Looking for regional representatives in your country!
The Premium Moscow - St Petersburg tour is the ideal way to see the highlights of Russia's two greatest cities within a 7-day window. With two trips planned in Moscow and a further two in St Petersburg you will see all the main sights and some lesser known gems.
Moscow is a city of contrasts: It has the highest density of billionaires, is the world's most populated inland city and boasts six out of Europe's ten tallest buildings. Every year up to five million foreign tourists travel there to find that it is an enjoyable and friendly place and melting pot where culture, history and the future mix with the present day. From Red Square and the Kremlin to the Cold War Bunker, there is much to excite and enjoy in Moscow.
St. Petersburg is often considered to be the most culturally Western city in Russia. However, it would be wrong to assume that this denies travellers an authentic Russian experience. On the contrary, St. Petersburg is the epicentre of the nation's art and culture and is the place that gave birth to some of those who made the country into what it is today, from Ivan Pavlov and Vladimir Nabokov to Vladimir Putin.
|Day 1 - Arrival in Moscow
St. Basil's Cathedral
Upon arrival in the Russian capital, you will be greeted at your point of arrival by a private transfer and escorted to a 3* hotel in the centre of the lively Moscow. Once you have had a chance to get settled in and store your luggage, you will have the rest of the day to explore some of the sights and sounds of this vibrant city. The city of Moscow is the home to some of Russia's greatest treasures, and some more hidden than others. With that in mind, why not pay a visit to the elaborately decorated Metro stations around the city. Alternatively, if you are interested in Moscow's unique landscape, why not take a cruise along the picturesque Moskva River. Real Russia can supply both excursions, as well as many others.
|Day 2 - A Walking City Tour and the Cosmonautics Museum
Moscow View
Today will be truly exhilarating as you are on your way to discover Moscow's political, historical and cultural heart. After breakfast, you will be met at your hotel by one of our knowledgeable guides, who will first take you on a fascinating walking tour of central Moscow, before taking you by car to see some of the best historical sights spread across the city. The immediate sense of history will be evident as you see the greatest sights that Moscow has to offer. You will begin your tour in the heart of Moscow, beginning at the legendary Red Square where you will uncover some of the greatest treasures of Russia's past. You will then be taken to visit the iconic St Basil's Cathedral, Lenin's Mausoleum and the Kremlin, amongst other remarkable buildings and statues. Please note that fees to St Basil Cathedral, Lenin's Mausoleum and Kremlin are at an additional cost. Following your immersion in central Moscow, and the history that comes along with this, you will have time for lunch before being whisked away to all corners of Moscow by car to see why Moscow isn't just the Kremlin and St Basils. From the incredible Alexander Gardens to the unique VDNKh Soviet Exhibition Centre, your guide will ensure that no stone is left unturned in making sure you see everything great about Moscow.
|Day 3 - A Selection of Excursions in Moscow
Moscow Tretyakov State Gallery
Today you have a bit of flexibility to your itinerary, you can choose one of three fantastic excursions:
Option 1 - The Romanov Royal Family The Romanov Family ruled Russia for over 300 years until the Russian Revolution of 1917. The story of the Romanov Dynasty, today, is still a significant part of Russian History. From start to end, this tour recounts the riveting history of the Romanov family, unfolding as you go, the rise and fall of the once powerful family. The tour begins in the centre of Moscow, the birthplace of the Romanov dynasty, before moving to Kolomensoye, the once beloved residence of the Romanov family. The journey concludes in the convent of SS Martha and Mary where you will learn about the last of the Romanovs.
Option 2 - The Tretyakov State Gallery. The Tretyakov Gallery boasts a collection of more than 170,000 Russian works of art, created over the last 300 – 400 years, with some pieces more than a thousand years old. The gallery has representation from all the periods of Russian and European art, including classicism, romanticism and impressionism. While it will not be possible to view every piece of art in the gallery today, your guide will take you around the highlights, recounting the history surrounding their creation, and Russia, in the process. By the end of the tour you will come away having been thoroughly immersed in Russian art, culture and history.
Option 3 – Luxury cruise on the Moskva River Operated by the Radisson Hotel situation in one of the Seven Sisters, this cruise of central Moscow meets the lofty standards that Radisson hold their hotels to. Starting at the Ukraina Hotel Pier, this incredible cruise will allow you to take in many of Moscow's best riverside sights in comfort while learning all about them with the on-board guide. Without spoiling the entire trip, the boat will take you past more than one of the famous Seven Sisters, famous government buildings such as the Moscow Mayors Office and the Kremlin, and some of Moscow's most important religious buildings, such as St Basil's Cathedral. Why tire yourself out, when you can sit back, relax, and enjoy Moscow from the back of the nicest cruise the Moskva River has to offer!
|Day 4 - Departure for Saint Petersburg
St Isaacs Cathedral
After waking up feeling refreshed, you will have an aching desire to explore more of Moscow. If that is the case, we are confident it will be, the morning will be free for you to explore more of this mind-blowing city before departing to Saint Petersburg. Why not make your day even better by taking a stroll through the Kremlin and Armoury, or head underground to see Moscow's pride and joy, the achievement that is their Metro system. These are just two of the many excursions available from Real Russia. There is a choice of departure times on the Sapsan high-speed train, throughout the afternoon and evening, 1.40pm, 4.30pm and 7.30pm, at which point it will be time to say Do svidaniya' (Goodbye) to Moscow and 'Zdravstvuyte' (Hello) to Saint Petersburg. When you decide to leave this magnificent city is up to you. You can leave early in the afternoon and spend the evening in Saint Petersburg, or extend your afternoon in Moscow and leave either early, or mid, evening. Whatever you choose, your transfer will collect you from your hotel and take you to Leningradsky Station to hop aboard the high-speed Sapsan train for the four-hour journey to Saint Petersburg. If you want to experience the ultimate level of comfort in rail travel, why not travel to Saint Petersburg in style, aboard the Grand Express? When booking, you can upgrade your rail travel to experience the luxury of the overnight train travelling between Moscow and Saint Petersburg. The Grand Express, by any standard, is a lavish hotel on wheels, and you will experience a first class unlike no other. In addition, you will have an extra evening in Moscow to experience its nightlife, as the train will not leave until 11.30pm. You will arrive early in the morning on day four, with enough time for your transfer to take you to your hotel so you can drop off your bags and shower before starting the day.
|Day 5 - City Tour of St Petersburg
St Petersburg River
Another day packed with excitement, as you are about to discover all that's great about Russia's former capital. Your tour guide will greet you at your hotel, then you will be on your way to journey back in time, and learn about the history of Saint Petersburg. The tour will take you past some of the best and most important sites in Saint Petersburg. A highlight among them being the lively Nevsky Prospekt, one of the most famous streets in Russia, it runs from the Admiralty, all the way past the Moskovsky Rail Station and into the Alexandra Nevsky Monastery. Throughout the day you will also visit the Church of the Saviour on the Spilled Blood, Kazansky Cathedral, St Isaacs's Cathedral, The Hermitage and many more sites in a city that is affectionately known as the 'Venice of the North'. Please note that entry fee to The Hermitage is at an additional cost. If that wasn't enough, your guide will finish the tour by taking you to the beautiful Peter and Paul Fortress along with the Field of Mars, while detailing the history for you of both. The evening will be yours to explore, experience and discover all the secrets of this great city.
|Day 6 - Visit to the Peterhof Palace and Free Time in Saint Petersburg
A short journey from Saint Petersburg is the imperial residence of Peter I, the Peterhof Palace. This is in fact a collection of palaces and gardens that have been referred to as the 'Russian Versailles', and along with the centre of Saint Petersburg are a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Not only will you behold the splendour of this royal estate, weather permitting, you will also arrive by boat, giving you the opportunity to take in the gorgeous surroundings. Once you have returned to Saint Petersburg you will have the afternoon and evening to yourself. Why not take this opportunity to visit one of the many restaurants on Nevsky Prospekt to get a taste of the local cuisine? In the winter, if you would prefer, you could visit the town of Pushkin where you can see some of the most beautiful parks and palaces in Saint Petersburg.
|Day 7 - Free Time in, and Departure from, Saint Petersburg
The Hermitage
Saint Petersburg is your oyster on day five, with free time to explore the side streets, canals, palaces and churches of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. You know what they say, all good things must come to end, as it's now time to say 'do svidaniya' to Saint Petersburg and Russia. If leaving is just too difficult for you, which it is for so many of our customers, Real Russia can extend your time and arrange more thrilling excursions for you (at additional costs). At a prearranged time your private transfer will collect you and take you to your point of departure.

