The List
As I think about the future Mrs S, the list becomes more and more condensed, shrinking to what I think are the 4+1 non-negotiables. This time I thought I’d give some thought to articulating a little bit more just what each of those non-negotiables translates to in plain English.. So here goes… A passion for God, children and a balanced Judeo-Christian worldview Christian, serve in church in some capacity whilst not actively looking to go the whole hog of becoming a missionary to Nepal (trust me I’ve met someone who wanted to do just that). :) Willing to explore the more liberal expressions of Christian theology (à la Hillsong/ other interdenominational churches rather than a typically Nigerian one). The same sense of long term direction Has a defined life plan with targets over the next 5+ years that I can contribute to; Considers the UK, US or Canada as home in the near to medium term at least; Wants to have or adopt children (2 max) Great conversation Someone interested enough in me to want to stay in touch; Is able to converse on a range of issues and topics including football, faith/ worldview etc An appreciation of the arts Reads and appreciates reading Gets CCM and can relate to quite few of the usual suspects (Hillsong, Delirious, Switchfoot, Audio Adrenaline, Third Day, Tenth Avenue North :) ) Not opposed to catching a play at the opera or a movie from time to time.
