You remind me something of Chiara Lubich, the founder of Focolare.
In a Christmas poem she wrote:
Teach us, O Lord, how to preserve your presence among us.
It’s Christmas!
Let your love, set alight on earth, burn our hearts and let us love one another as you desire!
Then you will be there among us.
And every day, if we love one another, can be Christmas.
Chiara Lubich

THE MORNING SERMON SERIES IN FITZROY - SEPT/OCT 2019
I am excited to set off on a new sermon series that will theologically continue shape our identity in Fitzroy. I have been personally challenged to the core of my thinking on mission by the writings of Sam Wells. So I am now trying to apply it to Fitzroy’s pastoral care and mission. On Septe...
Wow Steve! It is so beautiful what you shared! If you'd been here, I'd have hugged you!I totally agree with you.

WHEN CHRISTIANITY ROBS US OF THE WONDER OF OUR HUMANITY - IT'S A SIN!
“My Christian journey almost robbed me of the wonder of my humanity.” The words of artist Colin Davidson to a class of Calvin College students meeting in Fitzroy, recently. Sadly, the words rang true, for me. I grew up in a Christian faith influenced by a narrow legalistic puritanism. It was ...
I loved it!

GRACE - OXYGEN OF ANOTHER WORLD BUT...
“Grace is the oxygen of another world and we like breathing our own.” I used this phrase as an illustration in a sermon a few years back. I think there is something in it. I thought it it was worth writing down and surmising a little further. Jesus truth was grace. God was interrupting the ...
For when I am weak, then I am strong (2 Cor 12:10). Thank you Steve!

STOCKI SURMISES THE LESSON LEARNED FROM A MOMENT WITH BRIAN KENNEDY
There are a few fleeting moments in life that linger with you and teach you lessons. I had one such with Brian Kennedy on a stage at the Greenbelt Festival. For a number of years I used to host the mainstage on the Friday of the festival and on this particular year Belfast’s Brian Kennedy was ...
Thank you Steve for having brought to light again such an example of a true Christian.

30 YEARS AGO... THE WORST 14 DAYS OF OUR TROUBLES... ONE MAN STARTED THE PEACE PROCESS
It is 30 years since one of Northern Ireland’s most tense and bloody fortnights. In March 1988 Belfast was on the very brink. Our ‘killing streets’ were even worse than usual. As it played out, one man quietly and humbly, followed Jesus into the middle of the violence, against all odds set i...
