For The City

In our church homegroup we've recently been learning about how cities were intended to be places of refuge, cultural diversity and of prosperity. Tim Keller has written a very good book/DVD called Gospel In Life on it, and it got me thinking, how much does the city really means to us all in our daily lives? Should we go to the city for our career or to take from it, or should we be giving to it?

So this mix came about, a soundtrack for the city in the summer. Rare northern soul, funk and party to travel the trams to.

Abraham & The Metronomes- Party

The Harvey Averne Dozen- Think It Over

    We should take from the city. Pilfer and plunder it for all its got. Then move cities and repeat until we die

    That's really the opposite of what I think a City is for :). Thanks for the comment though, it's good to spark a debate
