About Me
- Glen O'Brien
- Melbourne, Victoria, Australia
- I'm married to Lynda and we have four children and two grandchildren. I live in Mernda just beyond Melbourne's northern limit. I serve as Associate Professor of Church History and Theology at Booth College, a Member Institute of the Sydney College of Divinity (I commute). I'm a Minister of the Word in the Uniting Church. I watch too many movies, especially classic Hollywood, and need to start thinking about alternative storage solutions for my DVDs. As for music, I like it all. iPod therefore I am. I am a book enthusiast with a growing collection of classic theology texts, paperbacks from the classic era of crime fiction and Silver and Bronze Age (1960s and 70s) comics.

Wow, who's that studly Australian drinking a can of American soda?
"Studly"? Now come on Charles is that a word or did you just make it up? Hey I just discovered your blog and it looks great. I look forward to having a good read of it. (Thanks for the link too by the way). Hearty congratulations on your wedding. I'll keep an eye on your blog for further upates on your progress to the land of Oz.
What's with the lack of blogging Glen? I miss your musings.
I have been Lazy with a capital L of late (four weeks holiday break. most of which I'll be spending around the house. I've spent a lot of time cataloging my DVD collection (I have a lot of 'em) using really great free software called DVD Profiler. This has kept my fingers busy and my brain on autopilot which I think is what I've needed after another busy year at KC. We're off to Bright for a few days tomorrow so there won't be any more blogging in the next little while either. Blessings.
If you're going to plug your blog to the class you'll have to update it! :)
You blog Nazi you!
Oh yeah! I'll create my own blog regime that you won't be a part of!

Hey Glen! Saw the kingsley promo dvd today. Tell Jesse I think it's awesome! He did such a great job!
Great to hear from you Frank. Thanks for your kind words. It's a joy to read them.
Hi Glenn. Just dropping by after visiting your church this morning.
Have peace.
Thanks Christop. It was great to have you and Naomi with us. Grace and Peace to you also.
