People always ask us if faith “is dead” in the UK. But it’s weeks like the first week of this tour that always make us laugh a little at that question. It’s when we can’t hear our own voices above the sound of the praise, when sweat is dripping off the ceiling and the presence of the Holy Spirit is almost touchable that this question seems comical. Not sure why, but it’s always when we’re playing in the UK that the voices are the loudest and we find we can barely sing over them. Maybe it’s because we have so much practice chanting at football matches, or centuries of hymn singing in our church tradition. Gets me thinking though, that sometimes I think we should be more expectant. When two or three are gathered, Jesus will always be in their midst, and this tour is no different.
