Brilliant news today of the appointment of Bishop Sarah Mullally as Archbishop of Canterbury! Was privileged to meet her in 2018. She will be a fearless leader for our time.

Excellent analysis of this ridiculous bill
NZ First wants to copy the UK in defining ‘woman’. It makes no legal or human sense

Appalling that TVNZ gives Tamaki a platform to spread his ugly message of hate. This is not “free speech”.
“After Tamaki's people assaulted staff at an educational event for children, and terrorised parents and kids, NZ Herald interviewed Tamaki for his 'version of events' while Stuff edited out the worst”

Write to your MP, the Police Minister, the PM.

This is the second Destiny church story today filled with violence and in which Tamaki gets several paragraphs to spout his venom.

One of the questions a bishop in the Episcopal Church is asked at their ordination is:
Q: Will you boldly proclaim and interpret the Gospel of Christ, enlightening the minds and stirring up the conscience of your people?
A: I will, in the power of the Spirit.
And she did.
God bless & protect her.

Outstanding leadership from Bishop Budde today
Speaking from a pulpit where Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. once preached, Rev. Mariann Budde, the Episcopal bishop of Washington, delivered a bold sermon this morning at a national prayer service at the National Cathedral in Washington, D.C.

Brilliant
Speaking truth to power (and not grovelling like certain other religious “leaders”).
Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde to Trump: "I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender people in Democratic, Republican, and independent families, some who fear for their lives ... and the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals"

Extraordinary speech! Could not be worse. Note the Bishop of London next to Welby wishing she was anywhere but there.

The archbishop of Banterbury could have used his speech to express remorse to victims of abuse. But then there wouldn’t have been any room for lolz
