I have to go on being a priest and bishop, that is, to celebrate God and what God has done in Jesus, and to offer in God's name whatever I can discern of God's perspective on the world around - something which involves both challenge and comfort.

Even when I was Archbishop of Wales and working with new bishops, I used to say, not realising quite how true it was, 'One of the things you will do as a bishop is disappoint people'.

You should never view your challenges as a disadvantage.
Instead, it's important for you to understand that your experience facing and overcoming adversity is actually one of your biggest advantages.
