What is in Kelvin's Head?

  • Sermon preached on Trinity Sunday 2014

    The truth is, I’ve not preached on Trinity Sunday. I think I have preached on Trinity Sunday in my time at St Mary’s but certainly not many times and certainly not for a number of years.

    You see – I’ve been in charge of the preaching rota.

    But lo. Here I am having spent a couple of weeks off sick, now back to work. I’m grateful to colleagues for picking up various bits of work whilst I was indisposed.

    One of those bits of work that I had to ask someone else to pick up was devising the preaching rota….

    …and here I find myself – first Sunday back at work, preaching on the Holy Trinity.

    Am I fighting fit? Yes!

    Am I cowed by having to preach on the Trinity? Certainly not. (more…)

    Thank you, Kelvin, for this excellent sermon. I was lucky to attend the service last Sunday and am now lucky to have the chance to watch and read the sermon again. Having to deliver my first sermon in English in Nuernberg in two weeks time (some people try parachuting, for me preaching in English is more than enough thrill…….. ) I can get such a lot of inspiration from my St.Mary’s experience……….

Many tissues have been expended, much lemsip has been consumed and all the while, I’ve not been moaning. “Do you have a man-cold?” I’ve been asked on more than on occassion. I’ve denied it so far. After all, I think it is far better to leave man-colds…

  • What am I listening to?

    Well, thank you for asking. It has been a while. This evening, I’ve been listening to the Damnation of Faust live from the Met in New York on Radio 3. I’m very tempted to give their live Cinema relays a go too. Excellent idea. (And is it the answer to the problem of Argyll and…

  • Consultation time again

    A couple of years ago, I asked the congregation a series of questions in a Consultation Document. It was a most fruitful exercise. Somehow the folk at St Mary’s like being asked questions and like getting the chance to respond. Maybe most congregations would be like that if they got the chance. Recently, a small…
