21st. April 2020.Daily Devotion.
I read an interesting article about disabled persons whose lives have been transformed during this Covid 19 lockdown. So much more of life has become available online, from virtual museums, through Skype doctor’s appointments to online church services. Some people who were locked in isolation because of disability are now better able to communicate with […]

16th. April 2020. Daily Devotion.
Many years ago, in my first year studying music, I took part in a performance of Brahms’ A German Requiem with the University of Glasgow Choral Society. Brahms was not a committed Christian himself but was inspired to use many Biblical passages as the text for his work. For me this was a wonderful introduction […]
