The View from Bolton Street

Indeed, rarely will anyone die for a righteous person-- though perhaps for a good person, someone might actually dare to die. But God proves his love for us in that while we still were sinners Christ died for us.

Romans 5:7-8

This week I am honored to welcome to the pulpit Sarah Battley, from The Well and Hon’s honey. Sarah is a longtime advocate for trafficked women and sex workers and has been fearless and tireless in her efforts to get young women clean, sober and off the street. 

Sarah and I were classmates at St Mary’s Seminary and I have long been impressed by her work under difficult and often impossible circumstances. She is a living example of Paul’s words above - that God’s love is expressed in that while we are still sinners, Jesus gave his life for us. Sarah doesn’t only help good people, or righteous people Or remorseful people - but all people.
