MORSEL FOR MEDITATION
The world needs the church, but not to help it run more smoothly or make it a better and safer place for Christians to live. Rather, the world needs the church because without the church the world does not know what it is nor who God is. The only way for the world to know that it is being redeemed is for the church to point to the Redeemer by being a redeemed people. The way for the world to know that it needs redeeming, that it is broken and fallen, is for the church to enable the world to strike hard against something that is an alternative to what the world offers.
-Stanley Hauerwas, Jesus Changes Everything: A New World Made Possible (Walden, NY: Plough Publishing House, 2025), 115.
Before God changes our circumstances, He wants to change our hearts.

TALISDAIR MACINTYRE RIP
It may seem quaint that a moral philosopher should still matter in our frantic and tech-saturated world, but MacIntyre, who died yesterday, has. He lies behind things we are familiar with in our culture- the popularity of talk about ‘narratives’, for example, and the rise of ‘post-liberal’ kinds of Christian theology. He made no effort to make himself popular or user-friendly, but in this tribute I will highlight five ideas of immediate relevance and importance. (continue reading)
TOWER AND TEMPLE TURN TO DUST
by the Rev. Canon Victor Austin:
Pride of man and earthly glory,
Sword and crown betray his trust:
What with care and toil he buildeth,
Tower and temple, fall to dust.
But God’s power, hour by hour,
Is my temple and my tower.
