Has Justin Welby met his match in Sandi Toksvig? The entertainer has sent an open letter to the Archbishop of Canterbury, complaining about his attempts to compromise with African bishops and avoid a showdown at the Lambeth Conference on the issue of same-sex marriage.

The Archbishop of Canterbury has told a gathering of bishops that church members have “disagreed without hatred” this week over same-sex marriage decisions. It comes after the archbishop reaffirmed a 1998 Anglican declaration rejecting same-sex marriage, sparking a controversy over the church’s relationships with the LGBTQ+ community.

Conservatism has an inherent respect for institutions; a biblically infused respect for authorities (Rom 13:1-5) and historically for the monarchy. As Burke said, “We fear God, we look up with awe to kings; with affection to parliaments; with duty to magistrates.” Conservatives should be big on the value of trust. As we know from the very beginning, we are designed and called to be good stewards (Gen 1:26-31), holding all creation in trust from God under ordained authorities. Indeed marriage and the family (Gen 2:24, Heb 13:4, Eph 5:25) is the key institution at the heart of Conservatism, supporting values of trust, sacrifice and service within and between generations.

The Great Reset has long been associated with unprovable conspiracy theories about a globalist takeover of world economic and political systems. However, recent developments on the world stage have lent some credence to at least some of the theories. Advocates for the Great Reset are quite vocal about their plans, and they use that term.

In June 2020, the World Economic Forum (WEF) held their fiftieth annual conference in Davos, Switzerland. The theme of the conference was “Stakeholders for a Cohesive and Sustainable World,” and the purported goal was “to overcome income inequality, societal division and the climate crisis” (from the official WEF website). Significantly, the Davos 2020 Conference used the term The Great Reset and launched what they call “The Great Reset Initiative.” Is this the start of the End Times?

The rescue of animals by Paul "Pen" Farthing has garnered criticism in that he brought animals out of #Afghanistan from Kabul airport whilst many humans were left stranded. Note that #PenFarthing himself has never said the cats and dogs were a priority over humans. All he did was try to save some animals from the consequences of human behaviour. Here is my take on it.My blog: https://www.petertimothycooper.co.uk/Subscribe: https://www.youtube.com/thevirtualvicar...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UHZk7NJuqvA

We can go astray. We have free will to go the wrong way. If we want. But once we realize that we need to turn back and go in God's direction, go in the way that he leads, once we realize that the way to do it, the way to not be weighed down by guilt and shame. The way to have the depression and apathy lift so that we can get going in God's direction is to do this, to consciously give these transgressions, to hand them over to God, to hand them over to Jesus who has borne our infirmities And he carries them away.thevirtualvicar.com...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mCMYQMKXwuI

If you’ve tried to buy a bike over the past few months you’ll know that demand is far outstripping supply thanks to the effects of government imposed lockdowns because of the mild flu-like COVID-19 epidemic. What about you, are you going to get on your bike? We’ve been speaking to members of the British bike trade to find out what’s going on, how long this situation is likely to last, and how you can maximise your chances of getting the bike you’re after. UK bike shops began running out of stock way back at the start of the first lockdown over a year ago. Lockdown restrictions were announced towards the end of March 2020 and the bike trade saw an immediate uplift in sales as a result of cycling being a permitted exercise option, people wanting to stay off public transport, and furloughed workers having a lot of free time on their hands. Cycle shops were classed as ‘essential' and have therefore been allowed to stay open throughout....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQ3DcbPUnJs

An episode of the Good Conversation podcast. In these times of a pandemic and lockdowns it is easy to be anxious. What are the reasons behind this? How should Christians respond? Kerri and Pete, Christian Bloggers, look at why this should be in the light of Government messaging and the Coronavirus pandemic. Isolation is not natural for human beings - we are not designed for it. In times of crisis, such as we are experiencing with Covid-19, our instinct is to group together. Yet here we are, millions of us, isolating ourselves even from close family members to prevent the spread of the disease, while at the same time being bombarded with horrifying headlines. So it’s no surprise that many people are feeling anxious and fearful....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7pYdb4nXWA4

