Rule of Life

Jane Silloway-Smith

Greetings from the future! But also, the past. Here in California we’re a calendar day behind you, but a week further into lockdown. At this point the novelty’s worn off, the news worsens, and crisis and uncertainty seem to be our new companions.

T-Rex Problems

Ashleigh Tuck

The Courage of Abraham

Andrew Shamy

My focus this morning is a story that sits at the heart of the Old Testament understanding of faith. It is a story about an old man asked to kill his own son by God, the story of Abraham and Isaac, of Abraham’s lonely walk to Mount Moriah, and his willingness to sacrifice his son there.

Luke Fenwick

I’ve spent some time in Paul’s letter to the Philippians recently, and Paul’s prayer at 1:9-11 has especially impressed me. That is, it has pressed itself upon me. Next week I’ll offer a fuller reflection, but here I want to touch faintly on Paul’s duty of and selflessness in prayer. With “longing” (1:8) Paul writes from prison to console the Philippians who grieve his absence.
