  • Strategies for Encountering the Sacred in Everyday Life for Individuals, Friends, & Families
    St Peter’s Episcopal church Strategies for Encountering the Sacred in Everyday Life for Individuals, Friends, & Families A Note about this Booklet Dear Friends, When we gather for corporate worship on Sundays, we become what we already are: the Body of Christ. In worship, we are brought into communion with God and one another, and sent forth to live his way of love, for the life of the world. Gathering with friend and stranger alike, we remember who and whose we are. We strengthen our connection to God and our neighbor. This is the most central act of Christian worship, and nothing can replace it. In addition to the indispensable ways the community continues to gather virtually, in these days of social distance it is ever more important to rediscover ways to pray and praise in the fle sh. The Acts of the Apostles teaches us that even in the earliest days of the Church, followers of Jesus did two things, they worshiped in the Temple (for us, the Church) and they worshiped at home: And every day in the temple and at home they did not cease to teach and proclaim Jesus as the Messiah (Acts 5:42). Early Christians, drawing on the paerns of Jewish observance, integrated faith into every aspect of daily living. Throughout the ages, Christians have practiced their faith, both by gathering together for the renewal of shared sacramental life and as individuals and in smaller fellowships of friends and family. These twin practices of encountering the Divine strengthen and enrich one another. O ur curr en t moment inv ites us to r ediscover th e p ractice of fa ith in our hom es and t o conside r more int en tionally the da ily rhythm o f our so uls.

  • Abcs of Orthodoxy
    SESSION 5 Prayer In the Name of the Father and of the Son and Of the Holy Spirit. Amen. O Heavenly King the Comforter, the Spirit of Truth, who are in all places and fill all things, treasurer of blessings and giver of life. Come and dwell within us and cleanse us from every blemish and save our souls, O Blessed One. In the Name of the Father and Of the Son and of the Holy Spirit. Amen. Glory Be to Jesus Christ! Glory Forever! Last week we discussed the main Doctrines and Dogmas of the Orthodox Faith - the main teachings or truths about the Orthodox Christian Faith that have been revealed to us by the Holy Spirit, through Holy Scripture and the gatherings of the Church in Council. In particular we studied the Creed. I must admit that I covered a large amount of material in a relatively short period of time and I am sure that it was too much to absorb. And, you might have even thought or said after the class was over, that this information was beyond you and concluded that dogma is something that should be left up to theologians and scholars to debate. If you thought this way, I do not blame you, I even recall being overwhelmed in Seminary with many of the same topics, But let me share with you a very helpful explanation that one of my professors gave me as to the relationship between theology, that is the study of the teachings of God, and the life in Christ.

  • Holy Week at Home 2020 This Week Is the Epic Story of God Vs
    Holy Week At Home 2020 This week is the Epic Story of God vs. Evil. This is the battle God has been engaging since the beginning of time; God’s resistance, God’s cajoling of humanity, we who so often choose, like we did in the garden, our own made-up gods and coercive power, over the abundant life God gives to us all. Today we read this epic tale from the Gospel of John. Throughout history humans have been pawns in this conflict, overtaken by the anti-human, the anti-creation, the anti-God force. The temptation has worked every time. The kings of Israel have given in, The kings of other nations: You can be like God. It has been the same temptation to everyone with any amount of power, big or small. Jesus is on the journey to overcome, on our behalf. And now we have reached the climax of history. This is the Holy Week. The confrontation to end all confrontations. Surely evil will continue to be in the world, but the limits of its power will be known from now on. Jesus has come. To defeat evil, to overcome the temptation, in all of us, to be like God. Jesus is the Christ, a human with ultimate power, The man who is God. The One who could do anything, and will use that power towards his only desire, to lead a movement of people back to God.1 Let us keep watch, let us listen with our hearts as well as our ears, let us be overwhelmed at the Great Story, the Sacred Story, the Holy Story of how God has come for us.
