  • On Further Reflection-Celebrating A Community and Church Without Walls

    Welcome to another of our sporadic and intermittent “On Further Reflections with Norm Allen.” I’m Norm Allen and with me is ErInn Oxford, the executive director of The Dale Ministries. I’m excited to have Erinn with us today, because we’ve been friends for 12 years or something like that, and I have been friends with her husband Dion for longer - but we share ministry in the city, and ministry to people who have needs – I’m on one side of the street - and Erinn is working a different side of the street, with a different kind of person in her enclave in Parkdale.

    20/10/2021 Duração: 53min

    I’ve been thinking about the context in which we’re living at the moment, and the fear, anxiety and anger that seems to be part of our whole cultural experience. This is a conversation I shared with two people who are very close to me. Dr. Ken Derksen who is close to me - maybe because he’s my neighbour and my doctor. We share our journey in Christ together. He’s also a board member on one of the larger churches in our area. Heidi Allen is - has the misfortune for several decades to be my daughter. She’s a graduate of Western University in Music, a graduate of Regent College in Theological Studies, and has a degree now in Psychotherapy, so she has her own psychotherapy practice.
