• Joyful Songs of Praise

    Was delighted to be on Songs of Praise yesterday along with two members of the congregation who were talking about the blessing of their civil partnership last year which was part of their journey into marriage.

    I think I’ve had more feedback from this than any other piece of broadcasting I’ve ever done, overwhelmingly positive. A couple of grumpy people contacted me by email to express their concern but the rest, particularly from colleages and friends in England was hugely supportive.

    Take a look here:

    Glad the questions have been of use. Let me know how your conversation goes. I asked the questions without any clear purpose, but have a sense that they are more important than I realized. So now, I am working on what to do with them. Suggestions welcome. Here or there.

    Thanks for the clarification. I had tracked down that it came from the ACC meeting in 2005 so I realised that it might have come before Synod last year. However trying to track down a summary of the decisions of the 2006 proved to be a fruitless task. Thanks again.