Easter is about new starts, new life, new birth. This is often symbolised with images of eggs and chicks. We give and receive Easter eggs and maybe cards with pictures of spring sunshine or newborn chicks. All these are symbols of the season of spring and of a new, start a new beginning. We think about new life at Easter is because Jesus, who was crucified on that first Good Friday, rose to new life on the first Easter Sunday. This is not just a wonderful story, it’s an historical fact. Jesus’ body was never found and his resurrection never disproved. This was despite the best efforts of the mighty Roman Empire and the committed and powerful Jewish leaders to destroy the early church and discredit their belief. The early disciples were changed from a frightened and disillusioned group to men who stood up against the authorities and eventually gave their lives for what they believed – for what they knew to be true – that Jesus came back to life on Easter Sunday. New life for Jesus leading to new life in his disciples. The impacts of what happened that first Easter are still relevant today. When Jesus died and rose, he did it for us. He offers us new life, eternal life, with him; life that starts now, but continues beyond this life. Now that is worth celebrating...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39LAL7VhjaI

There's an old Yiddish witticism "To make God laugh, tell him your plans." Perhaps we’re accustomed to thinking of Jesus only as “a man of sorrows, acquainted with grief” (Isa 53:3). His crucifixion is certainly no laughing matter. Or maybe the image of a laughing Jesus offends simply because it makes him too human. Yet Hebrews 4:15 tells us that Jesus is able to sympathize with us because he is exactly like us (minus the sinning). God has gifted us with a sense of humour; it stands to reason that Jesus had one, too. Mark and Pete look at the Bible and find plenty of laughs. And as Christians we also find lots to laugh about within Christianity today. What about religion makes you laugh?...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCp82L7GYhw

Since 1984 the River Mersey on the banks of Liverpool has been a safer place thanks to a professional rescue service that patrols the waters 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. The Mersey Inshore Rescue team is the only full time unit working in the UK, not even the Thames has such a service.Established in 1984 their principal reason for being is to be able to respond to an air disaster at Liverpool Airport. The main runway of the airport points towards the river and the local emergency planning authorities have long considered the possibility of an airliner having to ditch into the water. Their base, at Liverpool's pier head, is some 8 miles down river from the airport and the crew must be able to respond to a crash scene from anywhere within 14 minutes.

Thankfulness is a way of life that can have a great positive impact on you. Let’s take a good look at how thankfulness works. Thankfulness is directed at God through Christ Jesus.So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live your lives in him, rooted and built up in him, strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness. Colossians 2:6-7Thankfulness works in three different ways. First, it works on you and your general attitude. Second, it works on those around you. Lastly, it has a way of influencing your environment. How exactly Thankfulness works on these things is, open for debate, though. You will feel how powerful thankfulness is. Once you start to implement thankfulness in your life, you will start to see it work for you. Thankfulness has a way of changing your whole view on life. You will start to find the good in things and that will make you happy. You will be less likely to feel down and instead you will allow thankfulness to guide you to happy, positive thoughts. You will start to do everything in a more assured, generous and sure-footed way, including how you treat others. This will not go unnoticed. Your interaction with others plays a large part in your life. Other people are going to be greatly influenced by your thankfulness. You will start to see this because they are going to start treating you differently. Others will sense your thankful attitude and they will treat you in a Thankful way. Someone who is often rude or just inattentive to you will likely start to treat you in a nice way or pay more attention to you. You will start to find that people are more likely to offer you help when you need it. They will likely do nice things, such as hold doors open or just give you a smile. Your Thankful attitude may even be contagious. You may start to see people you spend a lot of time with exhibiting the same thankful attitude that you have.Thankfulness has a way of even influencing your environment, but it may not be in the way you think. Just because you think thankfully does not mean that everything will automatically go your way. However, when you think thankfully you will be less likely to see the negative in things and therefore your environment will appear to change. You will probably start to notice the little things more than ever before and that will have a nice effect on you. Thankfulness will allow you to believe in yourself. It will allow you to believe that you can accomplish something if you put your mind to it. You will be able to set goals and reach them because you will believe that you can do it. You will not have negative thoughts to hold you back. Thankfulness is very influential. It is going to start to shape everyone and everything around you.

