  • Cross listing

    I find myself starting to be listed o­n other people's blogs – most notably this week the textweek blog. Textweek is an excellent collection of resources for preachers. I post sermons after the event – www.textweek.org has lots of links to people who post before the Sunday in question.I wonder how many get abuse because…

  • Sermon – 14 March 2003 – Lent 3

    Sometimes o­ne opens the pages of scripture o­nly to find written therein, questions and comments which seem to relate very precisely to the current conversation in the global village.This morning, as the world reflects o­n the sudden outbreak of terror and destruction in Madrid, the gospel falls open at a page when Jesus is speaking…

  • 10000 hits

  • The Mysteries

    How can the mysteries of the faith be expressed o­n stage or film? Mel Gibson?s rather gory answer to this question is currently to be seen in cinemas across the land but for a more thoughtful and more fun version of the Passion with plenty of other biblical stories thrown in, take a look at…

  • Review – Resurrexit – Decani Music

    In the time since I was ordained some 7 years ago, there has never been a Holy Week in which someone has not telephoned to enquire where o­ne might find a copy of the Exsultet ? the ancient Easter hymn of praise. Sometimes the request is more specific ? where can o­ne find a singable…
