Taking it slow...
Taking it slow…
The irony has not escaped me that I’d been wanting to read John Mark Comer’s The Ruthless Elimination of Hurry for some time, but had been too busy – until lockdown hit.
Suddenly, there was no school. No clubs and activities to endlessly run children to and from. My husband was (and currently still is) at home full-time for the first time since we moved to Cornwall 15 years ago. My job went on…

A Year of Living Winsomely
A new post on the blog today: A Year of Living Winsomely
We took a walk along a river on the morning of my birthday, coffee cups in hand, enjoying one another’s company and conversation and the break in the rain.
At some point along the path, as we spoke about birthday traditions, gifts we’d been given and the different ways that our two families, separated by thousands of miles of Atlantic Ocean, celebrated occasions, she asked me whether I…

The old sheep track follows a ridge between two fields that run away from it like the tide as it turns; rushing, spilling downhill and away to the houses and the villages beyond. There’s a row of ancient hawthorns on top, bent with time and wind. Their roots push up through…

Peace is a Gift
Peace is a Gift
Dictionary definition of peace:
a state or period in which there is no war or a war has ended.
freedom from disturbance; tranquillity.
The irony doesn’t pass me by that the time of year that we talk the most about peace can often be our busiest.
‘Joy to the world’ we sing, ‘and on earth peace, toward men of goodwill.’
But dark mornings and hectic schedules can mean that this is…
