Every time I have ventured into print on church-related matters, mainly in writing letters to the press, ecclesiastical or secular, almost by return of post comes a letter containing quotations from one J.C. Ryle, who I understand was the first Anglican bishop of Liverpool and, appropriately enough from that address, despite his firm commitment to evangelisation, a vocal evangelical scourge of Ritualists...

I have just heard the Bishop of Liverpool give an impassioned plea for postmen to be recognised as an essential glue for UK society even if he backed off from the absurd contention that every community needs to have a...

I know that most Palestinians are horrified by the behaviour of Abbas and his cronies in withdrawing a critical motion of support for the Goldstone Report from the UN’s Human Rights Committee. However Palestinians should not think there is anything exceptional in Abbas’s behaviour. Indeed he is merely following in the footsteps of his Zionist friends. In 1933, when Hitler came to power...

The Party Conference season has come and gone and for many of you it will have given an opportunity to assess the state of the parties in these last few months before the General Election. Without wanting to be too political all I would say is that my own Conservative Party showed themselves well aware of the magnitude of the financial mountain to be climbed and set out a clear path towards restoring...

Some years ago I bought a copy of David Bebbington’s Evangelicalism in Modern Britain (pub Routledge 1989). Bebbington’s book can hardly be described as a page turner, however, it has become a major text in terms of understanding Evangelicalism in an historical context. In the Church of Scotland, and I’m sure other denominations, Evangelical is a slippery term which seems difficult...

The royal pardon given to Michael Shields, the Liverpool football fan convicted of attacking a barman in Bulgaria, has been angrily condemned by a senior Bulgarian politician. Shields, 22, from Liverpool, was pardoned by the justice secretary, Jack Straw, on Wednesday after a lengthy campaign. Bar worker Martin Georgiev, a father of two, suffered a fractured skull when a paving stone was dropped on...

At lunchtime today I attended the official opening of Mersey Ferries, Terminal at the Pier Head. The opening paid tribute to John Newton, a former slave trader who witnessed the horrors of the trade and who in 1748 had ‘A spritual conversion’ and some time later helped Wilberforce to stop this horrendous human trafficking. The Bishop of Liverpool, Bishop [...]
