One of the greatest privileges of last week's meeting of the European Baptist Federation in Albania was sitting with colleagues on the front line in Lebanon and Ukraine, hearing how Baptist churches are often helping out in areas where other NGOs are unable to reach, at great personal risk

I've dug this out of a postgraduate module on research developments on the prophets I did - but that degree was six years ago, and I wrote this particular essay three weeks after two emergency spinal surgeries and very high on pain, so your mileage with it may vary...

I was listening to this during the washing up and it was simple enough that even I understood it...

30 years ago, I was a six year old on holiday with my grandparents watching the chaos of boats trying to get through the lock at the Barrage D'Arzal (Morbihan/Brittany) - nearly every summer of my childhood was spent here. It's special to be back here, now with my own small children in tow.

Thrilled that a new episode of @originstorypodcast.bsky.social dropped so that @iandunt.bsky.social and @dorianlynskey.bsky.social could accompany me for my morning run and swim

Nearly 28C inside our flat, despite all blinds closed during day and windows only open between 5am and 7am to let cool air in. No wonder the kids are grouchy today...

An der britischen Politik gibt es vieles zu kritisieren, aber irgendwie hat es etwas Gesundes, dass der vermutlich nächste Premierminister Großbritanniens gerade erst erfahren hat, dass er gewählt wurde – während er zwischen einem Fuchs und einem Kerl mit einer Mülltonne auf dem Kopf stand.

As I unexpectedly have one tooth fewer than this morning, I will cancel my other plans for the day, feel sorry for myself and finally begin reading Flesh

Got home from the US to find @lucysixsmith.bsky.social "When the Music Fades" in the postbox and I've read nearly all of it in one sitting this afternoon. So many things to wrestle with here, a really important book.