Epidemics or pandemics such as the Spanish flu or swine flu provide us with important lessons: history has a habit of repeating itself. There will be less demand for high-rise living because people are so troubled by higher densities and sharing lifts and other communal facilities. There will be less demand for high-rise living because people are so troubled by higher densities and sharing lifts and other communal facilities. Life will not be business as usual post-COVID. Is this a generational catastrophe? We will learn from this pandemic and we will create a new normal. We will need to make cities and country towns more resilient in the future. As an urban and regional planner and former chief commissioner of the Victorian Building Authority, I am certain there needs to be change in the way in which our cities and country areas function and how we can properly plan to build resilience in our communities. That will mean different things will happen to make our cities and towns great places to live, work and play; social distancing will remain a practice and we will notice people (including children) will have a heightened awareness of personal hygiene.

In short, beautiful people are more confident, have more social skills and are seen as more able by employers, which translates to higher wages.

The 4 Horsemen of the Apocalypse are on the way, it seems. What does it all mean? In this video on the book of Revelation I draw on other Biblical passages to answer that question as it relates to the rider on the white horse on of the The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. Controversy exists over the identity of the first horseman, who rides a white horse. Some say that the rider represents Jesus Christ preaching the Gospel, others believe that the first horseman represents the antichrist, who will oppose Christ at His return. Greg Laurie's recent sermon gives a popular view of the identity of the first horseman. Who is he? When will the apocalypse be. What did Jesus say about all this? The answers I give may surprise you.

The number of the beast is 666, six hundred and sixty six. But what does this mean. And who is this diabolical creature? What is the name of the beast. I believe that that there is a very specific and definitive answer, what do you think? Is it a contemporary of John, the author of Revelation, or someone from today? This is based on Revelation 13:18 (quotation from the Bible, English Standard Version): "This calls for wisdom: let the one who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a man, and his number is 666."I am grateful to the work of the scholar Kenneth Gentry on this topic, especially on the dating of Revelation.

Here is my segment of the #Christmas episode of TGIF on the Wallasey Unleashed channel - see the full episode and subscribe here: hhttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLy-iMASe91bbJReLRyVfHg. It tried to be cynical but it didn't work out. This is the work of Samuel Clements Moore. The poem, which has been called "arguably the best-known verses ever written by an American", is largely responsible for some of the conceptions of Santa Claus from the mid-nineteenth century to today. Prior to the poem, American ideas about St. Nicholas and other Christmastide visitors varied considerably.On Christmas Eve night, while his wife and children sleep, a man awakens to noises outside his house. Looking out the window, he sees St. Nicholas in an air-borne sleigh pulled by eight reindeer. After landing his sleigh on the roof, the saint enters the house through the chimney, carrying a sack of toys with him. The man watches Nicholas filling the children's Christmas stockings hanging by the fire, and laughs to himself. They share a conspiratorial moment before the saint bounds up the chimney again. As he flies away, Saint Nicholas wishes everyone a "Happy Christmas to all, and to all a good night."Clement Clarke Moore ( 1779 – 1863) was an American Professor of Oriental and Greek Literature, as well as Divinity and Biblical Learning, at the General Theological Seminary of the Protestant Episcopal Church. Located on land donated by the "Bard of Chelsea" himself, the seminary still stands today on Ninth Avenue between 20th and 21st Streets, in an area known as Chelsea Square. Moore's connection with that institution continued for over twenty-five years. He is the author of the yuletide poem "A Visit from St. Nicholas", which later became famous as "'Twas the Night Before Christmas"....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=azPXxmB4nKI