Editorial: Logic behind planned introduction of 'exit tax' unconvincing
(Mainichi Japan)
A plan to introduce a new tax to be imposed on anyone leaving Japan is expected to be included in the ruling coalition's outline for tax system revision, which is to be concluded by the end of this week. The government aims to launch the new tax in 2019.
What a quick and easy way to collect taxes. Regardless of nationality, any traveler leaving Japan would be subject to extra fees of up to 1,000 yen, which would likely be added to the price of their plane tickets. Those involved in drawing up the plan might have assumed that if the "exit tax" was collected together with travel fees, it would be discreet, and if it was only about 1,000 yen, travelers wouldn't mind.
However, the key issue here is what the exit tax will be used for.
The introduction of the new tax was proposed following discussions at a Tourism Agency expert panel. According to the agency's apparent logic, to further increase the number of inbound tourists, which keeps hitting record highs, various promotion measures will be necessary, but central and local governments are facing financial difficulties. They thought a new tax could fix this problem.
A calculation of the 1,000 yen exit tax per person based on the number of travelers last year gives roughly 40 billion yen in revenue -- double the initial budget for the Tourism Agency.
The argument that the exit tax revenue will be "used for tourism promotion" is way too vague.
The report concluded by the expert panel says that it is inappropriate to limit the use of revenue from the new tax and that a system should be developed in such a way that it could be used somewhat extensively. In other words, the introduction of the exit tax did not come about based on the logic that a new tax is the only way because some specific measures cost this much.
The revenue from the new tax will likely increase with the growing number of travelers, but it also raises concerns that the income could be used for unnecessary spending as government bodies try to use up their budgets.
The report also touches on "revitalization of local economies" as possible contributions that could be made by the introduction of the new tax. Many municipalities in Japan fighting declining populations have high hopes for tourism as a trump card to stimulate their economies. There is concern, however, that the new financial resources could be used for pork-barrel projects under the name of "local tourism promotion."
The tourism industry is of course important for a country. There are similar taxes and fees to the exit tax in other countries. Even so, the creation of new financial resources with no firm amount or usage plan is hardly acceptable.
Japan's finances face extreme difficulties. And if the government argues that spending on tourism promotion is a must under such circumstances, it should include the revenue from the new tax in the general account budget, which does not specify the use of tax revenue, and then make a separate demand for related allowances in a budget request.
Amid the steady increase in the number of inbound tourists to Japan, tourism has grown to become one of the country's main industries on par with financial businesses. According to the World Economic Forum's Travel and Tourism Competitiveness Report 2017, Japan ranks fourth among 136 nations. It might be wiser for the government to leave tourism promotion measures to the private sector, as well as their funding.

