Supplied by a UK colleague ...

Here are some things which may be of interest: #1 David Wright on why Jesus chose the Vine as his last I am saying. #2 and #3 Christian ethicist Joshua Hordern and Vaughan Roberts on Christianity and politics; 4 John Lennox on evil and suffering; #5 talks from HTB's leadership conference with Anglican, Catholic and other speakers. #14 a clever new website for bible study from Tyndale House, how Christians voted and changes in hymn singing.

Prayers for you for the coming week:
