Clapping at communion: How bread and wine became symbols of hope
Sometimes the sheer sadness of a care home seems to engulf me â the brutality of what a combination of life and age does to people.
Is it time to go in search of lost prophets?
I have simply made a deal with myself to dig out books by people no one has ever heard of, who once were superstars, and bring this stuff back into the light.
'Keep them in the skies': How do we pray when the odds are against us?
I loved the romance of Northolt Airfield, especially as it was home of the Polish Spitfire aces during the war.
The Last Apologist: Was C S Lewis the last of the line?
What did CS Lewis have that modern apologists lack?

The joys of leading an unglamorous church
Whenever a church in a funky or wealth location advertises for a new vicar they are inundated with applications from those who just happen to be called to be a vicar there.
Punishing perfectionism: Why we should make more mistakes, not fewer
Dear Lord, please help us to make more mistakes.
In this ancient ritual I experienced the grace of God
Just sometimes in the church you get a sense of the weight of history and this was one of those nights.
Character counts: What really makes us who we are?
On a precious day in a hired lecture hall at a medical school where I had gone to church under protest I realised with precise clarity that there was a God.
What made me realise I'd become a community activist
We live out our Christian vocations as part of community and as community-builders. We pray 'your Kingdom come on earth...'
Want to know how to get the Bible's message? Try listening