At Cannes: VW and PepsiCo on succeeding in China, Contagious on the world in five years
How will brands reach China?
ŌĆ£Is it really true to say that China is a rising empire?ŌĆØ asked Alexei Orlov, chief marketing officer for Volkswagen Group China, during the session ŌĆ£How to Reach a Billion EyeballsŌĆØ at the Cannes Lions International Festival of Creativity today. ŌĆ£I would say theyŌĆÖre a returning empire,ŌĆØ he said, reminding the audience that China is responsible for inventions like paper and gunpowder, even toilet paper, and home to some of the largest global brands, including Lenovo and Huawei. China now contributes more than a third of VWŌĆÖs worldwide sales, Orlov said: The automaker sold 2.1 million cars in China in 2012, 37 percent of global sales.
Despite the vigorous marketplace, VW ranked an abysmal 126th in terms of desirability in China three years ago. ŌĆ£ThereŌĆÖs a big difference between need and desire,ŌĆØ Orlov said. To amp up its desirability, VW launched ŌĆ£The PeopleŌĆÖs Car Project,ŌĆØ which allowed consumers to suggest designs for carsŌĆömore than 260,000 were submittedŌĆöone of which the company produced. Orlov said it was the biggest crowdsourced product to date. In 2012, VW moved up to 76th most desired brand.
Orlov followed a presentation by PepsiCo China CEO Richard Lee, who pointed out that ChinaŌĆÖs rapid development has come at a cost: the loss of family values. For instance, while Chinese New Year is the most important season in the countryŌĆöwith some 700 million Chinese traveling to celebrate with their family each yearŌĆö70 percent of youth question the tradition of going home for the holiday. Last year PepsiCo sought to remind youth of the importance of family and culture with a campaign focused on rebuilding family bonds. Spreading the message that family is the root to happiness, ŌĆ£Bring Happiness HomeŌĆØ included a 22-minute film, music videos, outdoor ads, bus wraps, social media, QR codes on packaging, content marketing and more.
Transmedia campaigns such as this are imperative in China, as media is extremely fragmented and cluttered, and the online world is even more diverse. Mobile penetration is at 80 percent, with more people accessing the Internet via the mobile than the PC. Awareness of PepsiŌĆÖs campaign, which was endorsed by the government, reached 86 percent. And Pepsi successfully reunited 1,000 people with loved ones who wouldnŌĆÖt have been able to make the Chinese New Year trip. ŌĆ£PepsiCo believes in performance with purpose,ŌĆØ Lee said. ŌĆ£DonŌĆÖt underestimate the importance of purpose in the equation. Every business objective should come with a purpose.ŌĆØ
The day of sessions at Cannes ended with a seminar hosted by Contagious that imagined what the world will look like 60 months from now. Contagious co-founder and editorial director Paul Kemp-Robertson envisions a little less marketing and a little more service design, IP creation and empathetic ecosystems. He and fellow presenter James Kirkham, managing director of Holler, talked about the projected rise in affective interfaces, cognitive computing, epidermal electronics, haptic (or sensory) experiences and advanced motion tracking.
Kemp-Robertson emphasized that ŌĆ£the future is about being intuitive, not intrusive,ŌĆØ meaning that ŌĆ£brands shouldnŌĆÖt add technology in our lives unless it truly enhances the experience.ŌĆØ One of the duoŌĆÖs parting thoughts: ŌĆ£Good technology is no excuse for a bad idea.ŌĆØ Amen to that!

Sidelines: Bama's tough, being an NFL coach is rough and lots of other stuff
By Mike Ashley
KIRBY SMART? SURE IS: Second year at Georgia and the Bulldogs are in the championship. He has the top recruiting class in the country coming next year, and no matter what happens Monday, Georgia looks like they'll be a fixture in the championship mix, Nick Saban permitting. He is 11-0 against his former assistants and they're usually not close games.
WHEN YOU WISH UPON A STAR: No surprise Central Florida claimed a national championship. They're in Orlando. Heck, they have a parade there every day.
DIDN'T DODGE DRAFT: UCLA QB Josh Rosen was talking about staying in school to avoid the draft. He's in now, but still a conscientious objector to being sent to Cleveland.
NFL INVESTIGATING USE OF GREEN EGGS: I thought Dr. Seuss was reporting when I heard the Bears fired Fox. (They want to be future playoff locks, but they probably need more guys to make tackles and blocks.)
YOU'RE FIRED: Waiting for a Tweet about how the NFL coaching carousel is hurting national employment figures. Speaking of which, Johnny Manziel is going to Canada to find work. It's tough up there – metric system messes up the whole 4-3 scheme and makes it more confusing.
TIMEOUT FOR TRIVIA: Who were the first two Wild Card teams in the NFL?
ICING ON MY TAKE: The NHL's Winter Classic looks like a lot of fun. If only it weren't on opposite football.
SPARTY PARTY: Michigan State plays six of its nine games in January at home, so look for the Spartans – already No. 1 in the nation – to really get rolling.
BAND AID: I really enjoyed seeing some of the marching bands at halftime of the big bowl games – I'm a sucker for color and pageantry – and if for no other reason than it meant less from the talking heads at halftime.
BILLS ARE PAID UP: Contributions to Bengals QB Andy Dalton's children's charity have jumped exponentially, many in $17 increments from the Buffalo area, corresponding to the number of years since the Bills made the playoffs.
RAIDERS OF THE LOST (2017) SEASON: Can believe Raiders hiredJon Gruden. He hasn't lost a game in 10 years. Can't believe they will give him coaching job and ownership stake. That sets up an uncomfortable press conference when he has to fire himself.
THIRD TIME NOT REALLY THE CHARM: NFL teams that went 2-0 versus opponents and met a third time in the playoffs are 13-7. For informational purposes only, no wagering please.
TRIVIA ANSWER: Go buy yourself something nice if you knew the Detroit Lions in the NFC and the Miami Dolphins in the AFC were the NFL's first wild card teams. It was 1970, just after the full NFL-AFL merger and realignment. Detroit lost to Dallas 5-0 in what is still the lowest scoring playoff game ever. Miami fell 21-14 at Oakland the next day.

Prog Rock Showcase at the Fiddler's Elbow
Hats Off Gentlemen It's Adequate, Birdeatsbaby and Spiral Key present an evening of prog rock at the Fiddler's Elbow.
Three of Britain's leading emerging progressive rock bands join forces to co-headline an evening of outstanding progressive rock at the legendary Fiddler's Elbow.
Hats Off Gentlemen It's Adequate -
"Original songs, well delivered, style, stage charm, a great voice and great bass playing. Bloody marvellous. The highlight of the weekend". e-festivals review of HRH Prog.
"Hats Off Gentlemen It's Adequate is an ideal example of what prog is; music that does not follow a traditional pattern or path but rather evolves. Hats Off Gentlemen manages to evolve both with every new album and every time you listen to the same album...there is so much there you can't take it all in on the first go-round." The Closet Concert Arena
Hats Off Gentlemen It's Adequate are recommended by Steve Hackett (Genesis) and were joint winners (along with Roger Waters and Alice Cooper) of the Beastie's Rock Show Album Of The Year Award 2017.
Dark progressive rock band from Brighton, UK. Birdeatsbaby blend elements of rock, punk and metal music to create a sound that's striking and unique. Their live shows are spectacle not to be missed.
"A touch of class, hints of everyone from ELO to Marilyn Manson" - Q Magazine
"Splendid cabaret style art-rock" - BBC 6 Music (Chris Hawkins)
"Tori Amos and Muse bewildering a church coffee morning" - Prog Magazine
Spiral Key
Spiral Key is a UK-based symphonic progressive metal band formed in 2012, specializing in thoughtful and heavy music, diverse themes and a subtly dark sense of humour. They signed to Pride & Joy Music in 2017. Released in January 19th 2018, Spiral Key's second album 'An Error of Judgement' saw the light.

