I look forward to further reflections on this; the North is much in my mind. (Bethany, where I first heard you preach, is in dire straits. There's no necessary connection between the first and second half of that sentence, though.)<br />If you could email me an email address (to g.benfold@ntlworld.com) there's a simple, non-blog related question you may be able to answer for me, but best not in public.<br />Machen's comments on schools is provocative - and, once someone's said it, so obviously true.

Second, though, I've never been a pastor in the North who absconded to the South. We always said if we left Aylesbury it would be to go North, and I did preach at a northern church 'with a view' (as they say) in 1997. Last time I heard, they were still debating whether to have me for a second time... No northern church, except that one, has ever shown any interest.Gary Benfoldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11371307545924645897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17160917.post-55006695778774069682010-08-20T12:21:39.995+01:002010-08-20T12:21:39.995+01:00Hmm... up here the complaint is that too many prea...Hmm... up here the complaint is that too many preachers go to the south of England. As you know I was born in the street where you live and now I find myself up near Lancaster.

If there are judgements on nations, as some of us have been debating recently, it is surely the withdrawal of good and godly preachers of the Word.Pete Eatonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17160917.post-18882663819743507612010-08-18T12:25:19.432+01:002010-08-18T12:25:19.432+01:00Interesting.
