Lots of us will have been singing versions of Psalm 23 today – it is the set psalm for the the day, paired with the gospel reading about the Good Shepherd.
After church this morning at the God Factor, I was in the hot seat and being quizzed by the participants about what I thought about gender and God.
I think I like this, very much:

Its International Women’s Day today.
We had an interesting presentation on the Scottish Episcopal Church’s recent Gender Audit at Diocesan Synod on Saturday. Immediately after the presentation by Elaine Cameron, a bunch of men jumped up and started saying that they didn’t believe in positive discrimination.
They did sound rather threatened and terribly anxious.
I wonder why.
It has broken out online too, with Father Kenny saying this and Mother Ruth retorting thus.
I’m not joining this debate right now, but I might in the future. Instead, I think my contribution today is going to be to point people to an old sermon I preached about Saucy Salome. You can hear and read it here.
