youtu.be/9ZSY549ZgqM Our colleagues heartily sing a theme song for Mark's gospel, which debuted in Nigeria along with @theMarkDrama in the last 2 weeks. Much more to come we think.
Thanks to Richard, Anna and Janneke and others for the suggestions, encouragement and singing.

This is true - at least the bit about 'Kith'
You might even get a free toffee
You can now buy ‘Kith’ (cheaper than online) at Edinburgh Books! This shop will not disappoint with its amazing range, lovely staff & quirky atmosphere. @EdinburghBooks

European civilization is built on ham and cheese, which allowed protein to be stored throughout the icy winters.
Without this, urban societies in most of central Europe would simply not have been possible.
This is also why we have hardback books. Here's why. 1/

Always nice to come across familiar passages in Old English translation. This is Ælfric, translating Isaiah: 'Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder, and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor...'

What a good example Her Majesty sets for us in handling grief. And indeed Jesus came to people longing for consolation. May she and her family lean ever more on the King whose birth we celebrate today. youtube.com/watch?v=q3mUkKan…

The ancient O Antiphons of the last days of Advent are best known today in the form of the hymn 'O Come, O Come, Emmanuel'. But centuries earlier they also inspired an Anglo-Saxon poem, which meditates on their rich imagery and powerful sense of longing: aclerkofoxford.blogspot.com/…

I’ve had a Twitter account since 2009 but recently started using it and following people. I’m a writer and wonder if we can do a #writerslift. I will follow you back.

Great interview: crossway.org/articles/podcas… It’s also good to prepare our Christian kids for thriving with Christ in a post-western world. Too easily we imagine the suicide of the west drags the church down with it.
