Bishop of Hereford's Message


Bishop Richard's Weekly video Message - Transcript 08/09/2022

Hello everyone and welcome to this week’s video.  I think it quite likely preachers and congregations may be in a period of recovery after the lectionary readings from last Sunday. We had Jeremiah likening God to a potter shaping evil against the Israelites unless they changed their ways. Then we had Paul asking his friend Philemon to accept his runaway slave Onesimus back without much sign of calling the institution of slavery into question.  I’m recording this from a sweltering day just outside the chamber of General Synod. It ends tomorrow. Its been the usual mixture of the important and the banal. We’re all hugely proud of Emily (Synod’s youngest member) for a great speech in the debate about assisted dying. Others on the Hereford team have made great contributions both inside and outside the chamber.

Hello everyone and welcome to this week’s video.  Alison Walker, one of our curates currently serving in Much Wenlock, has just submitted her doctoral thesis and she let me read the final chapter the other day.  It contained a slant on the prayer of humble access, that I’ve never spotted before.
