@MadsDavies My own concern (and I’ve said this in House of Bishops) is that the complete lack of process that we now face will be far worse.

There is much to be said, in due course, about this betrayal. For now, one thing stands out. There is not a single mention of LGBTQIA people in this statement. This was supposed to be about us, with us, for us. It is none of those things. https://t.co/zfNtwN4Ry6

Progress, 'If it means that I need to sit outside with the powerless, the marginalised, the lost, then that’s where I will sit – and I am certain I will also encounter Christ there'. Bishop Sarah @bishopSarahM @churchofengland General @synod Synod 2023

I'm pleased to see the Church of England seriously considering the use of Coercive Prayer and naming it as such. https://t.co/aqcZMMw6DT

Happy Pride, Mancs!

Queer Christians still face imprisonment and death in both Christian and non-Christian majority cultures. We're standing up for the good of our siblings like we think Jesus would ask us to. Don't speak to us as if our service, sacrifices and suffering and deaths mean nothing

I grew up in a tradition that would put it this way. Now I'd say the bible contains writing from different perspectives, who don't always see things the same way. It's helpful to be aware of the different approaches when navigating diversity of practice in Christianity today

⛪️ I’m an Inclusive Evangelical Anglican priest seeking my next post in 6 months. Open to urban/suburban roles in churches that are open—or opening—to inclusion. Would love to plant, but we know the barriers. Know something? DM me. 🙏🏾 #Anglican #ChurchOfEngland #Retweet

I have this feeling that the actual outcome isn't what opponents of LGBTQ+ inclusion fear, it's the conversation itself. If we could all just be a little bit brave this process would be a lot less painful. However hard it is for you to talk about, the silence is a lot worse

"We never focused much on the chrism mass but when opt-in same sex blessings were introduced we decided we to do our own chrism to show that we object to a different type of service that nobody is forcing us to do anyway"

Adding 50 Swaddled hams to the list of things that can be blessed by the church with less controversy than faithful Queer Christians

Church Times is down. Nobody do anything newsworthy while we wait for it to come back. @ChurchTimes

The Morrison's flag is at half mast. #StormAshley

I don't want to alarm you @ScholarPriest, but I believe that chair may be an imposter

Could @MCRMetrolink put tram maps up at the station and make it clear where we need to wait for which trams? Even if you know your destination stop it's very difficult to figure out which tram to get on. The electronic signs can't be seen from a distance because of the rooves

Following the Synod vote, LLF will progress. It is grudging and slow, but it is some small nod to hope. I was very sorry not to be called to speak, but this is what I would have said.

'How Issues came to be used as a disciplinary document is a bit murky' @Rgt71Robert notes how Issues came to be disciplinary is unknown, was a mistake, & asks #synod 'Why aren’t we doing the work on homophobia?' #LLF #synod #GeneralSynod

We've had people ask us how they can be praying for the upcoming LLF debate in July's General Synod, so we've put some resources on the Together website: https://t.co/UaDIbSUsUv

A beautiful read on a difficult week for LGBTQ+ Christians in the UK
