Meditation - sunday Before Advent Year C (2nd)
by David Middleton
Meditation – Sunday before Advent Year C Safe yourself Luke 23: 33-43 Save Yourself if you are the Messiah! The leaders laughed and scoffed at the sight of Jesus, nailed to a cross. His life slowly but certainly, ebbing away, he couldn’t save himself now! Finally Jesus was under …

Meditation – Pentecost Year C Help at last! John 14: 8-17 (25-27) ‘If you love me, obey my commandments,’ he said. Well that sounds easy enough, and to a great extent it’s perfectly reasonable. We really do love him, and just as he so rightly said, because we love him, we want to…

Meditation – Trinity Sunday Time Year C Tomorrow John 16: 12-15 Why? Why go to such lengths to fill us in, Father God? As I look back over the history of your relationship with us I am staggered at the lengths you’ve done to keep us informed. You are God, accountable to no one, f…

Poem: Even today
by Marjorie Dobson
Poem: Even today Even today, when so many people believe in nothing, or so they claim and others believe in crystals, ley lines and sun worship, which doesn’t seem to improve the weather one bit and others declare this life is all we’ve got, so who cares about anything except hav…

The Open Gate - The Eucharistic Prayer
by SPCK - David Adam
The Eucharistic Prayer At the centre of the Eucharist is the great eucharistic prayer. It is the offering of our Lord Himself to us, now in time and for all eternity. It contains the eternal relationship and love that our God always has towards us. It seeks to express deep myster…

by SPCK - Frank C Laubach
The Letters 21 AUGUST 1930 I shall be forty-six in two weeks. I no longer have the sense that life is all before me, as I had a few years ago. Some of it is behind—and a miserable poor past it is, so far below what I had dreamed that I dare not even think of it. Nor dare I think …

The Letters 22 SEPTEMBER 1930 We have got to saturate ourselves with the rainbows and the sunset marvels in order to radiate them. It is as much our duty to live in the beauty of the presence of God on some mount of transfiguration until we become white with Christ as it is for u…

With My WholeHeart - Psalm 73:1, 20, 25
by SPCK - James Jones
Psalm 73:1, 20, 25 The fact that this psalm continues to agonize over the success of the ungodly reflects how we ourselves struggle continuously to square the problem of evil with our faith in a loving God. ‘Then thought I to understand this: but it was too hard for me’ (v. 15). …

With My WholeHeart - Psalm 62:4, 8
by SPCK - James Jones
Psalm 62:4, 8 There are two hearts that are polar opposites. The cursing heart is not always plain to see. It can be well disguised, as in Psalm 55, when the person ‘having war in his heart’ can speak words ‘softer than butter’ and ‘smoother than oil, and yet be they very swords’…

With My WholeHeart - Psalm 58:1-2, 10
by SPCK - James Jones
Psalm 58:1-2, 10 It is curious in the modern world that whereas there is great emphasis upon human justice, there is so little acceptance of divine judgement. Yet the two are the opposite sides of the one coin. People seem to resist and even dismiss the idea of God judging us, wh…