How it Happened
Rhode Island (0-1-0) dropped its season opener in a heartbreaking, 4-3 overtime loss to New Hampshire, Thursday night at the URI Soccer Complex.
The Wildcats (1-0-0) opened the scoring in the 35th minute when Sofia Borea knocked in a goal off a corner kick by Casey Peterson. The Wildcats added to their lead in the 40th minute when Megan Kikosicki scored off of a cross from Belle Pesante. New Hampshire took their 2-0 lead into halftime after outshooting Rhode Island, 9-4.
The Rams made it a game in the second half as Kelly Mayo knocked in two goals within a minute of each other. Both goals were scored off of right-side crosses from Rebecca D'Anna, who recorded the first assists of her career on the tallies by Mayo.
Rhode Island took its first lead of the game in the 78th minute when Tory Bike dished a ball in to Brooke Osmanski, who fired in a close, high shot into the top right corner of the net to give Rhode Island a 3-2 edge.
The Wildcats responded to Rhode Island's rally with a goal by Megan Kikosicki in the 84th minute off of a pass from Casey Peterson, tying up the score 3-3. Regulation ended with the Rams and the Wildcats locked in at 3-3.
A cornerkick dropped in by Megan Rumbold in the 93rd minute threatened to end the game, but Haley Brennan made the save off of a high header by Kaylan Williams.
Ally Reynolds later sealed Rhode Island's fate when she knocked in a high shot from the top of the box, ending the game with the Wildcats up 4-3.
Inside the Box Score
- Freshmen Grace Haggerty, Tory Bike and Amanda Schafer all earned the start in their respective collegiate debuts.
- Freshman Rebecca D'Anna also made her first career appearance in the season opener. She came on as a reserve in the first half before starting the second half, where she collected her first two assists.
- Sophomore Kaitlyn Sengphilom recorded all but one of Rhode Island's four shots in the first half of the game.
- Sophomore Haley Pignatelli made her first career appearance as a Ram. She recorded one shot on goal in the first half.
- Junior Kelly Mayo turned in the first multi-goal game of her career after finding the back of the net just once last season.
- Senior goalkeeper Haley Brennan matched her career-high with eight saves, three in the first half, three in the second half and two in overtime.

Norwegian Dawn
Year Built: 2002
Speed: 25 kn
Passengers: 2,244
Crew: 1,126
92 tons
The Norwegian Dawn sails to Bermuda from Boston in the summer, to Canada and New England in the fall from New Orleans, and to the Caribbean from New Orleans in the winter.
On April 16, 2005, after sailing into rough weather off the coast of Georgia, Norwegian Dawn encountered a series of three 70-foot (21 m) waves. The third wave damaged several windows on the 9th and 10th decks and several decks were flooded. Damage, however, was not extensive and the ship was quickly repaired. Four passengers were slightly injured in this incident.
On November 27, 2009, Norwegian Dawn lost all power while returning to Miami. United States Coast Guard ships and helicopters were dispatched to the scene to assist. During the power outage, the more than 2,000 passengers on the ship had no access to running water, electricity, air conditioning or toilet services in the hot Caribbean environment. The temperatures in the area at the time were around 85 °F (29 °C) with 67% relative humidity. At least some power was restored and the ship was able to make port in San Juan, PR, not Miami as the itinerary dictated, to allow repairs to be made.
On August 27, 2010, Norwegian Dawn experienced engine problems. The ship had to leave Bermuda early to return to New York at a slower speed.
On August 24, 2013, Norwegian Dawn lost power in the evening due to an engine failure. Lighting was restored almost immediately, but the Dawn floated for nearly two hours in the Atlantic. After fixing the issue, evening events went on as planned and the Dawn reached Bermuda the next morning at her scheduled time.
On May 19, 2015, Norwegian Dawn ran aground in Bermuda shortly after leaving port. The incident was attributed to a minor malfunction in the ship's steering, sending her off course to hit a reef.The ship was floated off the reef six hours later with the high tide, and allowed to continue to Boston after underwater surveys showed no damage.

The evergreen plants that you have will help to keep a bit of colour and variety in your garden but remember to keep some of these plants protected if they need it. Evergreen plants can be more susceptible, for example Laurus Nobilis/Bay and Pittosporum are examples of plants that can be damaged if it is too cold and wet or in an exposed area.
There are a variety of different ways to protect your plants, using gardening fleece round your plant or straw packed through it are probably most common.
Keeping hedges trimmed with a tapering shape at the top will help to prevent the weight of the snow causing any damage. If there has been lots of snow it is a good idea to try and shake it from branches of shrubs and trees to save them from becoming broken or damaged with the weight.
In the garden continue to look after your bird feeders and bird baths. Remembering to break or clear any ice on their water.
Any climbers that you have should be checked over that they are tied in and supported properly. Tree stakes should be checked to make sure they fit properly. We will no doubt have windy conditions over the winter and it is best to support your plants as best possible.
Enjoy the colourful display from any berries on your holly bushes before the birds start helping themselves. If you wish you could always cover the branches with netting to try and protect them but you have to be careful that the birds don't get caught up in the net.
If it has not been done already then cover outside taps with insulation to protect them from freezing. Remember to switch off the water supply and drain the pipes!

NAIROBI, Kenya (CNS) — Ethiopia's Catholic Cardinal Berhaneyesus Souraphiel commended the Ethiopian and Eritrean governments for signing a peace accord.
Ethiopian Prime Minister Abiy Ahmed and Eritrean President Isaias Afwerki signed the peace pact in the Eritrean capital, Asmara, July 9.
Cardinal Souraphiel told Catholic News Service July 10: "This is a historic step taken by the prime minister of Ethiopia within the first 100 days since he took office. The joyous reception of Eritreans to the Ethiopian prime minister and his delegation shows that this has been the prayers of the people. It is very pleasing to the Catholic Church that the prayers of the people of both countries have been answered."
For decades, the two countries have been at loggerheads on issues that include the border. An estimated 80,000 people are believed to have been killed between 1998-2000 over a fierce border conflict. However, after the two countries signed a U.N.-brokered border agreement in 2000, they failed to implement it.
Cardinal Souraphiel said the "steps taken so far by both governments prove that Africans have the wisdom to solve their problems themselves. The Catholic Church will continue to pray both for Ethiopia and Eritrea."
On June 26, speaking in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, as Eritrean government officials arrived in the country, Cardinal Souraphiel noted that Catholics had been praying for peace since the conflict started.
"Even though it was not easy, the Assembly of Catholic Bishops of Ethiopia and Eritrea continued to meet and exchange notes on the pastoral concerns of the two conflicting countries," he said.
U.N. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres also praised the leaders on the signing of the peace pact.
The reconciliation was "illustrative of a new wind of hope blowing across Africa," he told reporters in the African Union headquarters in Addis Ababa, stressing that sanctions imposed on Eritrea might become obsolete after the deal.

