Turn your frustration into prayer
Over the last few years I had been hearing more and more stories of increasing openness and interest in faith. Stories of miracles and visions, stories of answered prayer and stories of people finding Jesus. But I wasn’t seeing these stories first hand – just hearing about them from others. It was…

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…

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…

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The rhythm of a weekly or daily paper has been replaced by the endless scroll.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…

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…

Pointing young men in prison to Jesus
Spurred on by Romans 5:8 which says, “But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us” and Romans 10:14 which says, “And how can they believe in the one of whom they have not heard? And how can they hear without someone preaching to them?”…

My story: Usha Reifsnider
“We lived in an area of the West Midlands that was mostly White, and there wasn't an Indian community on our doorstep. My dad was one of the first men who was able to bring his wife over from India, and so all the single men who’d had to come on their own had a sense of community that was centred…