Pete is joined by Dr. Maggie Cooper this week for the conversation. The question of God's relation to time has generated a great amount of theological and philosophical reflection. The traditional view has been that God is timeless in the sense of being outside time altogether; that is, he exists but does not exist at any point in time and he does not experience temporal succession. But does this make sense? Is this view in fact morally repugnant?Source:https://www.spreaker.com/user/withpetercooper/time-02-06-2020-17-35...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=97ilkX9pigs

A few musings on how UFO's keep cropping up in the area in which I live. On the morning of Tuesday 3 May 1977 at around 1am, what must surely rank as the largest UFO ever reported was allegedly seen over Wirral.A cabby working for CC Taxis was parked up on Wallasey’s Penkett Road, waiting for a woman to pay her fare. The moon was full and Penkett Road was bathed in its silvery light. A shadow fell across the neighbourhood and the cabby looked up to see an immense black disc-shaped object blotting out the moon as it slowly moved east towards the river. The woman the cabby had been waiting for came out of her house to pay her fare and also saw the gigantic object overhead. A man walking his dog on nearby Caithness Drive saw the gigantic UFO and at the exact same time on the other side of Wirral, a young courting couple who had been sitting in a parked car on Caldy Road also witnessed the eclipse of the full moon by the UFO. As more and more sightings of the giant in the sky came in, it was established that the craft must have been around ten miles in diameter. It was seen by people in Liverpool, Chester, Flint and Ellesmere Port. What are we to make of this?This video is also part of the show TGIF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DLI6W16AHZg&t=1s...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=--QvzPshPAE

The women in the Bible are rarely mentioned by name, with named women representing only 5.5 to 8 percent of the total of all named characters, male and female. This suggests that women were not usually in the forefront of public life. Those women that are named, rose to prominence for reasons outside the ordinary. They are often an aspect of the over-turning of man-made power structures and the women are often heroic or at the heart of an important doctrine. Does God really sideline women?

For those of us who grow up within Christianity, one of the first things we’re taught about God is that God never changes; God is the same yesterday as God is today or as God will be tomorrow. Unfortunately, this attribute of God has been historically misunderstood, both to the detriment of ourselves and in the way we see God. Where we get into trouble is not in confessing that God never changes, but when we assume that God never changes his mind. This is dangerous thinking: here Maggie and Pete thrash out the implications.

This video is the first of three featured in a recent episode of TGIF, link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aviKAZmPbtk&t=2099shttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aviKAZmPbtk&t=2099s.There are multiple reasons why people have gained weight during the lockdown. One reason is simply because it has been a sedentary time, without much movement. If you have been always on your feet and suddenly found yourself sitting at home all the time, you may have piled on some extra weight. The second reason for weight gain is stress. The lockdown has been a stressful time for many people. Stress is linked to higher inflammation in the body and weight gain. In my case, adding extra pounds was mainly because I have had no access to many groceries. Since I had to rely on rice and local vegetables, and not as many proteins as I would have liked, there has been some weight gain. Whatever the reason, this is a time to take a breath and pause. Pets and humans need a healthy diet....https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=37f-o79WETU

America was ready to explode even before George Floyd was killed by the Minneapolis police. The twin tragedies of 40 million people — one-quarter of the US workforce — losing their jobs and 100,000 people losing their lives during the coronavirus pandemic had turned the US into an emotional tinderbox that was waiting for a spark to set it off.Mark and Pete episode from which this poem is taken on the way forward for a divided America: https://www.spreaker.com/user/withpetercooper/i-cant-breathe-for-spreakerFull text of poem:The United Traits of AmericaA nation that unites where the law is abided,Always delights if great protection is provided,Until one act incites while minorities are derided,Social media recites as ignorance presided.But when hate ignites and colour has collided,And blacks and whites are so sadly divided,Then civil rights and justice are just one-sided,It simply highlights that a country is misguided.[A satirical poem by Mark and Pete]...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=omFiCtEN4rI

Maggie and Pete discuss why we need to get up and go on world mission. We need to reach out the world in evangelistic mission because God has promised to bless all nations (or people groups) on the earth. What better motivation and encouragement can we have than the understanding that missions (blessing the nations with the Gospel) is in the sure purposes of God. Because Jesus has already purchased people from every tribe and nation with His blood. Like the Moravians motivated by this purchase we should repeat what two Moravians missionaries said as they set sail for India, “May the Lamb receive the reward of His suffering!” In other words, He has already purchased them, our job is only to gather in what is His.

