Free as a Bird
No matter how tall we build the wall the birds will still fly over. Free as a Bird, a well known phrase… but how often do we really think about it? Or feel it? Churspacious will be exploring the theme of communication in 2021 how do we communicate – with ourselves, each-other, nature, and GodContinue reading “Free as a Bird”
Advent and Christmas 2020
At Churspacious, it’s all go, as we get ready for Advent and Christmas! We are offering an alternative Advent calendar each day from Sunday the 29th of November until Thursday the 24th of December.

Rock, Seed, Heart
Never mind paper, scissors, stone. Let’s play rock, seed, heart. On this morning’s walk on the North Yorkshire Coast, we came across this rock. The way that the water naturally flows around the rock makes it look a little like a heart, with veins, or branches, or roots. And so, of course, a conversation beganContinue reading “Rock, Seed, Heart”
Jonah: Reluctant Prophet

Throughout July IContinue reading “What next for Churspacious?”

The Spirit is… well, ok, it’s like this…sorta… wait…just like a bit….. ok……The Spirit is …. Well… it’s complicated. We asked what the Spirit doesContinue reading “Our Next Theme: The Spirit Is…”
‘A Spacious Place’
The Psalms are a place I often feel able to find support and clarity in times of crisis. The beginning of Psalm 18 describes a Psalmist in crisis. Someone crying to God for help. After a really descriptive (perhaps even maybe a little bit dramatic?) exploration of God’s response, the Psalmist writes that God ‘broughtContinue reading “‘A Spacious Place’”
Talking Online
You probably know by now that I love talking online. Lot’s of people think that online conversation, particularly when it’s text based, is somehow inferior to face-to-face. For me, and I think for many others, that is not always the case. There are lots of positives for talking online; time to think, being able toContinue reading “Talking Online”
