GOOD NEWS FROM THE HUMBLE ABODE OF MADPRIEST

Literally at MadPriest's house...comes a visit by the new bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Durham, Justin Welby. And the visit goes beautifully. Do read MadPriest's account. MadPriest says, 'I even feel just a little bit excited.' It's a story that warms my heart. Maybe I'm over-excited, but what keeps coming to mind is, 'Miracles do happen!' Of course I could be wrong...

(I have a very nice photo of the real MadPriest which I would love to use for this post, but he would kill me if I did, and I'm not quite ready to die.)

    I don't know anything about Bp. Welby, but I hope he is one of the newer brand of evangelicals who've returned to their roots of speaking truth to power, among other things. The current US phenomenon of Republigelicals can't fade and be replaced by a new vision fast enough.

    Bex, from what I read, certain of the younger evangelicals take a different direction from the older generations of evangelicals. For instance, a good many of them are not anti-LGTB. I believe there is cause for hope.
