Book: Genesis

Kindred is beautiful – and it always draws a line (usually without realising). A sermon on Joseph, Jesus, and grace beyond the boundary.

Modern slavery, a half-hearted rescue, and a sinking disciple: a sermon on what makes a response to injustice faithful, not just felt.

Fear-driven religion and fear-driven politics run on the same engine. Paul knew it. Abraham discovered it. Grace is the only thing that breaks the cycle.

An ancient icon of the Trinity shows us a table of radical hospitality — and calls us not just to sit at it, but to become it.

The resurrection doesn’t restore what we lost — it reveals what we were always becoming: living icons through whom the world might glimpse the life of God.

A church discerns its new name while remembering that identity is not possession, but a journey of love shaped by God’s call to be a blessing.

The Church born when God poured out the Holy Spirit, is one in which barriers of ethnicity, language, sex, age, and social status are transcended and all are equal in Christ.

Both contemporary and ancient understandings of the rainbow sign point to God’s expansive love overcoming our fears and hostilities.

In baptism, the Holy Spirit is ordaining us (all of us) for mission.

The stairway to heaven is revealed in the darkest places and situations of our lives, in the difficult and dangerous places, in the situations where we least expected it.
