The only thing you can be certain of is that S.C. will not be dull – last weeks best debates were with an atheist, a Moslem, a Catholic and a group of Moslems!

“In all debates, let truth be thy aim, not victory, or an unjust interest.” ― William Penn

Yesterday Hatun Tash was stabbed and attacked at Speakers Corner. YES, at Speakers Corner one of the best known locations for public speaking and debate in the world, a bastion of free speech, yet week by week violence is being used instead of arguments to try and silence those who hold a contrary opinion or speak out against the so called, ‘religion of peace.’
Shameful behaviour and our thoughts and prayers go with Hatun that she makes a speedy recovery!
All who know Hatun are confident she will soon return to Speakers Corner where she will be sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ and engaging once again with Muslims or anyone else who wants to debate.

Preaching this morning at Swanmore Methodist Church.
A rare morning visit, normally I speak at their evening service, so it will be interesting to see some new faces (even if they are still wearing masks!)

Hot, hot hot at Speakers Corner, the last three weeks have also been ‘hot’ but in a different way with three fights breaking out;
Fight #1: a Moslem man punches another Moslem man. Fight #2: Two Moslem men punch one Moslem man. Fight #3: A Moslem slaps an LGBT woman and runs away.
Looks like ‘the religion of peace’ is once again failing to live up to its claims!
Hoping words win over fists today.

Preaching this morning at Duncan Road Church. Southampton. Join us back in the building or as we broadcast our All-Age Service LIVE from the Church.
