Watch: A Lent Reflection from St Hildeburgh's: February 2021:
Reflection: The Son is the Radiance of God’s Glory
"The Son is the radiance of God’s glory and - the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word." - Hebrews, chapter 1 I’d like to try and paint three pictures in your mind, without PowerPoint, if possible! Please do bear with me. The first starts with a question! Have you ever seen a partial eclipse of the sun? You know, when the moon moves across the sun and it looks like someone’s taken a bite out of the sun itself. It’s usually a big thing, predicted for weeks ahead with lots of publicity and TV coverage. If the weather is good and it’s a clear day, you can see the passage of the moon really well. I remember looking at several over my life, one in Cornwall in mid-summer, which was quite amazing, one in the back garden here on the Wirral, six or seven years ago, and one when I was at school. The thing I recall most about that one was that the teachers distributed black plastic photographic film. We had to hold the film up against the sun
