Latest News & Writing

  • Pentecost sermon24/05/2026
    Ten days ago, at Ascension, I talked about the fear, and sense of inadequacy that might have plagued the disciples when Jesus ascended, and of the powerful demonstration of God’s trust in them in the act of leaving. And here, today, we see the fruits of that trust, and of the gift of the Holy Spirit. Jesus’ followers are emboldened, and empowered. The Spirit of God breathes within them, and they are transformed.In that instant, they became the eyes with which God looks compassion on this world. They became the feet with which God walks to do good. They became the hands, with which God blesses all the world.

  • Ascension Day sermon14/05/2026
    This feast of the Ascension is an astonishing moment that demonstrates that Jesus had absolute confidence in his disciples. He has this same confidence in us who are his church today, if we can only believe it. Ascension tells us, who believe in Jesus, that God truly believes in us.
