Fancy an insight into what books Bono reads? Including which Bible he reads, heres a little thing called “Open Book”.
Be warned, it gets a little cute at the end.

Could the next Evangelical Alliance Chief Executive be an Avenger?
Have you heard of the Evangelical Alliance? They are a… alliance of evangelical type people… (Read their about us page if you’re really interested) Basically, the UK branch are looking for a new Chief Executive.
Which brings me nicely onto this tweet…
I cant talk Game of Thrones, but Avengers I can…
So which member of The Avengers, would make a good Evangelical Alliance Chief Executive ? I couldn’t resist giving it a think…
(Yes there are spoilers for Avengers Endgame coming up – I’m NOT messing with you!) Please scroll down past Spoiler Darth to read more…
So we’re looking for an Avenger that can…
(Provide) inspirational leadership and helping developing our vision, mission, purpose and strategy, this person will lead the UK’s oldest and largest evangelical unity movement forward.

Which Avenger could be the next EA Chief Executive?
Ronin / Clint / Hawkeye
Here me out here! The guy is a passionate family man, with a do what needs to be done attitude to protect his friends. True, people may have problems with some of his measures, but he will ensure churches / various EA people don’t stray to far away from the EA party line.
Black Widow
There could be a gentle issue with her being dead though.
Vision
This guy is Vision.
But also dead. (At least for now)
Iron Man
Wanda Maximoff
Would you want to mess with her?
She’s still alive.
She flipping kicks ass.
There is a risk that her Superhero name of Scarlet Witch may prove problematic.
Thor
People may get a little upset about the whole “god” thing though.
The Hulk
The dudes clever, good with kids, and while he hasn’t shown massive leader experience, he’s big and green. I’d listen to him.
Who would you choose?

The Sofa’s weekly round up of stuff and – sometimes nonsense found online this week…
Stop Trying to Heal Me.
The BBC have had a look at what its like when people try and pray for you… no actually its a lot more complicated and serious then that…
From time to time, without warning or encouragement, I get approached in the street by Christians who tell me they want to pray for me to get my sight back. Since I became blind as a teenager this has been a regular yet annoying by-product of being an independent disabled person who can walk about on the street.
The last time this happened was on the London underground. The train was packed full of people all studiously ignoring each other when a man put his hand on my shoulder and asked if he could pray for my sight to be restored. But more about that later.
BBC
Written by a Non-Christian, but still a very sympathetic message. Read the BBC website for more.
A Hero to Christian Misfits
There have been many words written about Rachel Held Evans, The Atlantic have taken a great look at why she was a hero to Christian Misfits around the world.
What I’ve been watching this week
I could watch this again and again…
What I’ve been listening to…
The Mid-Faith Crisis guys talk about work, “…and its importance in our lives. How can we be a blessing in the workplace? What can it show us about our own stories? What’s the problem with the phrase ‘work-life balance’? And why does Nick think that it’s OK to record a podcast while eating a fish finger sandwich?“
Check out The Mid Faith Crisis to give it a listen.
Please chuck the links of anything you feel should be shared below! In the mean time, I’m going back to watching that goal…
