Biographies

I love reading biographies, here a few of the recent ones i've read.

After finishing reading Matthew Pinscnt's biography 'A lifetime in a race' whilst on holiday (a good honest tale of what it takes to be at the top of your sport) i have started reading Jonathan Edwards' biography 'A time to jump' which was bought for me many years ago by i can't remember who. Anyway it has a great quote by Mark Twain which was timely as Andy (our new minister) and me discussed some of our thinking around 'The Last Word and The Word After That.'

"Most people are bothered by those passages in Scripture which they cannot understand; but as for me, i have noticed that the passages that trouble me most are the ones i do understand."

Mark Twain