Welcome to the Working for the Mandroid stop on the blog tour for Exquisite Corpse, the newly released English translation of Penelope Begieu's French graphic novel. I'm so happy to be working with First Second books to promote Penelope and this quirky little graphic novel. After my review you can enter to win your own copy of Exquisite Corpse. Also check out the other entire schedule for the blog tour over on First Second's website here.
Exquisite Corpse
Penelope Begieu
First Second
I received a finished copy of this book from the publisher in return for being part of the tour.
Released May 5, 2015
124 pages
Graphic Novel / Modern Fiction
Find it on Goodreads (though the blurb gives away things!)
Amazon | Barnes & Noble | Book Depository | Indie Bound
Zoe isn't exactly the intellectual type, which is why she doesn't recognize world famous author Thomas Rocher when she sumbles into his apartment... and into his life.
Zoe doesn't know Balzac from Batman, but she's going to have to wise up fast because Rocher has a terrible secret and now Zoe is sitting on the literary scandal of the century.
So that is the blurb on the inside cover of the book First Second sent over to me, not what is on Goodreads. I felt like the Goodreads blurb gave away the twist that made Exquisite Corpse really interesting, so if you want to know about it, click on the Goodreads link above.
I didn't know much about this book prior to agreeing to review it other than it involved an author and potential had some writerly themes. I just really wanted to work with First Second books, so I was game for anything they needed from me. Between the title and the tagline - "Dying to be an author." - I thought this book involved zombies, which is in my wheelhouse.
This book is not about zombies.
Instead for the first 2/3rds of this very colorful and comically illustrated graphic novel, we're treated to a relationship drama starring Zoe, a discontent 22-year-old who has no direction, no goals, and no drive to create a better life for herself. She's stuck in a deadend job as a booth babe, where she has to be nice to disgusting men that constantly hit on her and are inappropriate at best. She goes home each night to an unemployed slob of a boyfriend, who does little more than watch tv, scratch his junk and fart in bed.
It's a dismal life until fate introduces her Thomas, a hermit writer who happens to be a world-famous author. Suddenly there is light and goodness in her life, even if it does mean moving into Thomas's lavish apartment and never really leaving. It's better that getting grabbed by strangers at conventions and living with a man who doesn't seem to care if you even come home.
Then one day Zoe learns Thomas' secret, and the book changes from relationship drama, kicks into hyper speed and becomes something a little more twisted. The final third speeds by quickly until I was cheering at the ending. Penelope Begieu knows how to take a straight forward story and suddenly make it much more.
This book feels very French to the point I figured it had to be a translation without knowing it for a fact when two characters are casually smoking by page 6. There is also casual female nudity, though never gratuitous, and various sexual relationships are treated as nothing special. Overall it has an atmospheric nature to the storytelling that felt unusual yet incredibly refreshing to read.
The art itself is more towards the Sunday comic strip style of big eyes and generally simple shapes, and most cases colors are used in a muted palate. The occasional splashs of color reflect changes in Zoe's mentality, while her time with Thomas in his hermit lifestyle start to become monotonous. It's a very straight-forward art style that assists the story without taking away from the narrative style.
Without the twist, Exquisite Corpse probably wouldn't have been for me. It was all very simplistic relationship drama until then, but sudden Penelope Begieu twisted the entire story, flipping her characters upside down and creating even more drama that really livened up the entire story. This was a fun, quick read with a quirky personality that I'd recommend, especially for people not into comics but willing to give the non-capes-and-types variety a try.
Enter to Win a Copy of Exquisite Corpse by Penelope Begieu
Thanks to First Second, we have a hard copy of Exquisite Corpse to give away. This contest is open to anyone with a US mailing address and will run until May 15.

Betway Power look to alter course against City Oilers
Wednesday October 10 2018
KAMPALA- City Oilers overturned a 1-0 deficit to hold a 2-1 lead in their best of seven final playoff series against Betway Power.
In doing so, the reigning champions again demonstrated the character that has propelled them to five straight titles.
The onus is consequently now on Power to prove their credentials as the two teams meet again this evening in game four of this Tusker Lite sponsored series.
History also seems to be against Power who have never won more than one game in the five previous playoff meetings between the two sides. The City Oilers also triumphed 3-0 when they met in last season's playoff semifinals to build on the 4-1 and 3-1 victories in 2016 and 2015.
The 2014 playoff final saw Betway Power swept 4-0 while they also lost 3-1 in the 2013 playoff semfinals.
Good opening
They could however look back at the 85-66 opening game victory in which they used a 17-9 fast start in addition to a dominating inside game and Joseph Ikong dropping 24 points.
That has however changed in the past two games with the Oilers front court of Landry Ndikumana and James Okello coming alive in the subsequent games.
Having scored four and seven points respectively in the opening game, the pair responded with 23 and 11 in game two as well as 12 and 15 in game three.
At the other end only Geoffrey Soro has been a consistent offensive threat averaging 12 points for Power in the opening three games.
TODAY - Game four at Lugogo
City Oilers vs. Betway Power
(Oilers lead best of seven series 2-1)

Edman lifts Redbirds in PCL Finals opener
Cards prospect collects four knocks, falls triple shy of cycle
By Rob Terranova / MiLB.com | September 12, 2018 2:25 AM
Look directly at Tommy Edman at your own risk.
The Cardinals prospect continued his torrid postseason by going 4-for-5 -- falling a triple shy of the cycle -- with three RBIs and a pair of runs scored to pace Memphis to a 10-4 victory over Fresno in Game 1 of the best-of-5 PCL Championship Series on Tuesday at Chukchansi Park.
Video: Edman crushes leadoff homer for Memphis
The 23-year-old is 11-for-21 with three extra-base hits, a walk, five RBIs and five runs scored in five playoff games. He's collected at least one knock in each contest with four multi-hit efforts.
"I just happen to get hot at the right time," Edman said. "I'm seeing pitches well and staying balanced through my swing. It's just a matter of making adjustments as you go through the season, and I made a pretty good adjustment recently and it's working out. It's exciting to be playing in the Championship Series again. I came up last year for the playoffs but didn't really play that much. So it's fun to be a starter and one of the main contributors on the team this year."
It only took four pitches on Tuesday for Edman to give the Redbirds the lead. The Stanford product turned around a 2-1 fastball from right-hander Brady Rodgers (0-1) and deposited it over the fence in right field for his first playoff homer. Memphis never looked back.
"That's my first leadoff homer of the year," Edman said. "I never really try to hit home runs -- when it happens, it's just kind of an accident. I'm always just looking for a good pitch to hit that I can square up well. That was an inside fastball he threw me there, and that's a pitch I've been hitting really well recently."
Edman capped a three-run second inning with a two-out single to center that scored Wilfredo Tovar. Cardinals No. 5 prospect Andrew Knizner and sixth-ranked Randy Arozarena crossed the plate earlier in the frame.
In the fifth, Edman laced the first pitch he saw from Rodgers into center for a one-out double. The 2016 sixth-round pick came around to score two batters later on a single by Rangel Ravelo. He then lined a single to left in the sixth against lefty Kent Emanuel that scored Cards No. 8 prospect Justin Williams.

