    Contributed by David Smith on Oct 24, 2007

    There are really just two kinds of people in the world, from the largest spiritual perspective, and that is saved and lost. All of humanity can be divided into one of those two camps.

    We’re in John Chapter 20 today - revisiting the story of ’doubting Thomas’. This is a familiar story. We have it read to us in church every year, though I’m not entirely sure why that is. As most of you probably know, we in the Anglican church work on a three year lectionary, which means that we ...read more
