Bishop Ingham delivering his Easter message (video still)

Bishop Peter Ingham’s Lenten Message for 2016 encourages us to embrace the spiritual life this Lent, which is not for the faint-hearted!

Bishop Ingham’s message begins:

“When we hear stories of the Prophet Isaiah, we don’t often realise he was a well-bred young man, with every advantage in life, destined to serve in the Royal Court and aiming for a life of culture, luxury and power – that was until he had a religious experience of God calling him to something deeper and he knew his life could never be the same again! He became a changed person, giving up his privileged life to become a fiery prophet for God.”
