• The Case for Same-Sex Marriage

    The Equality Network has just published a great resource as part of the final push towards the legalisation of same-sex marriage in Scotland.

    It is called Six Reasons to Support Same-Sex Marriage. It can be found for free online but there are also nice printed versions available from the Equality Network too.

    Here’s a pic of the cover.

Just as all of us who are about my age or younger in the UK are Thatcher’s children in one way or another, regardless of what…

    There has been quite a lot of chatter about the Principal of Wycliffe Hall, Richard Turnbull.

So, there is a new St Mary’s Cathedral group on Facebook. If you are connected with the Cathedral and have a Facebook…
