Every term, about 20 of us get together to keep each other sharp on an area of theology to do with church music.
We’re mostly full-time church musicians, though there are a few pastors who come along too, who help keep our feet on the ground. Last term we were very privileged to have David Cook from Sydney, who came to speak to us. I wish I could say that he came all the way to London just for us, but he didn’t — we just managed to grab him in between two other speaking engagements that day.
I’d also love to be able to say that David loves music, but his big passion is musical theatre, so I don’t know if that counts. That was a joke. Not a side-splitter, but I’ve just finished camp, it’s the end of term, and my sense of humour’s running on vapour, so that’s as good as it’s going to get.
