Well done Church in Wales. There is rarely a kind or positive word said about trans people at the moment. The dignity of trans people is not in opposition to women's rights. St John's affirms its commitment to trans and to non-trans people. Explicitly, trans and cis people are welcome at St John's

Our assurance as Christians is that nothing, not even death, shall separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.

Here at the faith tent for Cardiff Pride. Hopefully we can open our arms as wide as Christ today to those who have been hurt in His name

Bless the Lord!

Blessed Pride & Month of the Sacred Heart. Lord, LGBT+ people are always thirsty for You and we cry out to You, keep us in Your heart as You always have and always will, and set our own hearts aflame with love for You. For the vulnerable, help them remember they are fearfully and wonderfully made

“Very truly, I tell you, unless you eat the flesh of the Son of Man and drink his blood, you have no life in you. Those who eat my flesh and drink my blood have eternal life, and I will raise them up on the last day; for my flesh is true food and my blood is true drink.” #CorpusChristi

Christ in Paris

The Blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, which was shed for thee, preserve thy body and soul unto everlasting life.

If you’re in Cardiff for Pride weekend and need an inclusive place to encounter God and partake of His body and blood, come along!

I know my wickedness only too well.

God bless my church

I have set God always before me: for he is on my right hand, therefore I shall not fall. (Psalm 16:9)

"Hasten to me, O God! You are my help and my deliverer; O Lord, do not delay!" - Psalm 70:5

Jesus Christ, Lord have mercy on us, what is our government doing to us

"Whoever, then, thinks that he understands the Holy Scriptures, or any part of them, but puts such an interpretation upon them as does not tend to build up this twofold love of God and our neighbour, does not yet understand them as he ought." - Saint Augustine (On Christian Doctrine) 🕯

Blessed Ascension Day. Remember, angels turned to the men and asked, 'why do you stand looking up toward heaven?' It's not enough to wait idly for Him; it's our duty to actually do the work Christ asked of us: heal the sick, free the prisoner, feed the hungry, whereby we bring about the Kingdom

A beginner's guide to Evening Prayer--

Final Wales Election result is sensational. Labour and Conservatives only have 16/96 seats between them! Plaid Cymru 43 Reform UK 34 Labour 9 Conservative 7 Green 2 Liberal Democrat 1 Plaid should have no difficulty forming a minority government.

Happy 100th birthday, Sir David Attenborough. Thank you for helping us to see the wonder of creation, and the responsibility we share to protect it. Many blessings and prayers on this special day.

How it feels voting today

Without my formation in Anglicanism and my theological education, verses like this would have been inexplicable and boring. But now they come alive in the best way. They are expressions of longing, hope, and restoration in a sinful and broken world.

Today, we thank God for St. Athanasius, highly venerated across Christian traditions, Patriarch of Alexandria and Church Father, aiding in the discernment of Trinitarian theology against the Arianism heresy. Lord, grant us the same deep devotion to discerning Your nature and our place serving You

🧵 I know I'm late, but for those who don't know, this excerpt is from the manifesto of Cole Allen, the individual involved in the recent assassination attempt on Donald Trump. In it, he engages with Matthew 5:38-39 to justify his actions, and it's stirring a lot of emotion within me...

Workers of the world unite! Happy International Workers Day, let us keep campaigning for a future owned by the working class. Blessed St. Joseph's day, father of Christ and labourer, may he intercede for all workers today, and may his life serve as an example of the dignity and godliness in labour

confessing before the rulers of this world

Our assurance as Christians is that nothing, not even death, shall separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Amen.

The eroticism present in the artwork of Fabián Cháirez has me mesmerised. It’s queer theology in action, intentionally transgressive intimacy with the Lord, the man we can be most intimate with. Everyone, be wed to Jesus! Enter His body (the Church)! eat Him! Gaze at His naked body on the cross!

How the world works in a nutshell: giant corporations profit from an illegal war whilst the governments who wage them tell the rest of us to tighten our belts. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

I would love to see Orthodox and Anglican Church’s have ecumenical communion

Today is also the Major Rogation, a day for fasting and partaking in the Litany of the Saints prayer! Lord, forgive us for the times we have been poor stewards of Your creation. We thank You for the weather and for the rhythm of the seasons, and help us remember all good things come from Your hand

Just call God “she” or “her” or “mother” and you will find out very quickly how many Christians refuse to see God’s image in women. As if calling God by a feminine pronoun is demeaning to God rather than naming part of who God is. This is the worship of patriarchy.

Thank the Lord. Assisted dying only dehumanises and pressures terminally ill people, disincentives the development of better palliative care or compassion, and treats the image of God in the frail as disposable. We are called to HELP others beyond physical condition, productivity, or absence of pain

🧵 Today we thank God for St. Mark the Evangelist. Traditionally placed as the author of Mark’s Gospel and founder of the Church of Alexandria, making him a central figure of the Coptic/Greek Orthodox Churches.

POV: you are a straight person walking into a queer-affirming Anglo-Catholic church that uses incense

I may as well reshare it myself 😇

When we Christians interpret the Bible with an unforgiving literalism towards our fellow citizens, yet interpret it with graciousness towards our preferred politicians, that's when we can be certain we are just using it to leverage our own power and privilege rather than to actually love others.

Turns out you can now pre order my forthcoming book on Anglo-Catholicism and trans feminism! Baffled by the link? Intrigued? Check it out! blackwells.co.uk/bookshop/pro...

Do you, then, forgive those who have sinned against you?

We glory in your cross, O Lord, and praise and glorify your holy resurrection; for by virtue of your cross joy has come to the whole world.

Glory! Glory! He is Risen!

Blessed Maundy Thursday, here’s me stripping the Lady Chapel’s altar

A #TransDayOfVisibility prayer by #trans #nonbinary priest Rev Bingo Allison, inspired by the #Transfiguration of Jesus when he is transformed gloriously on a mountaintop [Luke 9:28-36] #FaithfullyLGBT #TDOV

we have no power of ourselves to help ourselves

Blessed transgender day of visibility on this Holy Tuesday 🏳️‍⚧️

Only 1 transgender woman has ever competed in the Olympics: Laurel Hubbard (NZ). None has medaled. So this ban isn’t about the unfair competition from transwomen athletes; It's about the busybody bigotry of people running the Olympics. (Casey Wasserman, head of LA games, is in the Epstein files.)
