Name: Amy Lyn Lanham
Area of serving: I am part of the Leadership Team at Church180 heading up New Christians. I am the youngest member on the team as I only get to celebrate my birthday every four years since I am born on February 29.
What is the best thing about Church180? I've got three faves: Jesus; the people; and the incredible water views at the Lakeside campus!
Where is your Dream Holiday? Trekking in Tibet as I am told that the views are spectacular!
Which three people would you invite to dinner and why? C.S. Lewis, Aung San suu kyi, and Paul Simon ... just to mix it up. My reason for choosing them as dinner guests ...
C.S. Lewis: A writer of great depth, candour and imagination. I think I have a crush on him.
Aung San Suu Kyi: A political prisoner in Burma and gutsy advocate for fair and democratic leadership. I want to be like her when I grow up!
Paul Simon: His music and lyrics effortlessly reached from the 60s to the 90s thus helping shape my adolescence with his poetic genius.
What music is getting the most airplay on your iPod at the moment? Birds of Tokyo, Muse, Oren Lavie, Sia, and Temper Trap.
What book are you reading? Urban Halo by Craig Greenfield is a story of hope for orphans of the poor. You can read this book quickly, but the lessons and insights will stick with you for a long time.
A recommended movie you have seen recently? Prince of Persia - A young fugitive prince and princess must stop a villain who unknowingly threatens to destroy the world with a special dagger that enables the magic sand inside to reverse time.
What do you enjoying doing in your spare time? ... love hanging out in Newcastle at the local cafes, the gym (so I can continue my enjoyment of Newcastle cafes), and live music!
