Have written a piece reflecting on the CofE saying goodbye to 'Issues in Human Sexuality', and associated appeals to the value of 'due process'.

"Maybe we’re still weird, but Christian weirdness is more accepted because there are all sorts of other weird practices and beliefs that are permitted in our ‘you do you’ culture. Maybe, more positively, it’s simply a move of God. Whatever it is, we can’t be complacent."

This is a desperately sad read in the New Statesman. One particular sentence stays with me: "I cannot accept that I will not see him again." If the 'Quiet Revival' means anything, it will surely mean a significant recovery of the hope of eternal life, among those who grieve.

This is the Herefordshire village church where, for a few years, I was a teenage organist. (This may partly explain why I am passionate about the renewal and future of 'little, local, ordinary' churches!).
