Digging deep to spread the Gospel
The Bishop of Sherwood takes spreading the word of God to new heights - and depths.
Last year, Right Reverend Tony Porter flew 150 miles from Nottingham to Northumberland in a light aircraft to promote church to the masses.
This time, he has gone underground to take the message of faith to miners.
"They're underground but not invisible," Bishop Porter told the BBC News website. "They deserve to know that God is interested in them."
The bishop took a trip down Welbeck Colliery in Nottinghamshire as part of Back to Church Sunday.
This is a nationwide effort to extend personal invitations to potential new worshippers - and in particular to those who once attended regularly but no longer do. The Bishop of Sherwood takes spreading the word of God to new heights - and depths. ... more -

Anglican conservatives form group, break links with liberal wings
Conservative Anglicans meeting in Jerusalem will create a global network to combat modern trends in the Church like the ordination of gay clergy.
The group has also decided to break its relationship with the liberal wings of the US and Canadian Churches.

Conservative Anglicans meeting in Jerusalem will create a global network to combat modern trends in the Church like the ordination of ... more -

Johnny Cash: "Hurt"
As this year ends I cannot help but think of those whose words and music influenced and filled my days. Johnny Cash is one of those people. I grew to love his music in the early seventies because my dad loved him. His music was not just considered "country", but music that appealed to those of us who knew what hard times were all about and those of us who rebelled against authority. He was a missive for the forgotten ones. He was indeed, "The Man In Black" and I treasured every moment I spent with my dad listening to his songs, that I now listen to with my own son. So in thinking about him and still to this day listening to his music that spanned generations and genres I am reminded of what he also suffered in his own life that made him stronger and the love he found with June Carter that led him to the words he sang that inspired me, and I miss him. As this year ends I cannot help but think of those whose words and music influenced and filled my days. Johnny Cash is one of those pe... more
