Sacred Wells: December 2012
http://sacredwells.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
A place for conversation and refreshment. Saturday, 8 December 2012. Waiting - A Reflection. Advent shines with anticipation as amidst the gloom of short days and drab skies a day of glorious winter sunshine breaks through. A forerunner to the light breaking into darkness, absolution announced by gracious creation shattering a penitential season. Waiting, those whose hearts are breaking, relationships strained or shattered, left wondering what it was all about. Break into the waiting, Wonderful Counsellor.

A place for conversation and refreshment. Friday, 30 January 2015. Pause for Thought - Leadership, the power of words. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Thanks for visiting 'Sacred Wells'. Wells are places of refreshment and encounter - this blog is such a place. A space for murmurings and musings about all those things that help us to connect with our spiritual selves. What are the things that warm our hearts, take us beyond ourselves, inspire us, energise us? What makes people generous and courageous?

Sacred Wells: September 2011
http://sacredwells.blogspot.com/2011_09_01_archive.html
A place for conversation and refreshment. Monday, 12 September 2011. Matthew 18 a new perspective. The Government was under pressure from the media and the public to support those who had lost their shirts as a result of the actions of the institution. The institution pleaded with the Government to be let off and to continue, arguing that to be punished for its actions would be disastrous as its creditors would loose out and the world would come to an end. And the place of forgiveness in this story?

A place for conversation and refreshment. Friday, 9 January 2015. It's really difficult watching the news from Paris when yesterday a friend died in his early thirties because there was nothing more the doctors could do for him. There is more than enough pain in the world through the things human beings cannot control, it takes a diseased imagination to want to impose such agony. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Sacred Wells: July 2013
http://sacredwells.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
A place for conversation and refreshment. Sunday, 7 July 2013. A glimpse of glory. Reflecting on Ruth Gee's Presidential Address, I was reminded of this poem from 'The Weaver, The Word and Wisdom. It may be of help to those attending Conference who find London a challenging place to be! A Colour Catches My Eye. Lost in the hot crush of a heaving crowd,. I find myself frustrated by the tourist pace of casual, slow enquiry. I am in a hurry. I want to walk faster than this,. I have a train to catch. Thanks ...

Sacred Wells: June 2014
http://sacredwells.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html
A place for conversation and refreshment. Sunday, 8 June 2014. On Message or On Fire? The day of Pentecost is the 50. And last day of the Easter Season, it is a celebration both of resurrection and of the gift of the Holy Spirit to the world. Today is a day when we might look again at where our resurrection faith has taken us – we are reminded of the commissioning power of God’s Spirit that calls all Christians to a ministry of proclamation and prophecy. What had Jesus meant when he had said “. You will ...

Sacred Wells: October 2011
http://sacredwells.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
A place for conversation and refreshment. Friday, 28 October 2011. First day reports from those who have travelled tend to be rather similar - lots of references to queues, endless beaurocracy at airports and huge amounts of tiredness on behalf of the traveller - well, that's that bit covered! So, after I've spoken to Rob in an hour or so, I will refrain from 'Facetiming' for a couple of days - so I can be really here. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). What makes people generous and courageous? I hope you will...

Sacred Wells: November 2012
http://sacredwells.blogspot.com/2012_11_01_archive.html
A place for conversation and refreshment. Friday, 30 November 2012. A brief account of the life of my ancestor, Captain John Gravill. He commanded the Diana, the last whaling ship to sail from Hull. He died 99 years before my birth, bar one day. He was a member of the Wesleyan Methodist Church and some sources suggest was a lay preacher. 15,000 people attended his funeral. Tuesday, 27 November 2012. Reposted - a parable for the new Boss @ the Old Lady of Threadneedle Street. Matthew 18 a new perspective.
