1st May and the first swim of the season is swum. And we have had walk, bike ride and Kouign-amann for breakfast. And it's still on 11am. #smallchildren
Happy 1. May from our local Musikkapelle at 6.30am
Bad Ischl's Maibaum is about half way through being raised. In the background, a brass band and children playing.

In this recent clip, one of the world's most influential evangelical preachers denies the validity of PTSD and suggests that diagnosing children with behavioural disorders will potentially turn them into criminals. This is wrong. This is harmful. This is not biblical.
“There’s no such thing as PTSD. There’s no such thing as OCD. There’s no such thing as ADHD.” — John MacArthur
🎯Nouthetic approaches cultivate scrupulosity. Such a treadmill to combine driven spirituality w/blaming ppl for resulting anxiety.
John MacArthur's theology kills souls. His brand of fruit-checking obsessive introspection mixed with a rejection of the existence of OCD as anything more than personal choice nearly killed me. Thank God for the means of grace.
The best part of a public holiday - when I’m the first up, everyone else having a long lie, and I get to have my first cup of tea out here alone.
These are conspiracy arguments. ("Big Pharma") It's the sort of thing churches are mired in since we started viewing politics as the gospel.
“There’s no such thing as PTSD. There’s no such thing as OCD. There’s no such thing as ADHD.” — John MacArthur
Yes, and I actually believe her. This is such a silly and clickbaity way to report ‘Christian prays about massive life decision’. It’d be weirder if she had a faith and didn’t find guidance in it over stuff like this.
@davidbunce @MadsDavies @megs_cornwell Yes - if we can give simple solutions to complex problems then it will make people feel empowered and in control. That seems to make sense.
@davidbunce Interesting thread! On institutions - the recent review of C of E governance diagnosed "a culture of mistrust". Complexity and misunderstanding is also an interesting one... churchtimes.co.uk/articles/2023/…
@davidbunce There can be a tendency to tell opponents or critics "this is all simply a misunderstanding" or it's simply a matter of needing better Comms when perhaps their criticism or concern is valid. And it gets into semantics when the crux of what they are worried about is legitimate.
Couldn't be happier that @davidbunce is reading The Future of Trust and thinking about what it means for churches — this would make a great conversation which perhaps some day we can have!
I was asking last week what it means to effectively lead (often church) institutions where trust was at an all time low, not least because of so many horrific abuse scandals. So I thought I'd dip a bit into @rosamundmtaylor's new book about trust and society
Thanks David. Please keep the @Christianitymag team in your prayers as we navigate the stories we're working on.
Likewise there is an important role for journalists to both explain how things work and why, and also push to uncover truth where things are kept intransparent (shout out to talented people such as @MadsDavies and @megs_cornwell )
@TimTierney3 @davidbunce @LisaROakley Good shout, Tim, these are helpfully explicit about faith-based abuse.
Tears of joy and sorrow intermingled as the MHRA finally put a "black box" warning on the outside of every box of Montelukast to warn of psychiatric side effects Too late for our Harry, but I pray this will save lives of other kids
“We think it ordinary to spend twelve or sixteen or twenty years of a person’s life and many thousands of public dollars on “education” - and not one dime or thought on character” -Wendell Berry
@davidbunce Exactly so. It's a messy definition but a necessary place to begin unpacking. It's such a hard thing to communicate in a way that gets the impact across to people.
