    Nyheter Frodig og begeistret kirkeleder (03.01.2012) Alle det er naturlig å sammenlikne ham med, har rundet denne bøyen for lengst. Når det gjelder alder, holder Andersen seg beskjedent i bakgrunnen. I de fleste andre seilaser kommer Kirkerådets tidligere leder friskt og frimodig ut i høy hastighet, og dermed også i front. Kirkemøtet valgte Nils-Tore Andersen til leder av Kirkerådet i 2006. I fire år var han Den norske kirkes fremste valgte leder, et verv han skjøttet med brennende engasjement og menneskelig klokskap. De som hevder at Den norske kirke dekker over uenigheter, har ikke vært til stede på møter i Kirkerådet eller på Kirkemøtet. Andersen er en dyktig strateg og en tillitvekkende brobygger som har bidratt til et forbedret klima av gjensidig respekt for ulikhet i kirken. Nils-Tore er glad i folk, og folk som blir kjent med ham, blir glade i ham. Han hviler i nåden og kan selv be om tilgivelse i full offentlighet. Nils-Tore Andersen er en svært kunnskapsrik lekmann, som har en velsignet evne til å snakke så folk forstår. Han uttrykker ofte at han er glad i kirken. Så enkelt og så godt kan det sies. Han sprer optimisme og glede - ofte iblandet stor grad av selvironi. Han ser de positive utviklingstrekkene mer enn de negative, og han er flink til å gi medarbeidere tilbakemeldinger. Det gir trygghet og frimodighet i arbeidet. Som kirkerådsleder investerte Nils-Tore Andersen svært mye tid, engasjement og innsats. Han var svært tilgjengelig, både for kirkens folk og for pressen. Vi mistenker at overgangen ble en smule brå da han ikke lenger var rådsleder.

So far, recovery has been uneven across regions as some countries were forced to reintroduce lockdowns, while others gradually eased strict measures. However, in many countries Monetary and Fiscal authorities have maintained a supportive posture, keeping policy parameters accommodative till “skies are clear”. Going forward, we still expect speedy vaccination to spur growth although the emergence of a Delta variant poses downside risk to our outlook Domestic Economy……………….………………………………………………………….19 Slow but Steady Economic Growth As witnessed in Q4:2020, the pace of economic growth in the first quarter of the year remained sluggish due mainly to low oil output. While the steady recovery points to the impacts of fiscal and monetary stimulation, key macro indicators like exchange rate, inflation and capital flows highlighted lingering domestic weaknesses. In the second half of the year, a key tailwind to growth would be the possible OPEC quota relaxation amid supportive oil prices.

(Foto: Birkeland I nominasjonsprosessen før høstens avstemningsrunder, spurte Stavanger menighet / Morten Wanvik) bispedømmeråd kandidatene om deres motivasjon for å bli biskop i Stavanger. Braut svarte slik: - Det motiverer å leve midt i et bispedømme preget av engasjement og nytenkning. Jeg har et ønske om å være med på å prege dette aktive livet med kirkens evangelisk-lutherske forkynnelse og kristendomsforståelse. For meg er det motiverende å være biskop i en folkekirke der ennå så mye trosbekjennelse og tjeneste kan vokse fram. Jeg kjenner gleden over å oppleve livet i menighetene og samtidig forhåpningen om å kunne oppmuntre menigheter og medarbeidere, også når det går i motbakke. Ivar Braut vokste opp i Sandnes og var aktiv i Høyland menighet, og siden i Gand.