"I knew I was a triple shy of the cycle, but it's hard to try to hit a triple. A lot of the time it's just a matter of luck," Edman said of his at-bat in the sixth. "So I didn't change my approach at all. It's always the same. I did my best not to let the idea of the cycle get into my head too much."
Mejia matched Edman with three RBIs, while Tovar was 3-for-4 and drove in a pair of runs. Redbirds starter Kevin Herget (1-0) and allowed four runs on four hits and three walks while striking out six over 5 2/3 innings for the win.
Astros No. 15 prospect Garrett Stubbs picked up two hits, two RBIs and a run scored for Fresno, which hosts Game 2 on Wednesday. Kyle Tucker, MLB.com's No. 8 overall prospect, singled and walked for the Grizzlies.
"Getting the first game is huge, especially winning it on the road," Edman said. "Now if we can get a win tomorrow and head back home with a 2-0 series lead, and the next three games are [in Memphis], I think it's highly unlikely they beat us three times in a row."

Upload a photo of Lamentations
See her seated by herself, the town which was full of people! She who was great among the nations has become like a widow! She who was a princess among the countries has come under the yoke of forced work!
She is sorrowing bitterly in the night, and her face is wet with weeping; among all her lovers she has no comforter: all her friends have been false to her, they have become her haters.
Judah has been taken away as a prisoner because of trouble and hard work; her living-place is among the nations, there is no rest for her: all her attackers have overtaken her in a narrow place.
The ways of Zion are sad, because no one comes to the holy meeting; all her doorways are made waste, her priests are breathing out sorrow: her virgins are troubled, and it is bitter for her.
Those who are against her have become the head, everything goes well for her haters; for the Lord has sent sorrow on her because of the great number of her sins: her young children have gone away as prisoners before the attacker.

Although I got to Paris with very limited means, and weighed with the responsibility for my wife and my old father who had no one else to depend upon, — I persisted in my original programme and entered the academy of Cormon. I chose the latter because I felt that sculpture alone was not wide enough to express what I intended to do. I was obliged to combine intensive study with working for a living, but things went rather well. I was in good physical shape, my mind saw clearly the road before me, and my heart was at rest. With me my faithful friend, the source of much needed courage and strength.
The necessity of earning a living took me to various places. A good deal of the time I worked for Antokolsky, and did models for the famous ceramic factory of Dreyfus. The latter caused me to become interested and to study decorative art, which I later got to like very much. In the early years of my stay in Paris I sought in my work the solution of purely technical problems, and had not even the desire to reproduce some conception of thought. I lived under the spell of the great French masters, which robbed me of all individual effort, fascinating me by the beauty, the virtuosity, the genius of their creations. The life and people around me remained strange, I had no time for observation. I knew man from paintings, from statues, or else from the living models in our classrooms, where to me he was no less an appearance, and artistic problem. Neither did I see nature, except for the neatly trimmed artificially planted and arranged rows of trees, and the smoothly-mown grass of the public parks. I used to pay less to those than to the statues that were placed nearby. At the academy I succeeded admirably, and was soon singled out as the only student granted a free tuition. At the end of the first year I received a second standing in drawing. And yet I had no luck with my painting. It was colourful enough, but it was characterized by a certain hardness of outline remindful of sculpture, by a dryness of time which Mr. Cormon used to call "sour". He advised me to go south, where colours were bright, airy and tuneful, where an object would call forth not so much the idea of shape as of a symphony of colours, which combine into something like a perfect chord of music... I accordingly left for the Mediterranean coast. There in the little French town of Banules, on the Spanish boundary, I worked for six months. To this trip I owe not alone my understanding of colour but to a great extent my personality as artist and man... If it be true that such of my work as "The Shadchen", "The Rebbe's Blessing", "Havdalah", "Saturday Eve", "A Jewish Mother", "Grannie and Grandson" etc. are characteristic of my childhood reminiscences, and are in the words of Dr. Erenpreiss "The Poetry of Golus" — then it is equally true, that all the works conceived in Banules are no longer the "wistful smiles through tears" but "the mighty song of a brave and liberated Jew, who sings of the glorious past that is gone, and the hopes for the future that is to come" ... I conceived my pictures, or it would be more accurate to say — actually perceived them while roaming in the lonely grandeur of the Pyrenean Mountains. Stopping in the rocky caverns, listening to the murmur of the sea: I perceived a stately old man, with the youthful heroic heart of a Maccabee, sounding the trumpet call to battle, gathering to his side the last surviving handful of liberty-loving Jews, who would rather meet death as freedom than continue their life as slaves .... I saw the martyr prophet Jeremiah, persecuted by his own people who, incapable of understanding his desire to save them, shut him up in prison. The people who were deaf to his voice, are gone to their doom, and he, alone in the desert bemoans the fate of his people, composes "The song of tears", "Megilas Eicho", the saddest song ever written... I saw the greatest genius whose light illuminated mankind in its cradle, and is burning brightly to this very day — our great teacher Moses. So imposing was his personality, so superhuman his deeds that not only they lose nothing (as do so many other legendary figures) when the misty curtain of myth is lifted, but on the contrary, they gain in greatness under the bright searchlight of science. His wonderous life pressed before me the tiny basket afloat on the Nile, to his lonely old age in the desert mountains... I modeled several sketches for five groups with numerous bas-reliefs, which were to comprise a series under the name of "The life of Moses". I have not quite finished it yet, being still engaged in collecting the material and the necessary data. I intend to devote myself to its completion upon my arrival in Palestine. And then if faith finally relents and grants me the possibility of realizing in peace all I have conceived, I shall be able to say before I die: "I know why I have lived and suffered and died".
The peaceful grandeur of the spot brought me close to nature once more, taught me once again to love and understand her. There, for the first time, I beheld myself and others as small and insignificant as grains of sand, in comparison to the greatness and the divinity of Nature. I understood the ecstasy of being close to it, of embracing, of understanding it.

