does God heal miraculously today? (nucleus - May 2019)

Old Testament Miracles in the OT are comparatively rare and are mainly confined to times of deliverance. Most are miracles of nature, provision, preservation, or are a revelation of God's will.

NHS 70 years old (triple helix - summer 2018)

5 July commemorated 70 years of the UK's National Health Service. I briefly wrote for Triple Helix for the 50th anniversary (1) and the 60th, (2) so now want to reflect at greater length on Christianity's influence on medicine and the first 70 years of the NHS. The first 1900...

Assisted Suicide (triple helix - summer 2017)

Face the Future (triple helix - spring 2015)

Following mission work in India, CMF member William Cutting had a wide-ranging internatio nal career with paediatric trainees, but after retirement in 1998 'the paediatrician metamorphosed into a concerned amateur geriatrician' and these first two volumes of a tetralogy arise from his pastoral care for 'seniors', those over 60. ...

At the end of the day (triple helix - winter 2014)

This is an excellent review of the approach Christians should take when considering ethical and pastoral issues at the end of life. Brendan McCarthy's introduction starts with core beliefs, from which guiding principles are derived, and these lead to particular policies and practices. Those who don't necessarily hold our...

Saying 'yes' to broadcasting (triple helix - winter 2014)

My phone rang. On the line was a BBC local radio station. 'Would you take part in an upcoming live debate with a pro-euthanasia spokesperson?' This was back in the early 1990s. I had recently taken over from Keith Sanders as CMF General Secretary and was flying solo. I had...
