Worth listening to. For our democracies to function we need to learn to work together for the common good in our everyday rooted lives. Benedict can teach us a thing or two. We need to know our history- to know what we know and why.

Great programme about destructive individualism- how we exchanged a vision of solidarity to one of meritocracy. The kindness of local communities gave way to a mechanistic state bureaucracy. Can the church help restore compassionate local relationships? https://t.co/RiWBUSbGke

"We are convinced that there is another story. There is within the memory of the church a story of being a people who do not need to be shaped by social contract, consumerism and individualism." #covenant #joiningGod @T4CG https://t.co/oRXLdASEwU

Helpful article by @giles_fraser. We’d add that the purpose of “the parish” is the durable relationship between God and people and with place. When the church weakens its link with place, it breaks the covenant with the people. @msnorthcott @johnmilbank3 https://t.co/F8Odh9Ms9t

"Rather than speaking with the voice of prophecy, ...rather than proclaiming the miracles and mysteries that they uniquely exist to proclaim, church leaders have opted to talk like middle managers." Tom Holland. Is he right? https://t.co/K7X3ZMcGWd

[J Missional Practice @JMissPract]

Church leaders should not be talking like middle managers in this time of crisis  https://t.co/hNKeHitWic via @telegraphnews

At their best, the people of the church are the living embodiment of love. But we are not 'service providers' and church buildings are more than 'assets'. Churches have a profound relationship with place and express the sacred within the civic ecology.

“In moving from host to neighbour, in recognising its own vulnerability and those of others, the people of the church can take a lead in extending the hand of friendship and building the common good between previously isolated or estranged interests.” https://t.co/aO5I27W8em
