A mother waits
Steve Cooper - Sunday 13 May 2012
Good morning! Today is Mother’s Day. It’s a day for each of us to remember our mother, and if we have opportunity, to thank her for what she means to us. If you’re a mother, or a mother figure like a step-mother, guardian or foster mother, I hope today is special for you. Our oldest daughter is about to become a mother for the first time, so my wife and I will become grandparents. Over the past seven months I’ve watched my daughter going through pregnancy, and I’ve been reminded of the devotion and care that mothers give their children, even before birth.
The story of John Foxe

If you happen to be in the Broad Street in Oxford just opposite a shop that sells lingerie, and if you care to look down at the surface of the road (avoiding as you do the reckless undergraduate cyclists wheeling past on their way to classes), you will find, amongst the dobs of chewing gum and the cigarette butts, a small cross. On that very spot four and half centuries ago, Cranmer, Latimer and Ridley, the great martyrs of the English church, were burnt to death.