We look at John chapter 3 and its enduring importance in bringing people out of a path to destruction into ultimate salvation. “If we were asked to read to a dying man who did not know the gospel, we should probably select this chapter as the most suitable one for such an occasion; and what is good for dying men is good for us all, for that is what we are; and how soon we may be actually at the gates of death, none of us can tell.” (Spurgeon)

Reading the Bible is much easier if you follow some simple steps and get prepared. And, as you delve into it, you might find that you are more familiar with the Bible than you expected: it crops up in everything from Shakespeare to Hollywood movies; it’s inspired musicians, historical figures and campaigners. The Bible is complex. It’s not one book but a collection of 66 books, split into two sections: the Old Testament and the New Testament. All of the books are divided into chapters and verses. People often find it easier to begin at the opening of the New Testament, which starts about three-quarters of the way through. Maggie and Pete give their tips. Here's a link to the book mentioned: https://amzn.to/38bPH4K

The women in the Bible are rarely mentioned by name, with named women representing only 5.5 to 8 percent of the total of all named characters, male and female. This suggests that women were not usually in the forefront of public life. Those women that are named, rose to prominence for reasons outside the ordinary. They are often an aspect of the over-turning of man-made power structures and the women are often heroic or at the heart of an important doctrine. Does God really sideline women? What does the Bible say? Peter and Maggie discuss this important issue for contemporary Christian thought.

For those of us who grow up within Christianity, one of the first things we’re taught about God is that God never changes; God is the same yesterday as God is today or as God will be tomorrow. Unfortunately, this attribute of God has been historically misunderstood, both to the detriment of ourselves and in the way we see God. Where we get into trouble is not in confessing that God never changes, but when we assume that God never changes his mind. This is dangerous thinking: here Maggie and Pete thrash out the implications. What do you think?

God does exist but how do you know that. Steve, Shereen, Maggie and your humble host Peter put forwards the reasons why they personally believe in God. We all know and believe many things about ourselves, our world, and the people around us. Many of these things can’t be “demonstrated by logical, controlled, and repeatable methods.” You can know, f that your mother loves you and that a particular Beethoven symphony lifts your spirits: is that similar to how we know that God exists? Or it all more scientific than that? what do you think?

Pete is joined by Dr. Maggie Cooper this week for the conversation. The question of God's relation to time has generated a great amount of theological and philosophical reflection. The traditional view has been that God is timeless in the sense of being outside time altogether; that is, he exists but does not exist at any point in time and he does not experience temporal succession. But does this make sense? Is this view in fact morally repugnant?

ll 118 of the Church of England’s bishops and archbishops have issued a rare joint rebuke of MPs for language “not worthy of our country”.

The College of Bishops say in a joint statement today: “In the last few days, the use of language, both in debates and outside parliament, has been unacceptable. We should speak to others with respect . . . We should not denigrate, patronise or ignore the honest views of fellow citizens, but seek to respect their opinions, their participation in society, and their votes.” Are they completely out of touch?

The UK's highest court has ruled that Boris Johnson broke the law when he advised the Queen to suspend parliament in a bombshell unanimous judgement. The court ruled that it was "unlawful, void and of no effect". Supreme Court President Lady Hale said the prorogation was "void and of no effect", adding: "Parliament has not been prorogued." Does this mean that the Queen no longer has the right to prorogue parliament unless the courts say so. What a mess! Pete is worried about the constitutional crisis.

Commons Speaker John Bercow said the House must "convene without delay" and that he would be consulting party leaders "as a matter of urgency".

Nayib Bukele was elected president of El Salvador this past February. At the age of 37, he is the youngest president ever elected in El Salvador, and the youngest president in Central America. He has little political experience prior to this election, having only served briefly as a mayor. He is a successful businessman who had no ultimate desire to run for president.

