I didn’t expect to be doing that today…
This evening, I’ve done something I have never done before: I led a service of BCP Evensong. Nothing unusual in me doing that you might think, what with me being a vicar and all. Ordinarily, that would be true but it was the context that made this Evensong so unusual. This was a Flash Mob …

This Sunday, as part of the series on the book of Acts at St Francis’, I’m preaching from Acts 4.1-31. Here is the text as a Wordle: What is the significance of the subversive message of resurrection? Why did those in authority really dislike the message Peter and John were proclaiming?
