• 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

    Does that include red shoes?

      Red shoes may be worn by anyone sitting in the nave. Those at the sharp end know the rules.

      An exemption may be made for serving popes.

      But they’d match his red dress so nicely…..

    Popes may wear red shoes at the sharp end. Wannabe popes can’t.

    It is really that simple.

    Kelvin, I think that you should wear red cowboy boots in the sharp end! 😉

    I’m trying to think of what the ‘national dress’ of the USA is…I think that if I were there, I’d just wear t-shirt and jeans 🙂

    Kelvin is not wearing a kilt.

    Kilts, however, may be worn.

    I’m sure I heard a rendition in Elvish. Perhaps it was Klingon, but it was very loud.

    I did not attempt the Doric.

      Elves, Klingons, Doric speakers.

      All are welcome in this place.

      And to be honest, little would surprise me any more.

  • Should the churches use more data or less data?

    The trouble with data is not what you can do with it – it is what else you can do with it. There are so many interesting things that one might do with data these days which were simply not possible a few years ago. The question is, how many of them should we attempt…

  • Should there be missile strikes on Syria?

    It has taken me a little while to work out whether or not missile strikes against Syria are justified by the UK at the moment. It seems to me that there are quite a lot of people who don’t seem to need to take their time and know instinctively that military action either should or…

    A number of years ago, I was put in charge of the Information and Communications Board of the Scottish Episcopal Church. This meant that I was in charge of trying to formulate the church’s internal news and helping to work out our message to the outside world. I think it was fair to say that…

  • Good Friday Preaching – The Servant Girl

      The truth is, I only really noticed her on Sunday. I’ve never payed her the blindest bit of attention before. I guess no-one ever did. The servant girl who answered Peter back. She’s a woman in John’s gospel but a servant girl in the version that Matthew and Cedric were watching on Sunday. There’s…
