Self-care, healthy eating, focusing on what an awesome human I am...I don’t know about you, but I’m tired of all the pointless activities I’m told to follow to counteract the joyless world we live in.

So what on earth can we do about it? https://t.co/ImMMpEKi8g

On ducks, dot-to-dots and rules, rules, rules. My latest post for @_SaltLondon

Don’t tell anyone, but at one point on Sunday I had four people from different households in my kitchen at the same time. I’m finding this phase of lockdown the hardest, mostly because I don’t really understand what the rules are trying to achieve. https://t.co/h9DAn4N4Ms

Why did justifying ourselves matter so much? Yes, we wanted to shield in peace. But it was so much more than that. We needed to be seen to be in the right, by people we’d never met before, who liked shouting at us. https://t.co/Z3ricWCzPH

What can the aftermath of the Great Fire of London teach us about the aftermath of COVID-19?

The world is on fire. Everything we thought we could rely on is going up in smoke. This is painful, but it is also an opportunity to start afresh. What would that take? https://t.co/PGqm5K11us

The death of George Floyd has sparked a global movement to end racism and injustice. But why do we feel this burning desire for justice, and how will it be achieved? https://t.co/IzDLvjkvfQ

It looks like we may be in lockdown for a little while longer, with many of us itching for freedom again. But what really explains our current restlessness and eagerness to escape confinement? https://t.co/auMjj9h1xO

Online church ‘attendance’ figures are soaring, Bible sales have increased by 55%, and Google searches for ‘prayer’ have skyrocketed. But God isn’t just a cosmic comfort-blanket; he wants to be the God of your whole life, not just your crisis. https://t.co/NFQU1IebYF

The prevailing worldview of the West leaves individuals ill-prepared to respond to the deprivation and suffering that has accompanied this virus. Here's why: https://t.co/DzI5fMoJsD

Today's comedy scene is littered with those who readily call faith in God an act of self-delusion. But are Christians the only ones at risk of deluding themselves, or do atheists need to confront the uncomfortable truths at the root of their own ‘faith’? https://t.co/9LA8PTTPOC

Covid-19 is an undeniably horrible disease. Everyday we're inundated with more tragic headlines & stories of those suffering around us. Naturally, we begin to ask questions about the world we live in, and many want an answer to one question: where is God? https://t.co/ecTJRDYEFT

This June I was meant to marry the woman of my dreams in a palace! Unfortuntely, COVID-19 meant we had to significantly change our plans, and it taught me some important truths in the meantime. https://t.co/HEuvtbyC55

Be it hacking off our hair, or indulging in endless exercise, we are all trying to cope in the Covid-19 chaos. But what is going on behind our compulsive inclinations? https://t.co/JcjgOdBkOu

The shock of watching the death toll rise as the world is battered by this invisible enemy is an example of something very evil in this world. The question of how God can allow evil to exist is, perhaps, the greatest obstacle to faith in the modern age. https://t.co/dy96bWBlGC

The world is in a season of fear and anxiety that we haven’t seen for generations. Everything seems to be spiralling out of control. How can we combat our fears and be at peace in the midst of the storm? Is it even possible? https://t.co/EbXpVdt1Yh

I’m aware our sexual inactivity is something that makes us pretty odd. It’s not down to a lack of attraction, self-isolation or any other issue that keep couples from having sex. For us, it’s a choice we made.

As Coronavirus spreads across the world, many of us have become anxious and are not sure how to respond to this pandemic. Can we find hope in the face of death and disease? https://t.co/VJXG4eEuUP

Even though every part of our lives is surrounded by comfort and technology; we have an exceptional level of personal freedom and liberty; and we have tastes and experiences our grandparents couldn't imagine, we are no happier. Why is that the case? https://t.co/MKofpQxdDe

Many of us think of patriotism the same way we would a venereal disease: we may happen to exhibit a few symptoms from time to time but we would be extremely uncomfortable to discuss it. Why do we feel so awkward about it? https://t.co/jGZJkkvn2J
