Somewhat unusual for a candidate to withdraw. Lots of prayers for all in @DioceseofDurham as the search resumes.

'Obviously, it is difficult to defend the leadership of @churchofengland... but I do feel strongly that its episcopal appointments should not be controlled by Channel 4 News & Cathy Newman'

Beware of any Christian movement that acts as though the world is full of enemies to be destroyed rather than full of neighbors to be loved.

In the pub the other night and a drunk football fan discovers I’m a priest, says he’s started going to church and starts asking me about the relationship between (1) faith and belief and (2) Christianity and OT Law. How do we expect people to minister w/out theol training?

For 18 days (from Petertide to the birthday of our former trustee, the late Anna Matthews), we hope to promote a conversation about vocations to the priesthood. This is an ongoing project to explore and support catholic vocations in the Church of England: ladypeeltrust.org/annamatthe…

You see, my dear friends, this is the problem of Sola Scriptura, in one tweet. If we merely go to the text, then one cannot say conclusively that Humpty Dumpty is an egg. Of course he’s an egg! Decades of authoritative nursery rhyme tradition declare that Humpty Dumpty is an egg! – at Brooklyn, NY

We were promised that if we abandoned Christianity we would have scientific secular materialism. Instead, we have: “magic bear”

Anglicans too often miss the point of study. It’s not really about knowing useful stuff or developing clever arguments or justifying our faith. Study is a form of worship.

“Repetition and rhythm in the liturgy are to be fostered. No rule is more frequently violated by the highly educated and well-meaning, who seem to think that never having to repeat anything is a mark of effective communication.”
