Analysis: Preparation for holy communion should be taken more seriously, writes Andrew Davison churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2025/…

Waiting for this man to have a day in the kalendar. St Thomas Skinner, re-evangelist of England. Bosh.

I may have gone too far when delivering a sermon condemning the moral risks of the excessive reading of louche French novels aimed gratuitously & obviously at the squire's worldly daughter. My catechising of the local children & servants is widely regarded as 2nd to none however

Let there be no ambiguity here, or hiding behind the language of “decriminalisation” — it is now legal to abort a child up until the moment of birth in Britain. What a desperately stupid and wicked country we have become bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I was not expected to survive birth, my parents had bought the teddy I was due to be buried with. Very hard, knowing this as well as many other cases I’ve encountered pastorally, not to view today’s vote in the House of Commons as an act of acute moral evil.

It is almost impossible to overstate just how dangerous the legislation that has gone through Parliament over the last year is to the weak, the poor, the sick and the vulnerable. History will look back on this period as monstrous.

Reading commentary on Zechariah 12-13. This mention of Bunyan is beautiful. “Every one of you…”

This isn't incitement. This is showing the truth of what YOU have made legal. YOU have decided that you want to allow the dismembering of babies. This is YOUR decision stellacreasy YOU have decriminalised the murder of children.

This entire Parliamentary process is an unspeakable dereliction of duty. When talking about the killing of human beings it is absolutely essential to ensure every concern is debated and considered. Every disabled and elderly person pressured into death is on their conscience.

This Sunday, 22nd June, is the first Sunday after Trinity. We will celebrate Corpus Christi, the Feast of the Most Holy Body and Blood of Christ (transferred). Services at St Philip's: 09:15 – Morning Prayer 10:00 – Mass

This sign sums things up perfectly #assistedsuicide

I'm scared today - but nowhere near as scared as the vulnerable, poor, isolated, sick, elderly, disabled, abused, coerced and sidelined put at risk by this Bill.

What a heartbreaking outcome. The first duty of parliament is to protect the most vulnerable. At every turn, it has failed to do so. #AssistedDying #AssistedDyingBill

I keep coming back to Nina Power’s masterly observation that we are now ruled by the Aztecs with spreadsheets.

Keep praying for England. Never give up hope. Prayer and fasting can make every difference. God help our country! God protect all lives, particularly the vulnerable.

"For your hands are stained with blood, and your fingers with iniquity; your lips have spoken lies, and your tongue mutters injustice." Isaiah 59:3

All Christians have to now be clear. Infanticide and murdering the sick are against the natural law. Therefore, according to the entire witness of Christian tradition these ‘laws’ are invalid and are not laws. They can in principle be resisted by all non life-threatening means.

On the day when the House of Commons, albeit by a very small margin, voted to abandon the vulnerable and undermine end of life care, the Third Collect at Evening Prayer is necessary:
