Pleased to have my first peer-reviewed article published - looking at the historical & spiritual links between the Salvation Army, @eberhard_arnold & @TheBruderhof in the Journal of Ecclesiastical History - out today. doi.org/10.1017/S00220469240…

This recent @TheRestHistory series was a favourite of mine - and I’m relieved that @gtomlin’s endorsement means that when I next teach my class on the Reformation it’ll be a sound source to recommend!

The 8am band on fine form yesterday!
Hearing the @salvationarmyuk brass band at Christmas is one of my favourite things! Thank you for brightening this cold and rainy morning at Paddington! 🎄🎄

People often talk about the power of @AmazonUK’s algorithms, the way Alexa always knows what you need, and the pointedness of their custom ads. However, here is proof that Amazon isn’t as smart as it’s credited for!

Always good to have the inimitable @nicholascoke firing up the cadets & students at WBC this morning about social justice - what a quote from SA History too! Getting in good trouble…

Jesus rises from his knees and calls his disciples. “Rise, let us be going,” he says, and goes before them—to the Cross. There is the pattern of leadership for the church.

Every leader runs into these circumstances. How they respond when they do has the potential to create extraordinary change.

So much of immigration policy is about optics, populism& politics than actual facts.@BBCNews is reporting that the #BibbyStockholm will cost £6mil per day for 500 passengers when full. That’s £84,000 pp/pw. How is that effective spending? FWIW - a 7 night med cruise is £879 pp/pw

Ahhh…a face for radio appearance!
