What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Scottish Episcopal Kalendar 2024

    For years now, I’ve produced a Kalendar for the Scottish Episcopal Church with all the bible readings set out for the year.

    This year’s Kalendar is available online so that anyone can download it and print it out for themselves.
    It is available right here: Kalendar 2024

    Anyone who would like to make a donation because they enjoy the Kalendar so much and want to encourage me to keep doing it is welcome to do so via paypal.

    Alternatively, anyone who wishes to purchase a printed copy can do so here: Buy a Kalendar

    collective nouns

    Ah no, Kelvin, I think we need a better collective noun than that.
    A multitude of midge?  A malevolence of midge?  I’ll tell you, they’re easier to herd than clergy (just how many priest does it take to start a gospel response?).

    That mural
    The “mural” is (a) a testimony to our poverty and (b) the result of using “the wrong kind of paint”. Just think scabby Greek churches and pious thoughts and all will be well ….

    I rather like the idea of a mural rather than the strange growth of damp through paint. Did you notice any less disturbing scenes on any of the other walls? Christ stilling the storm perhaps?

  • Love means Love

    Members of the Scottish Episcopal Church voted earlier this year to allow the marriage of same-sex couples to be able to be conducted by those clergy who wish to conduct them.

  • 75 questions for people who want to help churches to grow

    Helping churches to grow is hard work but there are some things that need to be addressed to help congregations to grow which seem to be fairly consistent across churches which are otherwise very different in style. Some time ago I published two lots of 25 questions for people who want to help churches to…

  • To be an Episcopalian is not to be respectable

    To be an Episcopalian means not to be respectable. This morning’s gospel reading is one of the most interesting of the stories about Jesus that are ever told. Even if we’ve heard it before, it still has the capacity to surprise. He said what? And what did she say in response? A mother begs for…
