You can't preach about money or politics in our village

Just to mention the talk about justice and riots etc at the Women's World Day of Prayer didn't go down all that well with some people. Too political. And what did we need all that talk about votes for women and equal pay and justice and all that for? Could it be because for some women in the world their lives aren't exactly ideal and they haven't got a lot of the things we take for granted?

Also sort of think Jesus tended to be a bit concerned about justice.

There are a lot of things I like about our village but the sort of complacent attitude that 'as long as I have my four holidays abroad a year and eat out three times a week and have a nice car and my gym membership and the kids go to a good school everything's right with the world' is not one of them. And really in some cases it is that bad.
