@simonmarksfsn.bsky.social thankyou so much for discussing International Aid on LBC just now. I'm constantly despairing about how little the most disadvantaged people in our world (for whom each £ makes many times the impact it could here) are discussed.

"I'm 75... I decided it's time I bought myself a little holiday home" Wow. Some call younger people entitled, meanwhile there are a few individuals in older generations who think that a holiday home is right whilst most younger folk can only dream of having an actual home. #BBCAQ

A pastoral reflection on ebola and the risks of love
Ebola has been spreading in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda. A terrifying disease, it must be handled with great pastoral wisdom and care. The former Chairman of the World Evangelical Alliance's International Council provides advice to the Church, which at first may seem counter-intuitive for followers of Jesus.

The word "evangelical" has been massively misused in the US for decades It derives from "Evangel", meaning good news -that Christ offers eternal life (heaven) to anyone who chooses to truly accept Him- but in theUS it's been co-opted as a label for political tribalism www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiiR...

I despair - some people are seemingly more interested in trying to point fingers at the BBC for reporting on Afghanistan (choosing to imagine that the reporting of something implies endorsement of it, so that they themselves can feel morally superior) than they are actually concerned for victims.

A please @labouruk.bsky.social, stop saying that it's up to us to stop Reform. YOU could stop a Reform government in 2029, by introducing the proportional representation so many in the country have been clamouring for. The only way Farage can win is through our crazy first-past-the-post system.

No version of Christianity that is faithful, orthodox & true can fit neatly into a Democrat or Republican box. Anyone who's trying to do that is giving up the best gift that we have, which is this word from outside that challenges the human assumptions and political boxes we’ve made. @kaitlynschiess

Two things can be true at once. People with Tourette’s often can’t control what they say. It’s incredibly distressing to watch the N word be shouted at Black people by white people in any circumstances, but particularly on national television. You can feel both of those things, I believe.

Pope Leo calls for kindness to strangers and the poor in Christmas message
Refusing to help those in need is tantamount to rejecting God himself, says pontiff during Christmas Eve mass Pope Leo has told Christians that the Christmas story should remind them of their duty to help the poor and strangers. In his Christmas Eve sermon, the pope said the story of Jesus being born in a stable because there was no room at an inn showed followers that refusing to help those in need was tantamount to rejecting God himself.

Listen to a caller called Grace on the phone-in on 5Live between 9-10 this am. She brilliantly distilled this & took down a reform supporter who felt they had the right to know the ethnicity simply because he wanted to. It was one of those moments when the clarity of thought was like a lightbulb.

US appeals court says Trump cannot continue foreign aid cuts
A U.S. appeals court on Friday declined to block a lower court ruling that said President Donald Trump's administration could not unilaterally cut billions of dollars of foreign aid, requiring the administration to quickly move to spend funds on projects authorized by Congress.

What does #Farage think "justice" is? It's not "justice" that we're born in to far more cushy lives than others in our world. In reality, we all *need* mercy & grace. Seeking only to inflict "justice" on everyone else whilst failing to examine our own hearts does not lead to a better world

gracehbdalton.bsky.social @gracehbdalton.bsky.social · 26/08/2025
#Farage says that "we cannot be responsible for all the sins that take place around the world" Sin is to flout God's law, and to disregard those suffering when one could help is sin. To help the victims of sin is not "responsibility". It's Jesus who offers to take our sin upon Himself.
