared to other venues where people are rushing back to separate hotels (plus the advantage of not having to find food places at 5pm, and places to go after hours). In terms of the content of the Assembly, I've heard the usual mix of moans and joys. There are things I thought could have been better, but I never know if that's about where I'm at at the moment or the event itself!
