Kids in the Way Neh 8 + Ps 19
January 20, 2025
This is one of the (few) times when I’m grateful for the weirdnesses of the lectionary. Did you notice the missing verses from today’s reading in Nehemiah? For once, it’s sensible. Verses 4 and 7 are the Hebrew equivalent of ‘red lolly, yellow lorry’, or ‘unique New York’. Can you say them five times fast? … More Kids in the Way Neh 8 + Ps 19
Peace in the Frazzle
December 9, 2024
My darlings, by the time you read this, there will be but two weeks left of the school term. You are probably up to your eyeballs in carol services, Nativity plays, Christingles and enough wrapping paper to cover Buckingham Palace. I expect you already have all your church Christmas sorted, and if you haven’t, just … More Peace in the Frazzle

Bring it on! – Look, See, Pray
November 14, 2024
Sometimes I have wished for a “safe and soft” life. You know, being trouble-free, healthy, wealthy, and loved by everyone. If that were Christianity, faith would be popular. … More Bring it on! – Look, See, Pray
A Goodly Inheritance
November 11, 2024
There’s a line in Psalm 16 that I underlined in the very first Bible I ever had, when I was a new baby Christian way back in the 1980s. It still strikes a chord today: The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely, I have a goodly inheritance. (Ps 16:6) It’s referring … More A Goodly Inheritance
Splintered Light- Look, See, Pray
October 31, 2024
Taking risks and seeking out “learning moments” will shape us into better photographers. Capturing light and interpreting it is the very heart of photography. Funnily enough, the principle is very similar to good theology! … More Splintered Light- Look, See, Pray
