The John Stott Breakfast was mildly disappointing. I have to admit I didn't really know what to expect, but I was aware that some people class him as a hero, having been inspired by his books. John spoke on "The importance of the Christian Mind," and he gave what really amounted to a brief overview of the importance of thinking and understanding.

He balanced it well with a great illustration, "I'm not interested in producing tadpoles - with a big head and little body." This meant that we mustn't just know, we need to be followers of Jesus.

Simple, but true. The air of 'hero worship' scared me though.
