"The greatest burden a child must bear is the unlived life of the parents." - Carl Jung

Jazz Vespers this evening was sublime. The wonderful Mark Oakley ‘‘The story you live in is the story you live out”.

Lovely to be with some old friends Festival_Preaching including Paula Gooder and Barbara Brown Taylor

Thank you to all the organisers of Festival_Preaching for an inspiring time. Great to meet Amy-Jill Levine and hear her unstoppable exegesis!

Aloha. The world passes through Southwark. Lovely to welcome David, Rector of St James’, Hawai’i, today.

"My resolution on return is to have a good “complain cleanse”: to abandon the delusion that complaining is 'being realistic' rather than an attitude; and to try to weaken the complaint toxicity that seeps everywhere" - Mark Oakley churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2024/…

I’ve been privileged to know Wendy Cope ever since I was a curate. So delighted to be at the launch of her Collected Poems this evening. She is a skilled poet, wise, fun, and a loyal friend. Faber Books

A group from the Cathedral happy to be visiting our partner Cathedral in Bergen this weekend, and today a visit to Kvinnherad kyrkje in Rosendal. Lovely constellation on the ceiling from 1250.

Our Cathedral group takes a bracing boat trip back to Bergen. So lovely to be in Norway and celebrating our partnership with Den norske kirke
