15th April 2018: Hands, Feet and Eyes

The Revd Captain Ian Maher reflects on the family of God and what it means to be Jesus' body in our neighbourhoods. 

“Christ has no body now but yours. No hands, no feet on earth but yours. Yours are the eyes through which he looks compassion on this world. Yours are the feet with which he walks to do good. Yours are the hands through which he blesses all the world. Yours are the hands, yours are the feet, yours are the eyes, you are his body. Christ has no body now on earth but yours.”
Teresa of Avila

... and Peter! 
The Bishop of Sheffield, the Right Rev Dr Pete Wilcox shares with us the grace, love and hope of Easter Day. 

“Don’t be alarmed,” he said. “You are looking for Jesus the Nazarene, who was crucified. He has risen! He is not here. See the place where they laid him. But go, tell his disciples and Peter, ‘He is going ahead of you into Galilee. There you will see him, just as he told you.’”
Mark 16:6-7

25th March 2018: Palm Sunday

Begin Holy Week with a reflection from the Cathedral... What can we offer to one another in love, in grace and in hope?

Those who went ahead and those who followed shouted,
“Hosanna!”
“Blessed is he who comes in the name of the Lord!”
“Blessed is the coming kingdom of our father David!”
“Hosanna in the highest heaven!”
Mark 11:9-10

18th February 2018: Lenten Exercise Regime

Would you like to join the Dean of the Cathedral in his Lenten exercise regime?

“Of all the commandments, which is the most important?"
"The most important one,” answered Jesus, “is this: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one. Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ 
The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.”
- Mark 12:28-31

14th February 2018: Ash Wednesday

“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where moths and vermin do not destroy, and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also."
- Matthew 6:19-21

Bishop Pete reflects on Lenten practices in this week's podcast.
