NOW CLOSED: What the proposed Protect Duty might mean for churches
This is a laudable aim, and we support the Government in attempting to provide safety and security for the public; however, some of the proposals within the Protect Duty may not only fail to achieve this aim but may have a detrimental impact on churches. The proposals follow a campaign for…
Jesus, the compassionate job creator

One of the positive aspects of the digital revolution in general and with social media in particular is its capacity to create and maintain relationships, especially allowing us to keep contact with others over vast distances. Younger generations are the most connected in history. But quantity of…
The study
An important 2018 study asked almost 500 young adults what they observed in the most effective leaders. The three most popular answers were integrity, humility and passion. For many, these may seem surprising. Other attributes such as strategic, visionary and even intelligence were much further…
