  • March 21, 2021 Sermon
    Kerry Mansir March 21, 2021 Christ Church Gardiner Lent 5 In the parish news a couple of weeks ago, I shared the story of the Philadelphia 11 in honor of Women’s History Month. The Philadelphia 11 are the women who, in July of 1974, were ordained to the priesthood at Church of the Advocate in Philadelphia. This was remarkable because just a year before, at the General Convention of the Episcopal Church, women had been denied ordination to the priesthood. And nothing had changed regarding women’s ordination in that year. But these eleven women, and others like them, were tired of waiting. They had tried the legislative routes within the church, but they were weary of being put off so that the Church could continue to “study the matter.” Choosing to be ordained without the blessing of General Convention carried great risk in that the women could be deposed, in other words, permanently barred from the priesthood in the future, and possibly any role in the Church at all. Their ordination was an historic moment in the Church. Knowing the story of these women is important to understanding our church history. But as one of you pointed out to me, the press release from July 31, 1974 that I shared in the parish newsletter failed to name any but two of these women. The news release did name the three male retired or resigned Bishops who performed the ordination, the male Harvard professor who preached the sermon, and several of the male Bishops who opposed the ordinations, including the Presiding Bishop at that time.

  • Midwestern Journal of Theology 8.1 (Fall 2009): 84-95 the Cross: New Religions, New Theologies and the Only Difference in a Pluralistic Society
    Midwestern Journal of Theology 8.1 (Fall 2009): 84-95 The Cross: New Religions, New Theologies and the Only Difference in a Pluralistic Society Viola Larson Board Member Voices of Orthodox Women and Theology Matters Sacramento, California Abstract Viola Larson points to the trend in religious movements, Christian and otherwise, of viewing Christ’s sacrifice as simply an example of suffering for others. The article proceeds to outline the need for the doctrine of atonement and illustrates how this doctrine keeps Christianity orthodox. Larson demonstrates the doctrine of atonement from Scripture and engages several views on atonement from history. Ultimately, Larson contends that without a proper doctrine of the atonement of Christ on the cross, evil is allowed to run rampant in any religion, including Christianity. 1 Recently, in her address to the 2002 Covenant Conference,106F Anna Case- Winters, Professor of Theology at McCormick Theological Seminary, suggests that for our atonement, “‘The incarnation’ would be enough!” She also advocates for the theological position of Abelard, the medieval scholastic who held a position of atonement referred to as moral 2 influence or example.107F That is, the death of Christ on the cross becomes an example of the willingness to suffer for others and for that reason Jesus Christ is followed and loved. Other proponents of this view of the cross and salvation were Socinus, a sixteenth century theologian who 3 also denied the Trinity108F , and Friedrich Schleiermacher the father of nineteenth century liberal theology. Pelagius is seen as an early anticipation of this view, since he believed humanity capable of living up 1 The Covenant Network is an independent group within the Presbyterian Church USA whose members advocate for the ordination of homosexuals and for Progressive Theology.

  • Re-Imagining: Relishing Eve's Rebellion
    STATEMENT DW050 Re-Imagining: Relishing Eve’s Rebellion “Sometimes when you ask God for help, God sends a heretic.” These words, shared by presenter Delores Williams, may well have summarized the sentiments of many participants at a Re-imagining Revival conference held in St. Paul, Minnesota, April 16 – 19, 1998. Williams, professor of theology and culture at New York’s Union Theological Seminary, and other participants in this radical spiritual feminist movement assert they are seeking to salvage what they can from a corrupt, woman- oppressing, patriarchal Christian tradition. While not all would welcome the label “heretic,” one could purchase a T- shirt on site that proclaimed its wearer a “heretic in good company” with others who have challenged predominant paradigms of faith, such as Jesus of Nazareth, Martin Luther, Meister Eckhart, and Matthew Fox. The event was organized by the Re-Imagining Community, which emerged in 1993 with its first controversial conference, called to mark the midpoint in the World Council of Churches’ Ecumenical Decade: Churches in Solidarity with Women. The incorporated, nonprofit organization operates out of offices in Minneapolis, sponsors annual gatherings and “faith labs” for theological exploration, and periodically publishes a newsletter. Organizers counted 850 women and 50 men present this year, with participants coming from 42 U.S. states, three Canadian provinces, Germany, Uruguay, South Korea, Switzerland, Sweden, Kenya, and South Africa. All mainline denominations were represented, as were the Church of the Brethren, the Church of Sweden, the Metropolitan Community Church, the Ugandan Episcopal Church, and the United Church of Canada. Also attending were Mennonites, Quakers, Unitarians, Moravians, Roman Catholics, and at least one Sufi.

  • Current Theology Feminist Theology: a Review of Literature
    Theological Studies 56 (1995) CURRENT THEOLOGY FEMINIST THEOLOGY: A REVIEW OF LITERATURE INTRODUCTION* According to Sandra Schneiders's useful definition, feminism is a comprehensive ideology, rooted in women's experience of sexual op­ pression, which engages in a critique of patriarchy, embraces an al­ ternative vision for humanity and the earth, and actively seeks to bring this vision to realization.1 Feminist theology may be considered that part of this quest for justice which is concerned with critical anal­ ysis and liberating retrieval of the meaning of religious traditions. In the roughly 35 years of its existence, contemporary feminist theology has produced a vast, international body of literature that ranges across all of the theological specialties and beyond. The notes that follow revisit several salient themes and debates in the area of systematic theology, although no hard and fast division obtains between this dis­ cipline and feminist ethics and biblical hermeneutics.2 The current intellectual ferment first came to expression in Valerie Saiving (Goldstein)'s now-classic 1960 article, 'The Human Situation: A Feminine View," in which she raised the question of the applicabil­ ity of prevailing theological statements to all human beings. Her own suggestion, that teachings about sin as pride or will-to-power and about redemption as negation of self or self-giving love might look very different from the perspective of women's experience, struck a deep chord.3 Since then, virtually every aspect of inherited theology has been scrutinized for the ways in which its context has shaped its con­ tent, the two being inextricably linked.

  • Shepherd's Crook
    Shepherd’s Crook Memory Verse: “The gifts he gave were that some would be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, some pastors and teachers, to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ.” Ephesians 4:11-12 Study Plan: Learn about the three orders of the ordained ministry in the Episcopal Church and events leading to inclusion of women in Holy Orders. Step 1: Deacon, Priest, Bishop? Leader’s initials _____ Jesus called twelve men to be his followers and sent them into the world to do his work. He gave special authority to his apostles: to baptize to pronounce God’s forgiveness to preside over the celebration of the Eucharist We know that all baptized persons are ministers of the Church. In fact, our Book of Common Prayer (BCP) defines four types of ministers: 1) lay persons, 2) deacons, 3) priests and 4) bishops. As lay people, we all are ministers. Bishops, priests and deacons are ordained ministers. What is a Deacon? A deacon is ordained to assist bishops and priests in public worship and in the ministration of God’s Word and Sacraments. The first deacons were ordained to help bishops with service to the poor and the distribution of alms. The deacon’s ministry is to serve others, especially the weak, the poor, the sick and the lonely, and to help the church understand the needs, concerns and hopes of these people. The duties of the deacon are fully described in the Book of Common Prayer (BCP) on page 856. During worship, the deacon has certain responsibilities: the deacon may: read the Gospel preach the sermon prepare the altar for Holy Eucharist help distribute the sacrament dismiss the congregation A transitional deacon continues on to become a priest after at least six months of service.
