Holy roller and rambling man. Church leader at St Luke's Blackburn. In God we live and move and have our being.

Why are the US and Germany not following the U.K. in trying to ensure that Ukraine wins the war?

[The Christian Institute @christianorguk]

Revd Dr Ian Paul expresses astonishment at a report by a group of bishops which recommends CofE churches offer “prayers of dedication, thanksgiving and for God’s blessing” for people who have been through a same-sex civil ceremony.

[Dr David Bennett @DavidACBennett]

My question for the @churchofengland remains this: is Jesus Christ the Lord or the world and its ways? It seems to me it is losing grip on the latter and being conformed to the pattern of this world. Jesus promised persecution if we say yes to his lordship. Don’t flee it.

[Church of England Evangelical Council - CEEC @ceecuk]

What will a compromise do for gay or same-sex attracted members of the @churchofengland?

Ed Shaw, pastor of Emmanuel City Church, Bristol expands on the effects. Do you agree?

May our Bishops @churchofengland @synod be reminded of their ordination vows "Will you teach the doctrine of Christ as the Church of England has received it, will you refute error, and will you hand on entire the faith that is entrusted to you?"

Heard the one about the sophisticated journalist and the devout @Deliveroo guy? (from Wednesday’s @thetimes )

[Shane Claiborne @ShaneClaiborne]

I’m tired of politicians and preachers offering “thoughts and prayers” after every mass shooting while simultaneously refusing to take the necessary actions to end gun violence… this is what it means to take the Lord’s name in vain.

[Rachel Gardner @RachelGardnerRA]

‘When are we going to do something? I’m tired of the excuses and moments of silence. Enough…we can’t grow numb to this.’

THIS is what it means to speak truth to power.

Thank you Steve Kerr.

[St Luke’s Church Blackburn @Stlukeschurchbb]

It’s VISION SUNDAY 🔥🔥🔥

““Christian” means “little anointed ones”. But when God’s Spirit is poured out, there’s nothing “little” about it. We’re a franchise of heaven. That’s why our mission statement is to love God, love each other and love God’s world” 🙌🏼☝🏼🔥 @Gardnerblurb

[Rachel Gardner @RachelGardnerRA]

Can’t tell you how much I love the church and how much I love our church. A bunch of imperfect people, meeting with a perfect God and becoming family in Jesus. @Stlukeschurchbb
