Lex orandi, lex credendi! The paradox of the transcendence of God and immanence of Christ in the liturgy opens me to God’s ways as the holiness of an Isaiah 6 encounter in the grandeur of song and smoke is also felt in splash and sprinkle and tasted in bread and wine. The Spirit sends ever changed to be present and presence in a changing world, vulnerably strong.

I resonate with this. An incarnational, sacramental theology is a big reason I was drawn to the Episcopal Church...and why I’ve stayed.
Love this! Thank you for the inspiring message.
Thank you, Tony! Lots of vulnerability as I'm in this space of transition. Bringing my fierceness along too. :)
Beautiful words of your journey to now - thank you❤️
