A strong sense of the goodness and grace of God over the opening songs. 'Crowns' went well in its second play.

I slightly overstretched thematically in the response. I wanted to lead from the goodness of God in Christ to a seasonal expectancy of Christ's coming, but the final verse of 'Bless the Lord' hadn't really sufficiently sounded eschatological notes for the link to make sense.

I'm not sure whether anyone else consciously notices when I make stronger or weaker links, but I do think that strong links greatly enrich the coherence of worship, which in turn makes a significant difference to the understanding of our shared hope over time. But no disaster to miss every now and then.

I think people were quite up for a nod towards Advent anyway.
