@glenscrivener I'd like to use that the next time I lead a church service on Sunday! (with suitable attribution, of course!!) :-)

@Olympics Simone de Beauvoir "briefly lost her teaching job after being accused of sexually abusing some of her students. She and her long-time lover, Jean-Paul Sartre...campaigned for the release of people convicted of child sex offenses" (according to Wikipedia).

@peterlynas He's never going to live that down!!! 😂

@glenscrivener I only read his book 'Questioning Evangelism' very recently - I wished I'd read it thirty years earlier...

@CSLIChicago @RandyDNewman I only read his book 'Questioning Evangelism' recently - I wished I'd read it thirty years earlier...

@kesleeman What a helpful addition to a debate that often feels very one sided in the media. The care home analogy illustrated one of the issues with assisted suicide so clearly. Thank you for speaking in such a measured and caring way.

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@glenscrivener @dr_blackham Oh. Wow!! Now I just want to share this with everyone!

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@glenscrivener Really clear, coherent, evidence-based arguments about why would should not change the law regarding assisted suicide. Thanks!

@JamieFranklin40 @ChurchTimes Not just traditional catholics but also evangelical complementarians (like me).

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@MartineOborne @churchofengland So has God suddenly stopped calling a particular group of people whom he seems to have called (& who have faithfully served him and his people) in the past? Has he suddenly come into line with your particular way of assessing whether people are suitable for ministry or not?

@sainsburys I was told last week by my delivery man, that substitutions are now being decided by AI. The 'intelligence' of today's substitution made me laugh: a plastic washing up bowl (to hold water) is substituted with a colander (with holes - to let water through). CLASSIC!!

@missgripper_ @dmaja99 @Transgendertrd Science still says that every cell in your body carries an identifier of which sex you are. It's that inherent.

@PrettySophieK Everything??? As someone who attends an Evangelical church, this is news to me!

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@Psephizo Peter Williams' words on the genius of Jesus seem relevant: "The tendency amongst intellectuals and academics is to make things very complex. Jesus aims at simplicity. He actually accuses the academics of his day—the Pharisees—of taking away the keys of knowledge."

@malchamb @PeterOuld It may be #justaphoto but why choose a picture that is such a disconnect with the verse?

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@charliebelllive Given the huge positive impact that Alpha has had in getting a wide range of anglican churches involved in evangelism, and the number of churches planted/grafted by HTB, it's hard to see why you think it's 'beyond absurd'. It's not him who's put the CofE on a divisive course.

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@PeterOuld I have to agree... slightly bizarre. Lots of promise showing... but that writing was just plain weird for a DW episode, even a Christmas one. Shame after the excellent recent Tennant-Tate offerings.

I absolutely LOVE this little video. It captures something special about church - and it's about serving coffee. Enjoy!

[Michael Wear @MichaelRWear]

What an incredibly powerful video

[Rebecca McLaughlin @RebeccMcLaugh]

I was raised in the Church of England & trained at a C of E seminary. This vote breaks my heart. It rejects the authority of scripture & far from blessing people who (like me) experience same-sex attraction it points them toward unrepentant sin that bars people from God's kingdom

[Corinne Brixton @CBrixton]

@Sarahmchaden To be fair to John Lewis, (a) the problem is with the Italian company Alessi, and (b) John Lewis labels it as a Christmas decoration.
