Daniel Bentley

We’ve had some great postulants from there at VTS recently.

Sure would be cool if in the fullness of time God put all things in subjection under God’s Christ. 📕

I was happy in the haze of a drunken hour,
But heaven knows I’m miserable know
I was looking for a job and then I found a job,
And heaven knows I’m miserable know

In theory, I agree. But in practice, mashed potatoes combine with the gravy to make a delicious slurry.

Post a movie of where you are from.

You might be going to heaven. You might be going to hell. But if you’re flying Delta, you’re going via Atlanta.

One question we did get was, if we baptize in a swimming pool does that make the whole swimming pool holy water? And if so, for how long?

I’m surprised my liturgy professor hasn’t been asked this question yet.

When, not if.

The British are mad for halloumi. Will put it on everything.

The Episcopal Diocese of Missouri had its convention at a large Methodist church in Manchester, Missouri with the name Manchester United Methodist Church.

Not clear if Pastors Cantona and Giggs were there at the time.

It’s always important to discern the Body of Christ but if hangups about your own individual conduct frequently prevent you from communing with your worshiping community then you’re sort of missing the point of communion.

Biffy Clyro not Clyde though autocorrect is in the right country at least.

He gets it.

Beautiful

The peace is an essential element of the rite but we need better teaching around what it is. We’re following Paul’s instruction to greet with a holy kiss, and Jesus’ to reconcile to our siblings before making an offering.

It’s not a half-time chinwag or coffee hour part 1, which I see often.

Can I tell you about someone else whose followers included adult content creators

1970, and codified in BCP 1979

I come away convinced that if presbyters can baptize and celebrate eucharist as vicars of the bishop, they should be able to confer the gifts of the Spirit through the laying of hands at baptism. (A mature profession of faith later is still a good thing.)

I hope we re-open this discussion.

Just wrapped up a paper (which I wish I could make into a thesis) on The Episcopal Church dropping the requirement for confirmation to receive communion.

My research made me sad that we didn't adopt the recommendations for Prayer Book Studies 18 to unify baptism, laying of hands & eucharist. 📕

This meme has gone to heaven.
