lol just revisited this one and saw the RE teacher messages – I showed this to my classes in RE too (and recommend the site to everyone in my department regularly):) Jon – you should do a book especially aimed at RE teachers!

Ha, I used to teach RE Mark and one of the kids drew Bart Simpson on a cross.

I’m an RE teacher and we’ve been looking at some images of Jesus recently, so I thought I’d show the kids this cartoon and number 746. They loved them. They were pretty sure Jacko was worshipped now he was dead. But they thought that before he died, people thought he was a wierdo.

In the words of Michael Jackson…

There’s A Place In
Your Heart
And I Know That It Is Love
and this place could be Much
Brighter Than Tomorrow

And If You Really Try
You’ll Find There’s No Need
To Cry
In This Place You’ll Feel
That There’s No Hurt Or Sorrow

There Are Ways
To Get There
If You Care Enough
For The Living
Make A Little Space
Make A Better Place…

Heal The World
Make It A Better Place
For You And For Me
And The Entire Human Race
There Are People Dying
If You Care Enough
For The Living
Make A Better Place
For You And For Me

If You Want To Know Why
There’s A Love That
Cannot Lie
Love Is Strong
It Only Cares For
Joyful Giving

If We Try
We Shall See
In This Bliss
We Cannot Feel
Fear Or Dread
We Stop Existing And
Start Living

Then It Feels That Always
Love’s Enough For
Us Growing
Make A Better World
Make A Better World…

Heal The World
Make It A Better Place
For You And For Me
And The Entire Human Race
There Are People Dying
If You Care Enough
For The Living
Make A Better Place
For You And For Me

And The Dream We Were
Conceived In
Will Reveal A Joyful Face
And The World We
Once Believed In
Will Shine Again In Grace
Then Why Do We Keep
Strangling Life

Wound This Earth
Crucify Its Soul
Though It’s Plain To See
This World Is Heavenly
Be God’sGlow

We Could Fly So High
Let Our Spirits Never Die
In My Heart
I Feel You Are All
My Brothers

Create A World With
No Fear
Together We’ll Cry
Happy Tears
See The Nations Turn
Their Swords
Into Plowshares

We Could Really Get There
If You Cared Enough
For The Living
Make A Little Space
To Make A Better Place…

Heal The World
Make It A Better Place
For You And For Me
And The Entire Human Race
There Are People Dying
If You Care Enough
For The Living
Make A Better Place
For You And For Me

I don’t think ‘eternity’ was ever about time – that’s infinity surely? Eternity as a concept has always been contrasted with time.

When I was about seven, I didn’t want to learn to tell the time because I wanted to live ‘beyond time’.

Eternity is something we can experience now.

oh yeah – when i was little i used to be really scared of eternity too. The idea kind of made my brain try and fold in on itself… a bit like getting vertigo from a concept.

It helped a lot to understand that God is not tied to time like we are. I started thinking of heaven more as an “in the moment” experience than something scarily vast and unending and relentless.
