Should Christians use AI?
Moving with the times I have been a Christian for over 40 years and have always worked in technology. I currently work for a global bank in AI/Machine Learning, giving me a professional head start on others attempting to get to grips with this new technology. The most recent use of AI is by far the…

Boredom and the search for meaning
In the study, participants were placed in a room for up to 15 minutes with just their minds for company. They also had the option to give themselves a mild electric shock. Shockingly (pun intended), 67% of men and 25% of women chose to do just that. Why? Because we all get bored – and we really…

Parliament votes to legalise unsafe and dangerous abortion
Instead of the law protecting both lives in pregnancy, all unborn children have lost legal protections and women have been abandoned by those tasked and paid to provide care. Some women will risk their own lives and health in the name of ‘autonomy’. Others will be coerced into ‘choosing’ by…

Defining "Islamophobia" could restrict gospel freedom
Religion, politics, ethnicity and free speech are difficult conversations to have in a public forum without fear and are also a policy weakness for politicians who are either faith illiterate or struggle to appreciate the interaction between religions. However, there is no excuse to tolerate the…

Keir Starmer’s first year in office as prime minister: a tale of two halves
It is my view that the prime minister needs to shift his political focus from international statesman, where he has been more comfortable leading on the global stage, to driving the government’s domestic agenda. Labour’s first year in government has been chaotic and confusing at times and needs…

Why ‘colourblindness’ doesn’t help the church
When Michael was told this, he heard something like: “I don’t want to hear or acknowledge some of the most beautiful parts of who you are ethnically and culturally, and I don’t want to walk with you in the pain of what you have experienced racially.” It is not uncommon to hear “I don’t see colour.”…

From tolerated to celebrated: how we can include children in our services
I was intrigued. This wasn’t a typical Sunday morning; I was conducting research for my master’s degree into children’s voices in the church. Towards the end of the focus group, I asked a five-year-old boy about the sad faces. He confidently told me, “Those are the people in grown-up church. I…

Telling better stories: how Christians can reclaim media for truth
The rhythm of a weekly or daily paper has been replaced by the endless scroll. Social media, especially for younger generations, is now the dominant source for news and commentary. The influence of old press barons has faded, overtaken by AI tech entrepreneurs who control both platforms and…

New Relationships and Sex Education guidance published ahead of the 2026 school term
Education is an important aspect of a child’s life and – when done well – can complement their spiritual formation within the home and wider society. Jesus cares deeply about the educational attainment of children and teenagers, but He cares far more that the younger generation would know Him as…

Do not be silent: speaking truth in a culture of fear
So said Winston Churchill in the Commons chamber in October 1943, at the height of World War II. Even in a time of national crisis, Britain held fast to the principle of free speech. Enormous sacrifices were made to preserve it. But do we still cherish this freedom today? In 2019, Rev. Dr. Bernard…

The long and winding road of leadership
While the call to leave local church to join the Evangelical Alliance was a very clear one, it was also a strange one. I love local church; I believe that local church is, as Lesslie Newbiggin pointed out, “the hermeneutic of the gospel”. We understand and experience the gospel best in the life and…
