• Adam and Eve – Sermon

    Here’s the video of yesterday’s sermon – somewhere along the way I’ve managed to lose the text, but the video is here in full.

Oh, and I included a semicolon. See if you can spot it.

    There have been a few (episcopal) head over the parapet moments recently that should not go unspotted. Firstly, Bishop Idris’s interview on Good Friday.
