As the Bible wisely says, the tweet shall inherit the earth | Victoria Coren | Comment is free | The Observer – The Archbishop of York Finds his ne Director of Communications through Twitter. The Rest of the church needs to take social networking more seriously. Today my brother suggested that congregations could Tweet questions to the preacher to be displayed on a screen and answered at the end of the sermon. It would make it all more interactive and also more accountable.

BBC Trust considering non-religious Thought for the Day – Isn't most of the BBCs output non-religious? Do they now want to rid us a bit more faith. Colin Morris, a former Head of Religious Broadcasting at the BBC said that Thought for the Day was to "Lift our eyes from the mundane to the transcendent" – It seems we are doomed to more "eyes down". Hopeless.

Offering a welcome for all: church accessibility guidance updated | Church of England – The issue of accessibility in church buildings was highlighted for us on Easter Sunday morning. Three wheelchair users and their friends attempted to squeeze into the single pew space created in our church building. The building may be accessible but is it useable for people with mobility problems?. Access to a building that is stacked full of fixed pews and narrow aisles isn't much use to people like my 35 year old son who require flexible spaces to enjoy many activities. Apparently there would be a full scale battle with conservation groups if an application was made to change the Victorian interior to the the building.
Perhaps this new guide from the Church of England will help them to take up the cause on behalf of those who are unable to do it for themselves.

Nostalgia on the Settle to Carlisle line – Steam on the Settle Carlisle line this summer
Critics' Reviews – Planet Narnia – The BBC1 Programme The Narnia Code both delighted and challenged me. Michael Ward's discovery of a third layer of meaning in the Narnia Series by CS Lewis is clearly and stylishly analysed in this documentary by Norman Stone. A must see.
