As we await the announcement this morning of who the new Archbishop of Canterbury will be (10am UK time), I'm profoundly aware of the contrasting theologies held within the Anglican communion on different issues, and therefore the need for #prayer as this news is unveiled. 🙏

@alison_whitwell The last few have been 2 or 3 days... so if this follows suit maybe by Friday evening?

I took this photo in 2013. The balcony prepared for a new Pope. Today the #conclave has begun. The 1st smoke due shortly. There are Pope outfits ready in different sizes for whoever gets elected! But rather than speculate over who it will be, I choose to pray: Come, Holy Spirit!

Good Friday is not the end of the story. Death is not the end of our stories either. We have the hope of heaven, where there is no pain or weeping. #GoodFriday #Easter #Sundayisc

@JusBrierley Always cutting edge, Justin. One step ahead of the Waterloo and City line!

Such a weird experience! I’m not sure if I like the future…

@benedictrogers @PremierRadio It was actually @MadelineKerzner who interviewed you, I think, but it sounds like you had a good time!

My interview on @PremierRadio's "Faith, Hope and Love" show with @WomaninLondon, about #HongKong, #China, #Myanmar and beyond I was denied entry to Hong Kong! - Faith, Hope, and Love with Maria Rodrigues - Premier Plus premier.plus/faith-hope-and…

@alison_whitwell And to you, Alison. Every blessing.

This #Easter Sunday, consider the evidence for #Jesus and ask God if he's real. Don't miss out on the greatest #love of all time! C.S.Lewis: "Christianity, if false, is of no importance, and if true, of infinite importance. The only thing it cannot be is moderately important."

Things don't have to be perfect this #Christmas, joy can be found in the humility of a manger.

@TransformingBeh Wow. Hidden talents!

When you go to visit your friend in Nottingham and get roped in to open mic night! 🎤 'Made a Way'🙌🏽 If you know, you know! 💡

Being kinder to yourself doesn't mean letting yourself give up on your dreams and vision, it means cheering yourself on to get back up after set-backs or disappointment.

"If all flowers wanted to be roses, nature would lose her springtime beauty and the fields would no longer be decked out with little wildflowers." - St Therese of Lisieux reminding us that if we all try to be the same, the world would be a less beautiful place.

The question to ask is not WHETHER we will fail in life, but HOW we will deal with failure. Don't let one disappointment or negative word stop you from pursuing your dreams.

We all need people in our lives who will encourage us to step out of our comfort zones. Sometimes others can see potential in us that we cannot see in ourselves. I'm truly grateful for all the times I've grown because others gave me a loving push. Encourage someone today!

Before most of the nation awakens, there are individuals and groups across the land up at dawn, interceding for our world and drawing close to God to get strength before the day ahead. They might be unseen behind closed doors, but they do not go unheard -God is listening. #prayer

SHINE BRIGHTLY! // Sometimes the impact of our lives can seems small. Be reminded that a tiny acorn has the potential to one day provide shade for many people as it becomes a might oak tree. So don't despise the day of small beginnings. Keep seeking to use your life for good.

You are more than your grades. Some people do poorly in exams, but go on to be successful entrepreneurs or world changers. Others get great grades, but many years later still can't work out what to do with life. Don't stress. Dream big! #ResultsDay2023 #alevels2023 #alevels

Prayer is about presence, relationship, longing and heart connection. It's about gazing and adoring, not just asking for things. #Intercession is important, powerful and necessary, but if that is our only form of #prayer then we are not experiencing the fullness of God's design.

What we fill our ears, eyes, hearts and minds with affects the output in our lives. Give us wisdom, Lord, and a hunger to be the purest channels possible of your love and power to a hurting world. #prayer

@RPaulDavies @PremierRadio It was so good the hear something of the journey the Lord has taken you on. You can listen back to the conversation here: premier.plus/faith-hope-and…

Great to talk to you this morning @WomaninLondon at @PremierRadio. Thank you so much for being a voice of hope. Thankful for all those who work in broadcasting in our nation.
