It is one year since I began writing this column on Mothering Sunday last year and we are still in crisis. The Christian Gospel has always included a message of recreation, whether that means the new life of Baptism as indicated in Galations chapter 6 verse 15 (“a new creation is everything”) or a new created order, as described in Revelation 21 verse 5: “Behold I make all things new.” As we come out of this Covid crisis we need men and women of vision, not only to get back to normal but to make a new normal. To get to this new normal we need to love God, love one another and love the soil, so as to realize a re-creation of the life that God has envisioned for us. Yes, we need to get back to many things as they were, but also to go beyond that and mend what is broken.
