Is Pride a Sin?

Rev with a difference Jamie Franklin sits down to review the most pressing issues in church and society. This week: - Net Zero mania in the CofE as affirmation of environmental activism is added to confirmation ritual. - CofE spokesman defends teaching of critical race theory in CofE school classrooms. - Tory councillor King Lawal is cancelled for saying on Twitter that pride is a sin. - Pro-life activists say they were banned from worshipping at York Minster. - Controversy as friends of Mike Pilavachi tweet in his support. That and a couple of Question the Revs with questions about Holy Communion and baptism. Our Scripture this week is Romans 8:9-22.