Yesterday in El Salvador, President Bukele addressed a conference of pastors, businessmen and businesswomen, and local leaders. The day before, U.S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo visited the presidential palace. He and Bukele announced joint efforts between the United States and El Salvador to confront drug trafficking, reduce pressures on immigration and pursue joint economic development.

At today's conference, instead of highlighting the successful state visit, Bukele delivered a personal testimony on his feelings about government. He told the story about being of Palestinian heritage and finding purpose in Christianity. He was a successful businessman by the age of 29, making more money than he ever dreamed. He had no desire to be a politician. He served as mayor to give back to his community as many self-sacrificing people do. Service on city councils, school boards and city task forces are often thankless jobs.

Last year, Bukele was approached by a group of pastors who told him they had received a spiritual message that he should run for president. His response was as you might expect: "No way; you've got to be kidding." Later, another group approached him with the same prophecy. He thought it odd, but this time took note. As the deadline for making a decision about running for president neared, he was approached a third time. These pastors were certain they were correct in their message to him. They asked him to prayerfully consider a run. When they pressed him for an answer, they told him they would respectfully accept his decision. He again told them no.

Bukele struggled with his final decision. Soon thereafter, another pastor whom he did not know advised him not to "fall into the fourth place." When asked to expand on what he meant, the pastor said it was missing God's call on your life. Bukele then decided to reconsider and filed for the office of presidency.

In the opening days of the campaign, Bukele fell into disagreement with his political party. They threatened to kick him out of the party, which would eliminate his position on the ballot. He stood his ground, and the party expelled him. In his testimony to the audience, he said he asked God: "Why would You lead me to this point if You wanted me to run? Why did You allow this to happen?" He paused and then referenced the fact that God did not answer him.

As was the normal in this scenario, a stranger turned up at the campaign headquarters and explained that Bukele could still get on the ballot with 50,000 citizens' signatures on a petition. He had no idea how to obtain them. The stranger said, "We'll take care of it." Forty-eight hours later, 200,000 people had signed a petition for his candidacy. When advised of this, the campaign manager thought they had said 20,000 because even that seemed like an unrealistic number.

Bukele won the general election with 53% of the vote, trouncing all party candidates at one time. No individual had won the presidency in that country since 1972 without a major party endorsement. On the night of the election, he was still surprised at the results. In discussions with his spiritual leaders, he was asked, what makes you think God needs a political party?

Since his election, Bukele has instituted more reforms than all presidents of the previous 49 years combined. For instance, he swept all prisons of cell phones so inmates could not direct illegal activity outside of the prison walls. Funny, no one ever thought of that before. before!

After his speech today, Bukele attended lunch with a smaller group of us. He told us that he had no prepared remarks for the morning speech. He walked to the stage intent on speaking from his heart to simply give his personal testimony. He was most grateful for God's faithfulness. A few of us had an opportunity to address him directly. It was clear that the way he receives information and decides how to act upon it is based upon an analysis of whether or not such action will help the families of El Salvador. In his general address, he said through all this he finally came to the conclusion that, when God continues to give you the picture so many times, and always shows up in support of the vision, that maybe it is time to start believing Him.

What a mess. Theresa May called a snap election in the hopes of getting a bigger majority for the Conservatives but lost the majority altogether. Corbyn and the Labour Party gained seats but not enough to secure a majority. The UK General Election is over, but it isn't because we still don't know who will be Prime Minister for the next few years. What of the Northern Irish support will that help May, or is she finished?

Theresa May (Conservative) called an election in the UK to the surprise of many including your friendly neighbourhood political analysts Mark and Pete. At that point she was streets ahead in the polls but her rival Jeremy Corbyn (Labour) is catching fast. Here on the Mark and Pete show we are a little dismayed as we don't like either candidate particularly. We look at the strengths and weaknesses of each candidate. And give our prediction of who will win - and our predictions are always right (disclaimer: except when they are wrong).
