For the first time in some time, the church in Prague decided to hold a public lecture. It is an ongoing series of experiments to choose an appealing topic advertised optimally in the best venue on a good date. They were bold in selecting both the place and advertising. They were optimistic about the topic based in its success in Brno, but concerned about a date this near the holidays. The area they selected is very much a working class area with a huge concentration of people living in the old style blocks of flats. The commercial area reminded me of something you would have seen 20 years ago. Attendance was good overall, but the number of visitors was small. It was a good evening, but they will continue tweaking the process. I admire their determination to use this means of taking the gospel to their city.
