My mum came to visit yesterday and we went to Rochester Cathedral. The artwork in the picture is about Matthew 5. You can’t really see it on the photo, but each of the panels has a verse from Matthew, chapter 5 from The Message version of the Bible, stitched into it. It took me a [...]

Spring Harvest inadequately summarised

Posted in Animals, Religion, christianity, tagged , , , , on April 16, 2009 | 2 Comments »

I went to Spring Harvest (which I keep rather vaguely describing to people as “a big Christian thing”) over the Easter weekend. I would write more about it, but I’m still processing the stuff I learned and experienced, so writing about it in public will have to wait, if indeed this ever happens. In summary, [...]

Stuff I’ve been doing recently

The Saturday before last I went to view the Sacred exhibition at the British Library.  There were lots of impressive items on display.

Worrying…

Posted in Musings, Politics, Religion on October 16, 2006 | 4 Comments »

This isn’t a post about my tendency to worry, it is actually about something rather more important, and more worrying.
I don’t know all the details and ins and outs of the recent ‘row’, as they say on the news, about Muslim women wearing veils (or, more to the point, not wearing them), so please forgive [...]
