Genuine question for @Peter_Fitz in a thoughtful and respectful SMH article on Bruce Baird’s funeral, commenting on his Christian faith there is this statement-  “a committed follower of Jesus in a completely non-ideological way,”. What does that actually mean?

Using Brittany Higgins to lead a fight against One Nation and Pauline Hanson is not smart politics. It plays to those on the Labour/Greens left and will only annoy everyone else. I doubt it will shift any voting intentions

Joining Ben McEachen on Hope 103.2 after 10.30 this morning to talk about the withdrawal of the Bible Society UK’s Quiet Revival research. What does that mean, is there a quiet revival or not? Listen in

SMH today "Meanwhile, at the UN in New York, Russia and China used their veto power to kill off a Security Council resolution aimed at reopening the Strait of Hormuz, which had been repeatedly watered down in the hope those two countries would abstain." Pointless organisation

This is why so many people around the globe can’t take the UN seriously, these appointments are viewed as a joke

Arch Canterbury installed, first announcement is that she will target misogyny. There seems to be many challengers for the Anglican Church in the UK, including falling attendance numbers. The fact that this is the first issue targeted says more about Anglicans than the key issues

Everything coming together for launch of True North - a series for men. DVDs ready and discussion guides. Yes - people still use DVDs!! Launch next Tues, on our Watch+ site next wk. Very excited to see this new series launched, it will be a positive impact in churches & for men

Flying out to Melbourne today, looking forward to joining the team at Berwick Church of Christ to speak at the 9.00 & 11.00am services. Introducing the Encounter series, hope to see you there

Will the board of the Adelaide writers festival also apologise to Friedman for cancelling him in 2025 & invite him back for 2027? Will all the writers pulling out due to the cancellation of Adele-Fattah now insist that Friedman be invited back? Consistency not their strength

Albanese rushing through hate speech legislation to stand against antisemitism. Meanwhile in Adelaide they cancel a writers festival because the govn suggested that someone who posted the meme below on 8/10 is not appropriate, not a free speech issue, it’s a safety issue.

Remarkable scenes in Iran, praying for an overthrow of this draconian regime and freedom for Iranians. The radical left, who have spent the last 2 yrs protesting for Gaza will make a supportive statement anytime now. Meanwhile in Adelaide….

These are the most superior and judgemental people around. She is doing her job, leave her alone. Seriously aggravating hearing this from supposedly civilised educated people

Tim Waltz today - “if you protest do so peacefully as you always do”, this is in Minneapolis which burned to the ground just a few years ago torched by protesters
