A responsive version of Psalm 65 from the 4CornersBelfast Radio Ulster Morning Service, which seems quite appropriate as a storm blows itself out on the south east coast of County Down where we are staying for a few days... virtualmethodist.blogspot.com/2025/02/4-corn…

As I continue to reflect on 4CornersBelfast 2025, here's the interview I conducted with Jillayna Hines as part of the BBC Radio Ulster Morning Service in advance of the event in Knockbreda Community Garden. virtualmethodist.blogspot.com/2025/02/4-corn…

"The bees and the broad beans and the tadpoles teach us that there is no such thing as ‘life alone’ – we are all inextricably linked…" Jillayna Hines 4CornersBelfast 2025

Another piece I wrote some time ago for Holy Week, this time in the voice of Simon Peter. I wrote it in 2019, only a few months before my one person play "The Farther Shore", but whilst it has a similar tone, it doesn't cover the same ground. virtualmethodist.blogspot.com/2019/04/its-ti…

Tonight at our 7.30pm Tenebrae service in the Grosvenor Hall, we will hear the perspective of one of Paula Gooder's "Women of Holy Week" on the events of Good Friday, but here's a piece I wrote 3 years ago offering another woman's viewpoint.
