The Church of England has promoted another woman to one of its most important jobs, the Bishop of Gloucester.
Rachel Treweek was just an Archdeacon in Hackney, when she got the go-ahead from the CofE's Top Brass to become the first ever woman Bishop of Gloucester. She takes over from bishop Michael Pelham, who was accused of sexual misconduct and resigned from his post.
According to the BBC, Treweek is a "natural leader" and has "a voice that speaks up for those who are marginalised; and a compassionate voice that speaks into lives and places which are hurting."
I think that's beautiful.
Maybe Treweek will reverse the church of England's implosion into risible irrelevancy.
