See You Later- Look, See, Pray
April 5, 2024
Today I attended a funeral. Many people came to say their farewells; we shared memories and experiences, and gave thanks for a long life, well lived. It was a story of faith and obedience, from his earliest years until his eventual departure. Was it a whitewash? You know, that temptation to only speak well of … More See You Later- Look, See, Pray
Never Be Afraid- Look, See, Pray

Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid. – John 14 v27 Simply saying “Never be afraid” is ridiculous. Our very own bodies are geared up with physiological reactions to help … More Never Be Afraid- Look, See, Pray
Hares of God + Psalm 66
May 8, 2023
I write this while watching the coronation and scoffing scones and jam. It is a legal requirement on such occasions, so I am led to believe. (You’ll note I have gone all-inclusive on the jam-first-or-cream dilemma.) Below, a reflection on this week’s psalm, your liturgy resources as always, and a slightly mad-cap sketch about our … More Hares of God + Psalm 66

Your liturgy resources are at the bottom and links to other items here. I did have a razzle-dazzle drama script and video to post, but that seemed inappropriate given the tone of this week’s reflection, so I’ll leave those to another time. Peace be with you.

Many Happy Returns, Ma’am.

Grace upon Grace – plus craft and liturgy
May 16, 2022
I just received a brief thank you note for a devotional I wrote for 6th May. I sometimes wonder if the stuff I write makes any difference, so you can imagine how much that note encouraged me. A little sugar goes a long way. The devotion, Grace upon Grace, is reproduced below, and I commend … More Grace upon Grace – plus craft and liturgy
A Different Way of Life- Look, See, Pray
August 26, 2021
Canals run through beautiful English countryside, up Welsh valleys, and link Scottish lochs. Ingenious engineering has survived and still works, carefully maintained, and the whole experience has changed from hard labour to gentle leisure. It’s a grand way to holiday! … More A Different Way of Life- Look, See, Pray
