Every week, Sofa rounds up the bits and pieces that kinda haven’t made it into a complete post… actually thats the aim. Not done one of these for a while, I guess its been a casualty of… you know… everything going a bit… weird. (Is “weird” the right word?)

I also wonder if there’s been a drop in “Churchy” news as well? Or at least a drop in news about Churches not being… silly.

Enter this week…

Wishing the Bishop Well…

Wait for it…

Supporting Trump is “The Gospel”

Or, at least an expression of it.

Ralph Reed continues to insist that evangelical support for Trump is "an expression of the Gospel" and an "elegant and tangible expression" of the Christian faith. pic.twitter.com/wLtAsOLkka

And finally – Lets open the Churches!

The R Number is rumoured to be increasing.

People are angry at government hypocrisy.

There are concerns about people gathering on beaches.

People are still worried about their health.

Lets open the Churches! (Personally I once heard a sermon preached about the church not being about the building – but the people. But I guess that was wrong)

BREAKING: High profile church leaders from some of the largest, fastest growing, and most diverse churches in the UK, have written to the government seeking urgent review of lockdown measures that uniformly ban churches from opening.https://t.co/7o1uYdPeyh
