Peter Delaney replied to Lynda Keen's discussion 'War Horse by Michael Morpurgo' in the group Christ Lit

Lynda Your analysis of Black Beauty and War Horse make intersting reading. The question of whether something is 'religious' is an interesting one; does religious need to be covert or overt? Sometimes the faith element in a piece of writing is to...

War Horse by Michael Morpurgo

Michael Morpurgo's War Horse is a short novel written for children aged 8-13. It is presented as the autobiography of a horse called Joey, very much along the lines of Anna Sewell's ground-breaking Black Beauty, the first novel ever written as an ...

Lynda Keen commented on Lynda Keen's event 'Copy of the first handwritten illustrated Bible'

The St John's Bible is a modern handwritten, illustrated Bible. Amazing that someone had the wit to commission it and awesome to see. The prints in this exhibition are in bright, attractive colours and some of the designs took me back to the hippi...

Exploitation

During a recent visit, Margaret's sister Christine and her husband too us to the fascinating Black Country Living Museum. Buildings from all over the West Midlands have been rebuilt on the site and are operated as working shops, businesses and homes from various periods in history. We went down a mine, sucked humbugs from the old-fashioned sweetshop and ate, from paper cones, chips cooked in real beef dripping
Very nostalgic but in reality the life depicted was very harsh. Chris said that each v… Continue

Wiping the Slate Clean

Recently, at a funeral, I stood looking around whilst waiting for the minister to start the internment service. I was struck by the fact that every gravestone that I could see covered the grave of an apparent paragon of virtue. In serried ranks of black, white and grey, they marched as far as the eye could see, and each stating that the deceased was a greatly-missed saint. Rank after rank of devoted spouses and wonderful parents, grandparents, children and friends. Not a rotter or swine. None un… Continue

Reconciliation

The media constantly remind us why Christ’s message of love and reconciliation is so badly needed. Not just because of the wars and conflicts that plague the world but in disputes much closer to home.
The other day, I watched the television coverage of the anniversary of the miners’ strike. Years have passed and we might have landscaped the slag heaps but the anger and hurt still remain. One elderly ex-miner bitterly stated that several “scabs” still lived in his village but that he would never… Continue

Our Voice in the Community

In the Art Group, I wrote about a picture that we owned. Louisa Oakes and her husband gave it to my in-laws. They were Quakers and she was a well-known governor and Chingford councilor. Margaret has a number of memories of her, mainly as a simple and dedicated Christian. She remembers her coming to school presentation evenings with her pinny tied with string and wearing sandals. She had absolutely no personal vanity. Among other things that she did to serve the people of the area was to bequeath… Continue
