  • 1 Christ Episcopal Church Adult Formation 2020 Summer
    Christ Episcopal Church Adult Formation 2020 Summer Foundations Course 2020 Guidance from Christians in the midst of Pandemic July 6, 2020 The poet who launched a reform On Sunday, July 14, 1833, the Rev. John Keble (image below), Anglican priest and Professor of Poetry at Oxford University, preached a sermon that accused Parliament of interfering in the internal life of the Church of Ireland (the Anglican Church in Ireland) by reducing its dioceses from 22 to 12 with no consultation of church leaders. Keble’s sermon ignited a storm of controversy for he claimed that the life of the church was not to be determined by the ignorance of public opinion or the whims of Parliament but rather by the gospel of Jesus Christ and the teaching and practices of early Christians – what he called “the apostolic faith.” For English Anglicans who viewed the church as one more agency of the Crown and its government, Keble’s sermon – widely published the moment it ended – gained him violent criticism from many and robust affirmation from others. It was his sermon that led to the emergence of the Oxford Movement – a reform movement in Anglican faith and life. This movement sought to recover “the apostolic faith” by restoring the teaching and practices of early and medieval English Christianity. They viewed the 16th c. reformation as but one moment of reform in the long history of Anglican spirituality: not a tragic break. They criticized the Rationalism that had left Christian faith and life bereft of the mystery of God and God’s presence in the creation and the sacramental life of Christians.

  • Francis Andrew Brewin, “He Who Would Valiant Be”: the Makings of a Canadian Anglican Christian Socialist
    Francis Andrew Brewin, “He Who Would Valiant Be”: The Makings of a Canadian Anglican Christian Socialist JOHN BREWIN1 Francis Andrew Brewin (1907-1983) was a formative figure in the Cooperative Commonwealth Federation (CCF) and later in the New Democratic Party. He helped to shape a party that shaped Canada. FAB, as I shall refer to him, was a lifelong “practising” Anglican. He represented a significant Anglican contribution to the Canadian polity. His religious sensibilities led to his decision to join the CCF in 1935 and determined the nature of his participation. This paper focuses on FAB’s decision to join the CCF, and examines the cultures that interacted to produce that decision. It will be argued that his religion and his politics were completely integrated. In his context it made sense for FAB to become a democratic socialist of the Canadian variety. The paper’s methodology is influenced by the approach of Clifford Geertz, as described by Aletta Biersack.2 The decision by FAB to join and to become active in the CCF is best understood as a cultural event, the convergence of cultures that gave FAB his world-view and informed his actions. I will, therefore, look at each of the main sources of FAB’s cultural perspective. In revisiting the way in which one Christian of a particular tradition responded to the problems of his day, one might glimpse how we might respond to the almost overwhelming social, economic and environmental challenges of our own day. Historical Papers 2000: Canadian Society of Church History 74 The Makings of a Canadian Anglican Christian Socialist Family FAB’s family background was very English and very Canadian.

  • Porvoo Prayer Diary 2021
    PORVOO PRAYER DIARY 2021 The Porvoo Declaration commits the churches which have signed it ‘to share a common life’ and ‘to pray for and with one another’. An important way of doing this is to pray through the year for the Porvoo churches and their Dioceses. The Prayer Diary is a list of Porvoo Communion Dioceses or churches covering each Sunday of the year, mindful of the many calls upon compilers of intercessions, and the environmental and production costs of printing a more elaborate list. Those using the calendar are invited to choose one day each week on which they will pray for the Porvoo churches. It is hoped that individuals and parishes, cathedrals and religious orders will make use of the Calendar in their own cycle of prayer week by week. In addition to the churches which have approved the Porvoo Declaration, we continue to pray for churches with observer status. Observers attend all the meetings held under the Agreement. The Calendar may be freely copied or emailed for wider circulation. The Prayer Diary is updated once a year.
