Yesterday I partaked as a speaker and as one of the guests of honour for an online event held by Voices Online (which has over 1.3 Million community members). My talk was about how we promote peace in an increasingly volatile yet interconnected world. Some of the points I raised: 1. We need to move beyond tolerance to a place of acceptance and appreciation of difference 2. We can learn alot from others as long as we take a position of humility, respect and intent to learn. 3. Everyone can be our teacher in life not just educationalists.

Luke 10:33-34 teaching on compassionate care The Parable of the Good Samaritan in Luke 10:33-34 teaches the importance of compassionate care. It emphasizes awareness of need, empathy in action, breaking barriers, providing practical support, and commitment to ongoing care. The passage can be applied in modern contexts, encouraging community awareness, inclusive support, action-oriented compassion, and holistic care. It encourages individuals to respond with love and action in the face of suffering, fostering a compassionate attitude that transcends social, cultural, and religious boundaries. This passage serves as a powerful reminder of the importance of compassionate care in our interactions with others.

As executives, we are called to steward everything God has given us – including our businesses – to advance the gospel. A corporate giving strategy is a terrific way to leverage our resources to that aim. When it comes to corporate giving, do you give with a specific purpose in mind? How could your company’s resources make a Kingdom impact?

Today the King led the nation in two minutes of silence in remembrance of men and women who lost their lives serving in the two world wars or other conflicts. Did you mark the day ? Do you continue to remember ? Do your young people remember ? This morning I marched with our Scout Group to a service at Easthill Park Portslade. Where several groups, agencies and local collectives remembered. I am not sure how many times I’ve done this. An awful lot. Each year the numbers in our older generation at the service diminish but there is a strong core of young people that pay thier respects. For me, ensuring young people remember on Remembrance Sunday is crucial for several reasons: 1. Historical Awareness: It helps them understand the significant events and sacrifices that shaped the world they live in today. Learning about the past can foster a deeper appreciation for peace and the efforts made to achieve it. 2. Empathy and Gratitude: Remembrance Day encourages young people to develop empathy and gratitude for those who served and sacrificed. It reminds them that their freedoms and way of life were hard-won. 3. Continuity of Tradition: By involving young people in Remembrance Day activities, we ensure that the tradition of honouring those who served continues. This helps keep the memories and lessons of history alive for future generations 4. Community and Identity: Participating in Remembrance Day can strengthen a sense of community and national identity. It connects young people to a shared history and collective memory, fostering a sense of belonging and responsibility 5. Moral and Ethical Lessons: Remembrance Day teaches important moral and ethical lessons about courage, sacrifice, and the human cost of conflict. These lessons are valuable for personal development and understanding the importance of striving for a peaceful future. I sometimes post about the young people in my house : here’s two who marched today and remembered. The other one wouldn’t get in the photo. #scoutsremember
