"Those seven vices became a means of understanding yourself and devising a route towards greater virtue."

✍️Dave Burke looks at the Seven Deadly Sins, devised long ago:

Steven Jones was working at a university in Siberia when his zest for life fell off a cliff. Everything he used to love had lost its flavour and his motivation had evaporated. A colourless mood descended on him, lasting for months.Steven’s an expert on the late Middle Ages (1100 AD to 1500 AD). St...

"Though this may seem far removed from your experience of life in a local church, it is not at all unusual within the global church."🌍

✍️Neil Watkinson details a Crosslinks programme to improve Biblical literacy internationally:

Imagine being a member of a church in which your pastor-preacher has no training in understanding or teaching the Bible, where there are few or no commentaries in his heart language, and where the model of preaching everyone has grown up with (and he has therefore copied) is simply telling stories o...

Christians often disagree over various "disputable matters" such as politics and preferred Bible translations.❌

🤳But what about the new issue of smartphones and children in the church? Lizzie Harewood considers:

We’ve been studying Romans 14 at church recently, and the teaching has covered "disputable matters" – issues where Christians, in good faith, may disagree.Politics, preferred Bible translations, and permitted leisure activities on a Sunday are all examples of what might fall into this category n...

"Regardless of the amount of property we own on this world, whether a palatial villa or a tent, it is important to get our perspectives in order."🏘️

✍️Andrew Drury on what awaits the believer in Heaven:

As I returned recently from a Bible conference, I saw two huge banners proclaiming in large letters: "Welcome Home." However, they were displayed outside a neighbour’s house – for I still had to walk a few more steps before reaching my own home.It seemed to me a quiet picture of a deeper reality...

If Andy Burnham wins in Makerfield, he and Wes Streeting will likely enter a summer contest to be Prime Minister with Keir Starmer.🔴

🤔But what do they think about Christianity and key issues? James Mildred takes a look:

It seems clear that if Andy Burnham wins the by-election in Makerfield on this coming Friday, 18 June, he will challenge Keir Starmer to be Prime Minister.We also know Wes Streeting, the former Health Secretary, will stand. These are the two "definites" – there may of course be others.

"Rachel Bedford speaks to an age that is obsessed by wellness, something that appears to be a desirable but an elusive pipedream."

📚Reviews Editor John Woods reviews Bedford's new book, Spiritual Health:

I begin most of my emails with the statement: “Trust you are well.” Most of us are happy when we are told, “You are looking well,” (even though at a certain age it means: “I see that you are still alive!)

"If worship is reduced to music, we risk shrinking a rich Biblical reality into a single activity."🎶

✍️Alistair Chalmers on Biblical worship, which is "far bigger and deeper" than musical style:

Ask a group of Christians what comes to mind when they hear the word worship, and many will immediately think of music. We speak of a “worship service”, a “worship leader”, or “a time of worship”, often referring specifically to congregational singing. Singing is undoubtedly a precious a...

"The film uniquely gives you time to reflect on such huge themes through hypnotic orchestral pauses that accompany your journey"🤔

✍️John Edward-Funnell discusses questions of humanity posed by AI:

Some of my most precious times as a father are when I get to share cultural moments that shaped me, with my children – blasts from the past. For example, when the radio plays an Oasis song and, to my surprise, my teenagers sing along to every word with me.In these moments of shared cultural experi...

"It seems as though there is a turning tide on the idea of 'social justice' being a positive thing."

✍️Layo Obembe discusses social justice, political differences and the church:

At a recent event, I was accosted by a younger Christian who spoke to me of the challenge of being an ethnic minority in her church.In our conversation, she mentioned that recently she had had a conversation with a fellow church member who'd said to her something to the effect that "social justice"....
