Thy Kingdom Come

✝️ One of the ways many Christians start and end prayer is by making the sign of the cross. It’s a reminder that we belong to Jesus, the crucified and risen one.

It has been announced today that the Bishop of Wakefield, Tony Robinson is to retire this summer.  We thank God for Tony and his wife Sue for their dedicated service to the Church and the gospel.

🥾 Happy #NationalWalkingDay .

First caught the walking bug when, as a curate in South London, I led a pilgrimage to #Walsingham . I’ve walked on pilgrimages ever since, including #StCuthbertsWay in 2022.

God has done everything necessary about everything evil – even death.

Eternal life is God’s gift to be grasped by every person, society, nation and place.

My Easter Day sermon at Canterbury Cathedral this morning: archbishopofcanterbury.org/speaking-writi…

✝️ Ever wondered what a bishop’s cross is for? Let me tell you about mine.

“When I’m lost, what I need more than anything is a guide, someone alongside me to show me the way. That is one of the great messages of Easter.”

You can watch back the The Church of England online Easter service, filmed on Holy Island, here 👇

Easter day is a day of celebration.
The dead wood of the cross has become the tree of life.
New Hope and new joy break forth. And we, the people of God rejoice.

“For Christians, what happened on that first Easter Day, Jesus rising from the dead, is an extraordinary truth. It changes, quite literally, the world. Nothing is the same again.” You can read my piece in today’s The Sun here 👇 archbishopofyork.org/news/latest-ne…

“Why do you look for the living among the dead? He is not here; he has risen!” Luke 24:5

On #EasterSunday join me in a prayer of thanksgiving.
