Something I’ve been thinking about (and teaching about) quite a lot recently, but +Alan nails it: “Faith which is simply private judgment writ large makes “Choice” itself a greater good than what is chosen can ever be.”

This is why Protestantism will pass, and eventually be seen as a primarily cultural, rather than spiritual, phenomenon.

I’m pondering a potentially radical step in terms of Mersea life, to do with discipleship and the call to greater discipleship. More on that anon.
