Worth listening to. For our democracies to function we need to learn to work together for the common good in our everyday rooted lives. Benedict can teach us a thing or two. We need to know our history- to know what we know and why. bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Great programme about destructive individualism- how we exchanged a vision of solidarity to one of meritocracy. The kindness of local communities gave way to a mechanistic state bureaucracy. Can the church help restore compassionate local relationships? bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m0…

Helpful article by @giles_fraser. We’d add that the purpose of “the parish” is the durable relationship between God and people and with place. When the church weakens its link with place, it breaks the covenant with the people. @msnorthcott @johnmilbank3 togetherforthecommongood.co.uk/wp-content/upl…

“People who have been neighbours for 15yrs are now having conversations and changing their impressions about each other. Making new friends and children getting to know their elderly neighbours.” @L30Community Suey Street Fitness l30communitycentre.co.uk/street-fitness…
"Rather than speaking with the voice of prophecy, ...rather than proclaiming the miracles and mysteries that they uniquely exist to proclaim, church leaders have opted to talk like middle managers." Tom Holland. Is he right? buff.ly/2VEP7qV
Church leaders should not be talking like middle managers in this time of crisis telegraph.co.uk/news/2020/05/0… via @telegraphnews
At their best, the people of the church are the living embodiment of love. But we are not 'service providers' and church buildings are more than 'assets'. Churches have a profound relationship with place and express the sacred within the civic ecology. togetherforthecommongood.co.uk/stories/imagin…

“In moving from host to neighbour, in recognising its own vulnerability and those of others, the people of the church can take a lead in extending the hand of friendship and building the common good between previously isolated or estranged interests.” buff.ly/2ZWWb5r
Looking beyond the pandemic “the church is called upon to uphold and defend fellow local institutions with whom it has built a relationship of trust – in defiance of capital recouping its losses and the state administering the debris.” buff.ly/2ZWWb5r
