Staggeringly Revd Nicholas Baines, Bishop of Leeds, West Yorkshire, the Dales and any other bits that can’t afford their own bishop any more
Ukraine awaits the anniversary of the Russian invasion. Many have been forced to flee. People flee in the Big Book of Magic Stuff, including Jesus. This teaches us something.

Follow your heart, says Lauren, an apprentice motor mechanic. But enough about her, let’s talk about me. I tried being just a Christian, but brilliant as Christianity is, I decided to be a brilliant Buddhist as well. Oh, this caused such trauma, but I had to follow my heart, as the Big Book of Magic Stuff told me to. It was right for me. Me, me, me. You too can have courage like ME, to study Buddhism, like ME.You could be just like ME.

Rabbi Laura Janner-Klausner, Movement Rabbi at the Movement for Reform Judaism
Humans cope with natural disasters, such as earthquakes, by ignoring them. The Prophet Elijah did this. Elijah was commanded by the Invisible Magic Friend to do something, because the IMF sure wasn’t.

And in the Big News today from a Faith Perspective, I watched Happy Valley on the telly last night. It’s about the Dark Side. Psalm 23 talks about the Dark Side. Which brings me to Sudan, where terrible things happen. No matter how terrible everything is, the Invisible Magic Friend is always there, watching, doing nothing.
