How are you involved at Church180? Board member
What is the best thing about Church180? I love being a part of a church where there are lots of young people, and a significant number of them are prepared to take on leadership roles.
Where is your dream holiday? For me, I love Europe and in particular France and Italy. Ancient villages, the Mediterranean Sea; the food, the people ... I just wish it wasn't a 24 hour journey to get there.
Which three people would you invite to dinner and why?
I'm assuming the question is referring to famous people I would love to have time with: Nelson Mandela, how did he keep such a forgiving heart despite what he has been through; Yonggi Cho, I can't comprehend what he has achieved in God; Richard Branson, an impressive character.
What music is getting the most airplay on your iPod at the moment? Not only do I love France, but also their music. I have a number of French jazz and current singers playing on my iPod.
What book/s are you reading? I'm embarrassing myself as I write this by what a geek I can be, but anyhow I usually have three or four books on the go: poetry, French, and dare I even admit to, reading books about maths.
A movie you have seen recently that you would recommend? I haven't been to the movies in ages; I can't remember the last movie I saw; but I like action movies like the Bourne movies.
What do you enjoy doing in your spare time? I love to go walking with my Lynnie, preferably the harbour or near the beach or reading in a coffee shop.
