If I don’t write stuff down, I forget it. So my desk is covered in small pieces of paper, scribbled with reminders. I’m sure there are better systems.

During lockdown I worked with art historian Debbie Lewer on podcasts looking at works of art. This year I’ve had a go at it myself, looking at The Crucifixion Triptych by Rogier van der Weyden. A #GoodFriday meditation.

You know how they say, “God broke the mould after he made you”? I think that’s true for all of us. Which is slightly inconvenient.

It’s now nine months until Christmas, which seems odd to think about in the middle of Lent.

Moving from single vision lenses to multi. 👓 Not just a sign you’re getting more mature, but a sign your faith is, too.

Several clergy colleagues were wondering this week how today’s gospel fits with Mothering Sunday. This was my take. #MotheringSunday #John9

I’m old enough to remember bottled water not being a thing – not like it is now. Today there’s not a single petrol station or airport shop that doesn’t sell it. Wellbeing wrapped in plastic.

I recently moved some furniture around in my study. There was a chair that nobody liked to sit in.

I woke up on Friday with no idea what I was going to preach. So I went for a run.

The three wise people. Normally, they appear at Epiphany. This year at St Michael and All Saints, they came at Ash Wednesday.

At Saturday’s Electoral Synod, I asked my colleagues whether they were preaching on Transfiguration or divorce. I opted for #divorce.

The Traitors is one of the most-watched programmes on British television right now.
It’s hard to imagine that has nothing to do with the moment we’re living in.

Someone asked me recently what being in God’s presence feels like. Honestly, any answer to that question probably sounds a little kooky. So how do you explain it in a way that makes sense? And what if it doesn’t?

Religion’s had a lot to say.
