our first Open Day is coming up soon on Feb 10th! the CMS MA programme enables cross-cultural learning with a practical edge. if you're considering theological education, come along (in-person or online) and see if Church Mission Society is for you. churchmissionsociety.org/pioneer/stud...

pleased to see this statement from my org in light on recent (but not new!) anti-immigration sentiment. "This is an opportunity to lead with faith, to counter fear with compassion and to demonstrate a gospel-shaped response that embraces hospitality above hostility." tinyurl.com/t9jwpuf3

📢 @jdportes.bsky.social "We have yet to hear a Cabinet Minister point out that migrants now fill 1/5 jobs in the UK, that they are more likely to be employed & less likely to claim benefits. Diversity should be our greatest strength, and it is that argument that anti-immigration zealots fear most."

Britain Is Getting the Immigration Debate All Wrong
There are worrying signs about the country's direction, as Reform tops the polls, and mainstream politicians chase the far right, writes Jonathan Portes.

this week's task: refine the content for first term's "Church History in Asia" module on the CMS Asian Christianity MA! last year we looked at Christianity and nationalism in Korea, mission and empire in India and the Philippines, and minority status of Christians in Burma.

utterly depressing and deeply concerning from Kier Starmer, but also unsurprising. how fitting it is to be attending our Acts 11 project seminar with Prof Esther Mombo on migration and the meaningful role that African migrants play in shaping and revitalising Christianity in the UK today!

qualitative research is all fun and games until you have to transcribe interviews and listen to your own voice over and over again 🫠

please share and message! i'm looking to speak to minority Christians about their sense of belonging, identity, and place w/in Scotland. as a Christian from a minority background myself, it's a topic of personal interest too. interviews will be 1-1.5h, and can be in person in Edinburgh or online.

🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 CALL FOR PARTICIPANTS: Ethnic Minority Christians and Scottish Identity 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 The brilliant @nhatzaw.bsky.social is looking to speak to Christians from an ethnic minority/global majority background. Interested? Contact Nuam at nhatzaw@ed.ac.uk. Please share widely!
A poster describing the research. Blue background and Scottish flag, with the title "Call for participants: Ethnic Minority Christians and Scottish Identity." The text underneath reads: "Interview participants are needed for a research project that explores how ethnic minority/global majority Christians in Scotland understand and relate to "Scottishness" and Scottish national identity. It will examine how their faith influences their personal identity, experiences of belonging, and their connection to Scotland. The researcher, Nuam Hatzaw, is a Christian from an ethnic minority. This research has received ethics approval from the University of Edinburgh. If you are 18 or over and identify as a Christian from an ethnic minority/global majority background (and) have lived in Scotland for at least five years then you are qualified to participate! Contact Nuam: Whatsapp: +44 (0) 7929799464 Email: nhatzaw@ed.ac.uk." At the bottom are the words "Centre for Theology and Public Issues, University of Edinburgh," and a small logo which shows the University in navy blue with "CPTI" underneath.
