The latest edition of the BUGB magazine focusses on the concept of Covenant and includes contributions from a wide range of writers.  I was invited to share some thoughts, and today I received my complimentary copy of the magazine.  You can read the whole magazine online here (though if you follow this link a year from now it will take you to a different edition!),  You may agree or disagree with what I, or anyone else, wrote but I reckon it's worth a read.

The various Baptist Unions in these islands face many challenges, and there is a lot of mumbling and grumbling that I seem to hear.  For all their faults and foibles, these are bodies of people doing their best to serve the churches and live out their faith.  We don't make covenants for when the sun shines - we make them for when it rains.  If it seems that the assorted BUs are going through stormy times, then now is the very time that covenant matters.
