Don’t ignore the climate emergency and cost of living crisis as you draft energy security plans @BorisJohnson! That means
❌no new oil & gas production in the UK
✅investing in clean energy & efficient homes
It's time to secure a clean, green future for everyone #TheFutureWeWant

A number of people have asked me how we should engage with the issue of gender identity. As a first step I've written a blog to hopefully give some pointers and initiate a conversation. Please let me know what you think.

For anyone in Kerith who missed the vision night on the 13th June you might not have heard about our elders decision to affirm women serving as elders in our church. I'd encourage you to read my blog giving more details if you'd like to know more.

As a church we have been getting ready to welcome people moving to the UK from Hong Kong. I have written a blog to give everyone a few more details.

A new project I’ve been working on for Christian Leaders comes out next week... would love you to have a look and see what you think.

For all of you in the UK this is important. Our government is reneging on one of its most important commitments & ppl will die as a result. Theres no either/or between justice at home & abroad⁩ ⁦@BorisJohnson⁩ ⁦@RishiSunak⁩ ⁦@Tearfund⁩ https://t.co/Wb8mlOE98u

I’ve just started reading my friend Ian Galloway’s new book ‘Called to be Friends’, exploring John’s Gospel to show how we can become friends of God. I think I’m going to get through a lot of highlighter! https://t.co/aXeEkRrhRY

We finished! Catrina’s first ever sub 29 minute 5K.
A great job from all the organisers, and hopefully a step towards all sorts of mass events being able to start up. #reunion5k https://t.co/Oa36iZRchD

We were fortunate to have two deaf students study with us for a year which brought to our attention how incredibly hard it is for deaf people to be able to fund their studies with the added support that's required. Our COO has written about this. Please RT. Any ideas welcome.

Excited for this tonight. Much to pray about as we begin to come out of lockdown. I’ll see all of you not out shopping, having a haircut or sat in a pub garden at 8pm! https://t.co/TEYud1mgYH
