@CAHutch1990 @EvanSus96 I, too, am an SC native born in Charleston. I salute you, sir! 🫡

@RonOffringa @IFFFMEISTER Yes, but it also included things like anathemas for those who refuse to venerate icons. We affirm the Christology without affirming the anathemas. I think that's what the Fundamental Declarations are getting at.

@Kronos5czc @mugjudge @IFFFMEISTER We use it only on principal feast days. (For example, we've used it the past two Sundays for Pentecost and Trinity.)

[Adam Hunter ⚓️ @RevAdamATC]

@mugjudge @Kronos5czc @IFFFMEISTER Very interesting. I'll give that a read. Thank you for sharing!

[Adam Hunter ⚓️ @RevAdamATC]

@mugjudge @IFFFMEISTER Can you give an example of it being rejected? Or do you mean that no one mentions it explicitly?

[Miles Smith IV @IVMiles]

Fwiw, so do most Anglicans.

People treat God’s sovereignty as a matter of controversy, but in Scripture it is a matter of worship.

Most zoos: “We must conserve and protect all the animals!”

The Fort Worth Zoo has a children’s interactive showing kids what cuts of meat your BBQ comes from.

Powerful.

Some church will always have better coffee, better music, better facilities, better speaking, better marketing.

Showcase Christ and his gospel. Nobody can improve on that.

@TheDanielBoggan @monkofjustice This was my thought too. I know his letters are referenced a few times.

@mrdavidrowe @jeffreyhwalton Yeah, about that Common Life Commission...

@mrdavidrowe @jeffreyhwalton *sigh* 🤦🏻‍♂️

In my new book The Vanishing Church, I tell the story about a church service I attended in college.

Young guy comes in late with his girlfriend and baby.

During Prayers of People he speaks up and says, "I lost my job and I'm not sure I can pay rent."

"Lord in your mercy, Hear our prayer."

As the service ends, an older guy comes up to that young man and says, "I own the lumber yard and you can come work with me tomorrow."

It's not magic.
It's how faith communities operate.

@DOMA_Misconduct I know folks at Mission. To be clear, the women shown are indeed deacons, the "pastor" title notwithstanding.

But I agree that it's confusing.

[Tom S.🧂 @extrasalt513]

Deacons are undervalued and we need more of them.

@DOMA_Misconduct @The_ACNA (Again, this is coming from someone on the ENT that put Fr. Ben forward.)

[Adam Hunter ⚓️ @RevAdamATC]

@SnarkyRevAlan @DOMA_Misconduct @The_ACNA Fr. Ben is adamantly in favor of women in the permanent diaconate. So no, he won’t be pushing to change it.

[Adam Hunter ⚓️ @RevAdamATC]

@anglicanJ Are you doing all of 1 Peter through Eastertide? That's what I'm doing. It's challenging, but so good!

[Adam Hunter ⚓️ @RevAdamATC]

@NiceColorsss @DOMA_Misconduct @BethMooreLPM @CWPLowenfield Ah, that makes sense. All good!
