How does God ask us to have faith in the world? What is the nature of faith? Why is God so obsessed with us having faith anyway? The Rev'd Jamie Franklin attempts to give some coherent thoughts on these matters from Mark 6:1-6.

Are you one of those people who is withdrawing into themselves as a consequence of lockdowns?  Perhaps you also fear speaking out because of political correctness? Maybe you no longer watch the news or even see the movies because you are tired of political subtext. So you withdraw.  God can fill the  'monastery of the mind' with light. Rev Daniel looks at the burning bush story Rev Daniel French for inspiration.

Based on 2 Corinthians 4.13- 5.1 "We look not at what can be seen but at what cannot be seen; for what can be seen is temporary, but what cannot be seen is eternal."   As a new and timely book Laura Dobsworth's gripping 'A State of Fear' shows how we have become since Covid the plaything of government behavioural scientists.  They have been instrumental in scaring the life out of us. Our counter-op must be to find inner freedom, to pierce the cloudbase and see that there is but light and glory.  The clip I mention from the Matrix Trilogy is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR7fPyRT5Ck

Scripture - Acts 2.1-4   Rev Daniel French explores the shallowness and dangers of imagining that we can negotiate religious altered states and spiritual gifts without God - as if Pentecost could be delivered in a pill form.  He argues instead for a deeper understanding of Christian religious experiences that involves not only the delightful but also the wounds of Christ and the suffering of the world. 

Christ's ascension is real. It teaches us that Jesus is the Way, the Great High Priest and the King of Kings. And it accomplishes in us faith, hope and love.
