Sermon: What’s it all about?
The Dean of Westminster, the Very Reverend Dr David Hoyle, preaches on Luke 10 at Westminster Abbey on Sunday 25 October, 2026.
'Love God, love your neighbour—the very heart of our faith. But, of course, we clamour for the detail, what does that really mean? The answer we want is the one that tells me precisely what I have to do, what I must be? What’s it all about and how do I join in; how do I succeed?

But we really have gone wrong, fatally wrong, as soon as we begin with our questions. You see, the answer that Jesus gives does not start with me and what I must do. Jesus is telling us to begin with God and my neighbour.
Faith demands that we still the storm inside us and recognise that the truth we seek begins in God and in our neighbour. The truth is not me.'
