“If me being gay was a choice, it was a choice that was made far, far above my pay grade…I wish the Mike Pences of the world would understand: that if you’ve got a problem with who I am, your problem is not with me. Your quarrel, sir, is with my creator.” theguardian.com/us-news/2023…

A delight to worship with the people of St John, Kidderminster, in their beautiful church this morning. Wonderful to have the gospel read in Farsi for the number of people there for whom it was their first language.

My prayer for @synod #LLF debate is that we will put away all judgemental language & speak with the language of grace. A Church of grace seeks to live deeply the life of God's love. @churchofengland has a distinctive call to serve all in our nation with a pastoral generosity.

The Bishop of Dudley and I have written to all licensed clergy in the Diocese of Worcester as the ‘Living in Love and Faith’ process draws towards its conclusion.

I am immensely sad to learn of the death of Her Late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. I give heartfelt thanks for her life of selfless service, undergirded and enabled by her deep Christian faith.1/2

Power without love is reckless and abusive, and love without power is sentimental and anaemic. Power at its best is love implementing the demands of justice, and justice at its best is power correcting everything that stands against love.’ Martin Luther King

The first thing anyone should have to do when they become a local councillor is make three local journeys: one by bike, one in a wheelchair, and one with a buggy.

As Her Majesty The Queen marks this poignant Accession Day quietly at Sandringham, I say simply: “Thank you Ma’am”. Our National Anthem is a prayer we’ve offered for Her Majesty for 70 years: “Happy and glorious, Long to reign over us, God save the Queen.” #PlatinumJubilee

Excellent advice from the Diocese of Exeter. Simple things that I am keen, along with the other bishops and archdeacons, to see us follow in @DioceseNorwich

Following the Prime Minister's announcement, local church communities in @DioceseNorwich will be working out how we remain safe. I want to actively encourage us to: - wear a face mask at church to keep others safe - keep social distancing, including at social events #OmicronAware

Sad to say St John’s has been the victim of vile language graffiti. Pray for the perpetrator/s. So sad that they feel the need to do this. Would be happy to engage with them to show we aren’t the 4 letter word they accuse us of being.Why couldn’t we have had a Banksie?! #sad

The news about the #OmicronVariant surely must reinforce the urgent need for wealthy nations to actively and wholeheartedly fund vaccination programmes in the economically poorest nations. We are a global family. Until the vast majority are vaccinated no one is safe.

Through the night Storm Arwen has brought a large stone from the tower through the north choir aisle roof of Worcester Cathedral causing extensive damage. I hope it won’t be regarded as an act of God!
