Tomorrow, I’m preaching once again at St Mary’s, Newport-on-Tay so having had a full and busy week I’m sitting at my PC on Saturday morning/afternoon pouring over the gospel reading (John 4: 5-42) searching for inspiration.
I already have a sermon that I’ve preached on this Sunday in the lectionary (Year A, Lent 3) but I’m […]

We’re funny creatures human beings. So ready to blame ourselves when something goes wrong.
Sitting at your computer, you open Outlook to check your email and then quickly open Messenger. The computer freezes. “What did I do?! Was that me? I must have done something wrong.”
