Quick summary: school RE teachers and university TRS departments need each other, they can work together with mutual respect for mutual benefit, and we have lots of examples (thanks to @kairosbutterfly @reonline_tweets) to show what that could look like.

We could get angry at Suella’s latest piece of performative, pandering cruelty or… instead: let’s promote the excellent work done by @Shelter, @centrepointuk, @PassageCharity and other fine charities actually trying to help homeless people, especially now, as winter approaches.
The British people are compassionate. We will always support those who are genuinely homeless. But we cannot allow our streets to be taken over by rows of tents occupied by people, many of them from abroad, living on the streets as a lifestyle choice. 1/4

Recently, Ridley Scott, when asked about historical inaccuracies in his films said: "How do you know, where you there? Napoleon had 400 books written about him. Maybe the first was the most accurate... there is a lot of speculation." A 🧵on how historians know what we know. 1/25

Al-Khazneh ("The Treasury") one of most elaborate temples in Petra, a city of Nabatean Kingdom inhabited by Arabs in ancient times. As with most of other buildings in this ancient town, including Monastery (Ad Deir), this structure was carved out of a sandstone rock face. Structure is believed to have been mausoleum of Nabatean King Aretas IV in 1st century AD. It is one of most popular tourist attractions in both Jordan and region. It became known as "Al-Khazneh", or The Treasury, in early 19th century by area's Bedouins as they had believed it contained treasures. Treasury has appeared in many Hollywood films, gaining particular fame after being featured in climactic scenes in 1989 film Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, in which its facade is represented as entrance to the final resting place of the Holy Grail. 📽️© @arkeolojievreni #archaeohistories

TEACHERS According to @artfund pupils from less privileged backgrounds are much less likely to visit museums. I first went to our museum on a school trip. Teachers have the power to open the cabinet of wonders so ... I'll buy #TeacherArtPasses. for 2 teachers who RT this.

Today I turn 27 YEARS OLD. Which means 11 YEARS AGO I was on Educating Yorkshire. I am so fortunate to live life sharing the power of teachers. I am proud to be someone who stammers, something one teacher helped me to accept in the classroom. Thank you to everyone for the continuous support #EducatingYorlshire #PowerOfTeaching #ThankYou

Very cool volume now out, including a chapter from me on Martin Luther’s theology of suffering
T&T Clark Handbook of Suffering and the Problem of Evil Matthias Grebe, Johannes Grössl @theolojoe The T&T Clark Handbook of Suffering and the Problem of #Evil provides an extensive exploration of the #theology of #theodicy, asking questions such as should all instances of suffering necessarily be understood as evil? Why would an omnipotent and benevolent #God allow or perpetrate evil? Is God unable or unwilling to reduce human and non-human suffering on Earth? Does humanity have the capacity to exercise a moral evaluation of God's motives and intentions? Conventional disciplinary boundaries have tended to separate theological approaches to these questions from philosophical ones. This volume aims to overcome these boundaries by including #biblical (Part I), historical (Part II), doctrinal (Part III), #philosophical (Part IV), and pastoral, interreligious perspectives and alternative intersections (Part V) on theodicy. Authors include thinkers from analytic and continental traditions, multiple #Christian denominations and other religions, and both established and younger scholars, providing a full variety of approaches. What unites the essays is an attempt to answer these questions from the perspective of biblical testimony, historical scholarship, modern theological and philosophical thinking about the concept of God, non-Christian religions, science and the arts. The result is a combination of in-depth analysis and breadth of scope, making this a benchmark work for further studies in the theology of #suffering and evil.

Boris, as he is known, has been reunited with his family! Turns out they own the local quad biking centre so hoping they’ll reward me with a go!
Unexpected detour en route to work this morning! This little fellow was merrily running down a 50MPH road, causing havoc. No one bothered to stop so now I am covered in mud and late for work!
