  • doing things properly

    One of the things that has occupied a lot of my thinking recently is our EBA Gatherings. These are opportunities for us to get together from across the Association. (In case you were unaware the first one takes place in the Southern Sector this Saturday at Romford Baptist Church. You can find out details about…

  • one another

    A while ago I created some visual clues to a series of phrases from the Bible that all relate to ‘one another’ – how we should treat one another and be with one another. I remembered this recently and offer them to you for your amusement and perhaps edification. The answers are at the bottom…

  • links to a narticle wot I roted

    A while ago I was asked to write an article for the Baptist Union magazine Baptists Together. They were putting together an edition about children, young people and families and asked me to write something a little bit provocative. So I did. That magazine has now been circulated around Baptist Churches and you can download a…

  • salty light

    A short while ago I wrote a bloggage about taking action against the apparent rise in racist abuse and violence  and I have been reflecting on that since then. You see I think it is really important that we don’t just tut and roll our eyes when we hear about people being threatened, shouted at, trolled…

  • view from my pew 6

    Dear Internet I read Nick’s article on the tennis courts at Wimbledon (for some reason he calls it a ‘bloggage’ – you can read it here). It made me think about my own sporting achievements which, if I am honest, were quite a few years ago. When I was at Primary School I was entered…

  • to vote or de-vote?

    This week I voted. It did not take long. It was not difficult. It was an election for my local Police and Crime Commissioner. The ‘campaign’ has been very low key around here – no leaflets, no phone calls, no posters. I had to look up the candidates for myself in order to make a…

  • view from my pew 3

    Hello again to my growing internet fanbase. It’s Mr Grenville-Stubbs here again with another of my views from my pew. Some of you will have heard of my highly successful late night radio show on our local radio station: Hymns On My Organ. I have had  my Hammond organ for 35 years and people write in…

    The continuing observations of Mr QR Grenville-Stubbs: Our new minister, the Reverend Philip Inneck-Tucker, has decided to introduce ‘All-Age Worship’ services  or, as I prefer to call them, ‘services with something to offend everyone’.  Last week’s was a good example of what I mean. From the moment one of the young people started the service with,…

    A long time ago in an office far, far away I wrote a sketch to try to illustrate the breadth of what Home Mission (BUGB’s mission fund) does. If you would like to see it you can see a fuzzy version on YouTube. It’s a bit out of date now as some of the resources…

  • blind to the truth?

    Recently I acquired a study. The garage in our house has been converted into a study. It’s a lovely space in which to work, study and meet people and makes my life a lot easier. It’s also downstairs, which helps (not too many upstairs garages though, so I guess you realised that). And it’s much…