A small army of stickers is worth ten thousand marketing experts. No matter what experts say about marketing and the need to spend huge amounts of money in order to advertise products, custom stickers have jumped far ahead of the competition. With their quirky and flirty designs coupled with amazing tag lines, stickers offer the added advantage of being more cost efficient than traditional marketing gimmicks.
The Best Way: Customer Endorsement
Let me introduce you to one of the well-known secrets across the world. Custom stickers are miraculous items which can raise your enterprise to the next level within a short span of time. Business booms when your customer endorse your establishment and this is exactly what custom-made promotional stickers help you achieve.
Pre-requisite Knowledge On Sticker Advertising?
The first thing to keep in mind while planning to endorse your establishment through stickers is to ensure that the sticker design is eye-catching and coupled with a great punchline. The company doesn't need to hire a professional writer in order to get a great tagline, instead, he can organise contests for the best tagline from his customers.
Another thing to ensure that the quality of stickers is at an ideal level. If you are printing stickers that are going to be used on a long term basis, you must ensure that its quality does not go below a certain standard. People may stick these little angels of marketing on their cars or any other permanent fixture and it is your need that they look great! Hence, making sure that your custom stickers are printed in premium quality is important.
How Can I Use Stickers Effectively?
- Custom stickers can be used to grab the attention of the customer. Stickers screaming offers like 'Buy One Get One Free' and '50% Extra' grab more attention and cause the attention of the common man to drift to your product.
- Custom stickers can also be used to provide extra information about the product like 'Smoother and Thicker hair' for a shampoo. This is another method for attention grabbing.
Custom stickers can be equated to mini bill-boards. They can cause the customer to remember your brand name and take notice of your slogan or tagline.
- Another benefit of using stickers is that they can be used on social media, where they can be 'liked', 'shared', and 'posted'.
- Custom stickers also enhance the outer beauty and appeal of the product to the general public.
- Stickers can also be used to promote charity events and functions.
- Custom stickers also help in identity development and design.
Stickers can also compliment and enhance other marketing efforts put forward by the vendor.
Are Stickers for Real?
If your feeling skeptical about the effect stickers can have on your business, it is worthy to remember that stickers appeal to almost everyone. Custom stickers turn into advertising vehicles for your enterprise once the customer who received one goes about his daily life.
A sticker, whether a custom sticker with a quirky design or a sticker with an unforgettable tagline, can be considered as an engaging gift to the customers. They bring about feelings of happiness for having received a free gift from your establishment. Custom stickers can also be sold as a profitable product if your stickers are becoming popular and gaining fans. In fact, attractive stickers can cause the customers to start collecting them. This enables you to get more profit out of your business.
Custom stickers can obtain impressions for your brand, long after it has been distributed to your customers and it sticks to your enterprise image. Another thing to note is the fact that stickers are capable of promoting marketing by 'Word of Mouth'. It is a well-established fact that 'Word of Mouth' is probably the best form of marketing there is.

Mindfulness and Concentration
Course info
with Lesley Metherell
Bring a friend for free!
Many people are interested in mindfulness and meditation, but what exactly is mindfulness? How do we do it, and how does it help us in our daily life?
Mindfulness in meditation, according to Buddhism, means to not forget the object of meditation. It's our ability both to remember and hold an special feeling or understanding in meditation and bring our mind back to it when it forgets. It is the life force of meditation and induces a deep inner peace that comes from a concentrated mind.
Buddhist meditators have been developing their mindfulness and concentration with simple, powerful meditation techniques for thousands of years – now you can discover these simple techniques and experience the benefits for yourself.
This half day course will be a wonderful preparation for the silent day retreat on March 16 being held at Bodhihsattva Kadampa Meditation Centre in Brighton.
Suitable for both experienced meditators and beginners!
"When the turbulence of distracting thoughts subsides and our mind becomes still, a deep happiness and contentment naturally arises from within."

Jennifer Lopez turns heads with her wardrobe choices, from the green Versace gown she wore to the 2000 Golden Globe Awards to the nude sequined bodysuit she wore to perform at the 2011 American Music Awards.
Lopez pulled from her closet for the new movie The Boy Next Door, in theaters. She was an executive producer of the film, which was made for less than $4 million.
"Wardrobe can get really expensive," she explained in a recent interview with the Associated Press. "With this movie, we didn't have that luxury. It was about, 'Who is Claire? What's the palette? We'll use my jeans, my shoes, my sweaters.' A lot of things were mine."
Lopez plays Claire, a recently separated teacher with a teenage son who shares a steamy night with a 19-year-old neighbor (played by Ryan Guzman), who then turns 50 shades of crazy.
"The artist in me wants more freedom to do more things as far as stories and movies and acting," she said. "It's about finding avenues and ways to do that instead of waiting for people to hire me. [To] know that I can do different kinds of movies. Any kind I want. Put my name on the line, do it for free and say, 'Yeah, I believe in this.' I like the idea. It's very empowering to me that that's a possibility."
Co-star Kristen Chenoweth said recently that she marveled at Lopez's work ethic and feels she's "a kindred spirit."
"I cannot believe the type A, perfectionist, professionalism that that woman carries. It's something that I try to have and it's something I admire in women. She's a strong woman," Chenoweth said.
Lopez made sure to weigh in on the film's big sex scene.
"There's power in preparation and so the more I knew each and every shot that [director Rob Cohen] was doing, I could feel confident in what I was doing," she said. "I was like, 'I don't want to do this, and I don't want to do this. I feel comfortable with this. I don't feel comfortable with that.' "
Speaking up and saying no is something she's learned over time, said Lopez, a mother of 6-year-old twins, Max and Emme, with ex-husband Marc Anthony.
"There were times I hit the wall early on and you go, 'OK I can't do that.' You don't know you have limits when you're young. Then you reach the limit and you go, 'Oh, I can't do that. And next time I won't.' Then when you have kids it's another reality check. I have to be the best for them. You go, 'I can't do this, I can't do that. No. The answer is no. That's too much in one day. Take that out. Move that.' "
She also jokes that "people want you more when you say no, this is in every aspect of your life."

