At the suggestion of Dave Warnock, I’ve created a Frappr map of UK Methodists. If you fall into this category of people belonging to the world then please go ahead and add yourself or your church.

On Sunday I was preaching at Abbots Langley Methodist Church. This Sunday, the first after Epiphany, is usually set up to talk about the baptism of Christ and this was indeed one of the set lessons for the day. However, when I looked at all the lectionary readings together the one characteristic that came through [...]
Yesterday marked the beginning of One World Week. I encourage you to take a look at their list of 40 promises (PDF) and promise yourself that you’ll do at least one of them.
I used this in the service that I preached (PDF) yesterday at Kings Langley Methodist Church.

Yesterday I preached for the first time in about 16 months as I’d taken a sabbatical to give more time to the children.

Louise and I were both brought up in the Methodist tradition and are comfortable with its social theology and doctrines, [...]
On Sunday I had the privilege of participating in worship lead by one of Local Preachers on trial.
The theme for the service was faith and he gave a great illustration for the benefit of the children in the service at the beginning talking about the hazel tree in his garden.
Sadly, his confidence let him down, [...]
It seems to have been quite a while since we managed to get to a service at our church together as a family. We managed it this Sunday for our Harvest Festival. Our Minister Rev. Will Hunter lead the worship and used the Parable of the Sower for the basis of the service.
As it was [...]
