Been on @virginmedia for less than a month. It took a week to sort out my connection (one day a bloke turned up, had a look and cleared off!) and two separate outages that lasted all night. I’m sure they’ll be in touch with a refund for LoS. #unlikely
Excited for this to be released soon with a chapter from me and @hodgehillvicar
It's #ResearchFriday !
Exciting news about a forthcoming @SCM_Press book featuring chapters by Prof @hannahbacon_h on #BodyImage and #DProf student Simon Sutcliff @UrbanFriar on #Masculinity
Here's the link for Feminist Theologies: A Companion

I was involved in this super podcast recently with @DrClaretheology talking about theological education. Have a listen.

I noticed in the Wild Blue Yonder episode that the Doctor uses ‘creation’ language, which presumes a creator. Is this language normally used by Russell T Davies? Or is this part of a story arc? #DrWho #WildBlueYonder
Today the Methodist Church just keeps on giving.
A prayer from the Vice-President of Conference 🙏
Loving God,
You created all people, of all genders, in your image,
each of us worthy of equal value and dignity.
We give thanks for our transgender siblings,
And for how their gifts and skills enrich us as a Church.
We know your desire is for the flourishing of your whole creation,
and that you call us to seek justice and transformation where that is denied.
Enable us as allies to stand in solidarity and support,
To listen with openness, humility and respect,
To speak out when we encounter transphobia and discrimination
To love and affirm one another as precious in your sight.
Amen.
I gave my life to the Methodist Church 20 years ago. Today I couldn’t be prouder!
I’m hoping that @MethodistGB is backing @KRutlidge - I know I am.

This week has been one of those rare seasons of affirmation. I’m thankful for friends and colleagues who are willing to play with the crazy ideas in my head and make them more. Im daring to believe I might be on to something. #ChthonicTheology
Really good review here of @NormanWirzba ‘s ‘This Sacred Life’. I think @hodgehillvicar @Stphotina @RWileECoyote @RachelParkinso2 might be interested in this.

Back home from #MethodistConf. Genuinely humbled by the generous way in which folk responded to the idea of earthed wisdom. Plot 13 is also filled with joy and hope that Mycelial-Methodists might make the world a safer place for the more-than-human. Thank you all!
On my way to #MethodistConf to share some mycelial thinking in the Bible study. A real privilege. Not sure I’ll maintain the brilliance of Gail and @AliP_LA1 or Carlton and @hodgehillvicar, but I’m looking forward to it!
Absolutely storming powerful reflections from @AliP_LA1 and Gail. #methodistconf
‘Treasure seekers’ and ‘Midwives’ - great theological metaphors from the President for us all to work with over the coming year. #methodistconf
I’ve done it - if you consider yourself a Practical Theologian, please do fill it in!
I'm conducting a quick survey of Practical Theologians for a short paper at our BIAPT conference next month. Please take a moment to complete it here: forms.gle/7fTwZLEkC2YLDbWu7……Do RT and share it with your PT networks. Thanks!
So heading to #MethodistConf tomorrow for the opening and wondering if I should wear dog collar, or an open neck shirt, or one of the Methodist t-shirts I’ve acquired over the years - or maybe the plastic diagonal poncho?
Great day spending time with Methodist doctoral students. Really helpful conversations led by @Helen4voices looking at where our research is located in both the academy and the church. Thank you @jon__dean and @NPriceTebbutt.
