Thank you for reminding us about this great defence of divine simplicity. Important in this Nicene anniversary year, not to mention its pastoral application and apologetic value.

Just spent 40 minutes with our Hol Club junior leaders over lunch break. We covered the two natures of Christ via heresies of Nestorius, Apollinarius, etc, then nailed the sign of Jonah in Matthew 12 38-41. Who said youth ministry is easy?

My diagram, ‘Possible causes of your problems’. Reposting, a year and a bit on, as it still seems relevant.

An important statement of how evangelical Anglicans relate Scripture, tradition and reason and why this mode differs from most other evangelical groupings. open.substack.com/pub/bryanhollo…

Noticed an emphasis shift toward therapeutic language in church? Me, too. Esp in our songs. Jesus rescues us from more than fear, doubt, sorrow, and shame - negative emotions associated w/sin. He rescues us from sin itself - its penalty, its power, and ultimately its presence.

Taking a burial service this week I was struck by how thoroughly weak CW is on Christian faith and resurrection hope. I used mainly the BCP, modernising in places. It makes me ask the 'X' C of E hive mind: has anyone tried to get a contemporary BCP authorised by Synod?

Christians are amongst those targeted by Al-Shabaab militants in a string of devastating attacks in #Mozambique. "Please pray for those in need. Prayers are needed and actions are needed as well," says a field source. opendoorsuk.org/news/latest-ne…

Loved the #Railway200 @RailwayMuseum exhibition currently at Norwich station and these six iconic characters and films around the theme.

Encouraged by the recent rediscovery of shepherding the flock as the ministers/elders task and using Richard Baxter as a model, my challenge is whether we Anglicans should think parish visiting, not just Sunday flock Teaching New Elders to Be Shepherds—the Baxter Project - 9Marks

"We are asking if it is possible to remember us in your prayers." Christians in Suwayda, Syria, are caught up in terrible violence. Father Tony shares his call for prayer from the church hall where he is sheltering many who've had to flee. Please pray for #Syria today

We need to pray for grace among Reformed Protestant evangelicals. Ironic.

Very moving and heart-warming to hear @MattMBarrett laud the many riches of Anglican ways of doing theology, ecclesiology and worship, when we in the @cofe are so often belaboured with her evident failings. Brave post, too.

Great suggestion. I love the music at @KeswickMin but the faces and fingers of the band are a distraction from the Lord and His word.

Keswick put up the music for Ps 100 (All people that on earth do dwell) on the screen so the whole congregation could sing in harmony. They should do this for everything. Much more useful than a video of the band in the background.
