Second Emmaus Supper

I spent the morning discussing pub theology with James first at the Alderbury Coffee Shop and then at the Lord Nelson where we had a light soup lunch.  Tonight we had the second of our Emmaus Scripture Suppers.  Rosemary cooked and brought a delicious chicken casserole with rice, Cynthia some green salad, Chris some "Harrow Mess" and Bill and Val a delightful New York style cheese cake.  Our contribution was a selection of cheeses, crackers and wine and coffee.  A pleasant evening although we spent more time discussing horticultural and church issues than the scripture surrounding Cynthia's sermon.  I was feeling quite tired and "brain-dead" this evening so I was quite happy to let the conversation meander its own way without being too structured.  I shall be quite happy for the future evenings to be similarly informal and unstructured as sometimes we can be too structured in our devotions and not allow God to speak to us through the relaxed atmosphere of the meal table.
