The Ordinary Life as Subversive

Hannah Matis
January 28, 2020
Commentary, Contributors, Movies, The Episcopal Church
One of the greatest strengths of Little Women is that it is a story of very different sisters, and thus becomes a kind of fable of the very different paths a woman may choose.

Words of Eternal Life

Fr. Paul Wheatley
January 19, 2020
Bible, Contributors, Good Book Club, The Episcopal Church
Just as baptism leads to identification with Jesus’s divine Sonship, making us by adoption what belongs to Jesus by nature, so too in John this baptism-like scene provokes an understanding of our ongoing identification with and consideration of our life in Christ.

Jesus’s Mission Statement

Fr. Bryan Owen
December 5, 2019
Bible, Commentary, Contributors, The Episcopal Church
Even Jesus had a mission statement to keep him on track with his identity as the Christ.

Learning to Sing the Lord’s Song in a Strange Land

Fr. Paul Wheatley
October 9, 2019
Bible, Commentary, Contributors, Ministry, Sermons, The Episcopal Church
Living with faith, hope, and courage in the time between Jesus’ resurrection and the resurrection of the dead and the life of the world to come, our life is “on the way.”

Eugene R. Schlesinger
March 19, 2019
Commentary, The Episcopal Church

Post-exilic Prophets and the Church Today

John Mason Lock
March 14, 2019
Commentary, Ministry, The Episcopal Church
Serving as a rector in the increasingly secular Northeast, I often feel like I am working in an unstable religious context.

Easter in Ordinary Time

Wesley Hill
August 20, 2018
Liturgy, The Episcopal Church
There is a strange kind of overlapping that we Christians find ourselves living out in between the first advent of Christ and his eventual glorious appearing.

Attending to Creation’s Wonder

Mac Stewart
July 3, 2018
Commentary, Ressourcement, The Episcopal Church
St Basil: “I want creation to penetrate you with so much admiration that everywhere, wherever you may be, the least plant may bring to you the clear remembrance of the Creator.”