When it comes to maintaining a solid fitness routine, I've heard a lot of different reasons, from a lot of different women, about why they stopped—or never started.
Many of my clients said that it became hard for them to find time in their busy schedule. Other women felt intimidated, too old, or too out of shape. It came down to something simple: Neither group of women knew how or where to begin.
And, that's okay! It's never too late to get fit and happy. Starting or maintaining a fitness routine is like adjusting any other habit—it takes control, choice, and consistency.
Is it difficult? Yes. But the good news is that it's always worth it. The benefits of exercise extend into every aspect of our lives—body, mind, and spirit.
Here are some of my strategies that will help free you from your fitness funk and maintain healthy habits that last:
This is where it starts. Try not to think of exercise as a burden or something you have to do. Instead, look at it as another form of self-care.
Start by concentrating on the benefits and become mindful of the way you feel after the workout, and not before. Soon, you'll start looking forward to that healthy glow and endorphin rush—and your body will thank you.
And never feel guilty about it. There's a misconception in fitness that you need to push yourself to the limit, at all times. That's just not true! In fact, this mindset can lead to burnout or even worse, injury.
I've had clients start their first session by simply jogging on a treadmill—and that's okay. Just take that first step and get moving. Whether it's 20 minutes or up to an hour, you are building a healthy habit through consistency…and that's what counts.
Keep a log of your goals so you can refer back to them daily. Once you hit a milestone, cross it off the list, reward yourself, and move on to the next. The faster you see your progress, the less likely you will taper off and quit your routine entirely.
Sign up for classes online or book a trainer. If it's already on your schedule (and if someone is relying on you), skipping becomes less of an option.
Speaking of accountability, never underestimate the power of the "buddy system." Studies have shown that exercising with a friend can help keep you on-track and motivated to conquer your fitness goals—together. Plus, what's better than breaking a sweat and catching up with a friend? It will easily become something you both look forward to!
Don't let the excuse of your everyday routine get in the way of your workout. Instead, make it become your everyday routine. Just like you did in grade school, lay out your clothes the night before. Not only does it set an intention, but it's a lot easier to stay motivated if you can quickly reach, grab, and go.
I also recommend storing an extra packed bag in your car so you can cash in on any random bursts of motivation, whenever and wherever they may be. Another reason? You no longer have the excuse of "I left my gym bag at home." Problem solved.
Fitness comes full circle. It's important to eat well and hydrate your body—especially when paired with exercise. You can't expect progress and results to come from just one aspect. It all works together to give you the energy and nutrients you need to thrive at your highest potential.
There's absolutely NOTHING wrong with using cute workout gear as a motivation tool; you'll want to break in those new yoga pants or bright sneakers and put that look good, feel good mantra into motion.
Here's a list of some of my favorite fitness brands and products to get you started:
Chill By Will (Clothing)
K-Deer (Leggings)
Bosu (Fitness Equipment)
Spri Bands (Resistance Bands)
TRX Suspension Training System
Swell Water Bottles

[God willing, my Blog and Podcast will be published every morning.]
John 14:23 Jesus replied, 'Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and make our home with them. 24 Anyone who does not love me will not obey my teaching. These words you hear are not my own; they belong to the Father who sent me.'
mikehill4jesus "Seeing their desperate need causes people to love and obey Jesus"
In some people this conviction of their sin is already ripe, and the preacher may at once present Christ, with the hope of their being accepted; but at ordinary times such cases are exceptional. The great mass of sinners are careless, unconvicted, and to assume their conviction and preparedness to receive Christ, and, hence, to urge sinners immediately to accept him, is to begin at the wrong end of our work–to render our teaching unintelligible. And such a course will be found to have been a mistaken one, whatever present appearances and professions may indicate. The sinner may obtain a hope under such teaching; but, unless the Holy Spirit supplies something which the preacher has failed to do, it will be found to be a false one. All the essential links of truth must be supplied.
When the law has done its work, annihilated self-righteousness, and shut the sinner up to the acceptance of mercy, they should be made to understand the delicacy and danger of dispensing with the execution of the penalty when the precept of law has been violated.
Right here the sinner should be made to understand that from the benevolence of God he cannot justly infer that God can consistently forgive him. For unless public justice can be satisfied the law of universal benevolence forbids the forgiveness of sin. If public justice is not regarded in the exercise of mercy, the good of the public is sacrificed to that of the individual. God will never do this.
This teaching will shut the sinner up to look for some offering to public justice.
Now give him the atonement as a revealed fact, and shut him up to Christ as his own sin offering. Press the revealed fact that God has accepted the death of Christ as a substitute for the sinner's death, and that this is to be received upon the testimony of God.
Being already crushed into contrition by the convicting power of the law, the revelation of the love of God manifested in the death of Christ, will naturally beget great self-loathing, and that godly sorrow that needeth not to be repented of. Under this showing the sinner can never forgive himself. God is holy and glorious; and he a sinner, saved by sovereign grace. This teaching may be more or less formal as the souls you address are more or less thoughtful, intelligent, and careful to understand.
It was not by accident that the dispensation of law preceded the dispensation of grace; but it is in the natural order of things, in accordance with established mental laws, and evermore the law must prepare the way for the Gospel. To overlook this in instructing souls is almost certain to result in false hope, the introduction of a false standard of Christian experience, and to fill the church with spurious converts. Time will make this plain.
The truth should be preached to the persons present, and so personally applied as to compel everyone to feel that you mean him or her. As has been often said of a certain preacher: "He does not preach, but explains what other people preach, and seems to be talking directly to me."
This course will rivet attention, and cause your hearers to lose sight of the length of your sermon. They will tire if they feel no personal interest in what you say. To secure their individual interest in what you are saying is an indispensable condition of their being converted. And, while their individual interest is thus awakened, and held fast to your subject, they will seldom complain of the length of your sermon. In nearly all cases, if the people complain of the length of our sermons, it is because we fail to interest them personally in what we say.
If we fail to interest them personally, it is either because we do not address them personally, or because we lack unction and earnestness, or because we lack clearness and force, or certainly because we lack something that we ought to possess. To make them feel that we and that God means them is indispensable.
Only those people described by Jesus in John 14:23 can help those described by him in John 14:24.
The foolishness of Churchianity, Christless Christians, is that Sinners remain as described in John 14:24 until they are either saved through the Gospel of Jesus or they die and enter Hell. But how can they be saved through the Gospel of Jesus if their Teachers are not saved through that same Gospel?
That is where people like myself can help.
