- "In this paper I want to look critically at the BAS [Book of Alternative Services] from the perspective of one who cares deeply for liturgical reform. I will examine it in relation to three different questions which, taken together, give a broadly based perspective on the text's approach to Christian activity in the world: To what extent does the liturgy reflect an understanding of corporate and structural evil ? How is God described ? And, what expectations for the `aeternum' and the `parousia' are evident ? Each section of this paper will consider various prayers drawn from the different liturgies in the BAS and offer some preliminary evaluation in response to the above questions. The final section of the paper will contain some conclusions".

- "Regarding the letters 'Cherry-picking God's advice' and 'As a role model, Cherry is the pits' (January 2020 issue, p. 5), I am neither a fan of pro hockey nor of Don Cherry, but it struck me that it would have been a more Christian response not to kick someone when they're down. Have letter writers Judith Butler and John Whitmore never spent time in the proverbial penalty box ? ... I'm not surprised that the January issue deals with the church's rate of decline. Rampant hypocrisy is one of our main challenges".

- "As a young Christian I was captivated by Jesus' vision for our human community rooted in love and lived with mercy, compassion, justice and human dignity". "Yet me experience of God's community revealed that we could also be the place where human desires could wage battle in jealousy, rivalry, power or other manifestations of broken boundaries. The church is a living paradox with a vision of the possibilities for healthy, whole human community in relationship with God ... alongside the capacity to harm and hurt one another deliberately and accidentally through human weakness, misunderstandings and sun. Over the past few months, we have seen this paradox revealed as allegations of misconduct led to the resignation of Mark MacDonald and #ACCtoo raised concerns about the ways in which the church handles allegations of sexual misconduct". "It is understandable that when any of these things happen, anger boils over at the disparity between out vision and our reality. We want the church to be perfect now. We want it to be a safe haven in a broken world. When it is not, our disillusionment is painful. Some walk away from the Church at our hypocrisy. Some lash out in anger. Others acknowledge the paradoxical tension that we always live with and dig in to the hard work of transforming hearts, minds and systems to come closer to the reality we desire -- the kingdom of God". "May our Church be humble about its weaknesses yet committed to its vision of transformation into the vision of the kingdom of God".

- "For Christians ... spiritual wholeness is found in our relationship with God through Jesus Christ. ... Any break in that relationship -- sin -- has an effect of our whole lives. The harmony of our life is disrupted and we are not well. We all have experienced how guilt or hurts given to others disrupt our lives with emotional and mental pain and destroyed social relationships. Our health is restored as much through forgiveness and grace as it is through medicine and therapy. That is why our wholeness is found in a partnership between the wisdom and gifts of medicine and the gifts of pastoral care and the sacraments. The former restores the harmony of body and mind, while the latter restores the harmony of relationship with God and one another -- our deepest values and beliefs about who and why we are. This partnership is particularly demonstrated in the work of chaplains in hospitals and nursing homes". "It was my joy to share this partnership in parish ministry with a team of clergy and a parish nurse. The parish nurse was a key link between the physical, mental, social and spiritual aspects of the lives of parishioners, knowing how to connect with the medical systems and linking needs for sacramental or pastoral care with the clergy and pastoral caregivers".

- Notes
- "For a number of years, it has been very important for me to research and discuss the communal nature of sin and evil. Often, this is referred to as systemic evil. Under this category, we have mentioned things like the Doctrine of Discovery, racism and colonialism." "We must examine our own individual conscience and deal with sin and evil in ourselves at a personal level. This is an indispensable component of our participation in God's plan to overcome sin, evil and death, both corporate and individual". "We cannot join the struggle against systemic evil without taking responsibility for our own entanglement in it. We are wounded by systemic evil and, at the same time, wound others and God's creation. Lent is a time for us to enter, afresh, the gift of repentance and walk the way of the cross towards new life -- for ourselves, for humanity, and for creation".
