At chapel this morning we prayed for the state of our nation. The uncertainty about Brexit, the fear of terror and the lack of firm government are a concern to many of us.

At a recent gathering, I was speaking to a young man I know who has been called to a pastorate. He asked me for some general advice. I was taken aback, somewhat. Thus far I've been one seeking advice rather than dispensing it. I had little to offer him, but I have since considered the question.
