Training Incumbent

Was never a training incumbent so here are ideas honed from 20 years teaching CDT & 24 vicaring, having had great mentors aka @piphilthims

Hi. Here’s a thread. It’s an imaginary scenario with elements of truth. It’s not meant as a dig just a cautionary tale. It may take some time for the whole thread to come live as I’m copying it & refining it from @piphilthims The truth at the end always works x

[Mary Vickers @NELincsChaplain]

I am grateful today (as are several others) for this lady at church and her Tshirt!
As well as the immediate/intended effect, there were so many conversations about it after the service...

In the world's largest vacuum chamber, a bowling ball and feathers are used for a real-life demonstration of a concept Galileo first proposed over 400 years ago.

Dear @RishiSunak

Please put politics aside. Think if it were your wife or one of your girls lying in an ambulance or hospital corridor with no one able to attend to them.

Show your humanity and call a state of emergency and urgent COBRA meeting

Dear @churchofengland #bishops
We need to talk about the #CDM.
It’s over 3 years since @thesheldonhub @smmretreat first raised the alarm about the terrible harms being done by #CDM to #clergy and #clergyfamilies. It’s pretty rubbish for .../1

[Philip Smith 💚🧡 @piphilthims]

Today’s a good day to put @OurCofELike in your notifications as @TheSheldonHub @smmretreat have the reins this week & are raising the profile of the long overdue reforms to CDM in @churchofengland @paulbayes @alantlwilson @rosieswiss @oxforddiocese @GlosDioc @ChurchTimes x

[Greenbelt Festival @greenbelt]

We’re gutted to say that we're having to cancel Greenbelt Festival for a second year. We've worked to the wire to try and go ahead. But we can't go any further without insurance. We're heartbroken, but still hopeful. We're down. But we're not quite out. https://t.co/gf4hBPj4oD

@BishGloucester Hadn’t realised I saw this on the alias x

[Training Incumbent @TrainingVicar]

@BishGloucester Love the fence and wall drawing the eye to the lake & fab clouds. Great pic x

[Training Incumbent @TrainingVicar]

@HenryPriestman loved your ‘don’t you love me no more’ featured on @BBCRadio4 #somethingunderstood having been made redundant or as in my institution dispossessed which was odd as I didn’t know I was possessed x

Here’s a thread of 10 Commandments or suggestions for any religious tradition, a church or even a diocese. As my dad would say ‘if the cap fits, it’s probably not your cap’*

* that’s not actually true, he said ‘wear it’ x

[Training Incumbent @TrainingVicar]

Belonging is not essentially about belonging to something, but knowing you are accepted somewhere, not for what you offer or believe but simply for being you. Belonging to a church is not about having a faith or a set of beliefs but others encouraging and believing in you x

[Training Incumbent @TrainingVicar]

Gonna post on here some of my songs with a bit of info & a simple unaccompanied video.

The words found on a ‘blessed thought’ card are anon so can’t attribute them.

It has a rhythm of a shuttle on a loom
