Lately I’ve been looking at my education options should I be accepted as a postulant in the diocese. There are really three options that have been discussed and those are the three I’m currently exploring. One is going off to seminary full-time for three years at one of the Episcopal seminaries – none of which [...]

I really dislike John Hagee’s message of damnation for the world, but when I was younger and subjected to his hour of preaching and self-promotion each Sunday morning before actually going to services and Sunday School at our church, I did enjoy when he had one particular guest preacher: David Ring, an adult with cerebral [...]

Normally I wouldn’t care about what someone (whom I honestly had no clue who they were) saying something controversial on the internet. But I employed Rice Krispies’ chocolate cousin, Cocoa Krispies, this morning for some treats. And Rice Krispies set up my mind for hearing about how Anne Rice “broke up” with Christianity. I’m not [...]

“If you are able to bear the entire yoke of the Lord, you will be perfect. But if you are not able, then at least do what you can.” – Didache, chapter 6 Six months ago I had never heard of the Didache. I still don’t know a lot about it nor have read much [...]

I know this event was pre-Percocet and perhaps pre-Vicodin, but while reading RLP’s piece on dreams this evening I remembered that recently I had a dream in which I don’t remember what all happened, but at the end of it I knew I had celebrated Mass. I don’t remember why I knew that. Perhaps it [...]
difference in perspective

I’ve realized I have a hard time understanding people who don’t seek to be an active part of church. I don’t mean agnostics, atheists, lapsed anythings, and people who otherwise have little to no desire to be part of a church. I mean people who actually attend church. People for whom church is important enough [...]

Update on my abdomen: Next non-medically trained person who tells me to lay off on the pain pills will get shanked. [And then in a week we'll see how they feel but still tell them to lay off the pain pills.] I’m trying to get offa’them (down from three to two a day: one at [...]

I love xkcd.com: One blog* I read has posts written by a perspective I appreciate, but the fan club present is what I don’t appreciate so much. Posting in agreement of the author (ordained and active in the Roman Catholic church) garners praise and further agreement, while posting with disagreement too often results in questioning [...]

How bad is it for me to think “I win!” when I realize that actually, when you think about it, my baptism predated a true profession of faith?

Vacation Bible School: what do you think of it? Page H. Onorato reminded me of it today, brought to my attention by The Lead. My parish is pretty sizable and like any respectable Protestant church in the area, has a big shebang for VBS. I had prepared myself to flatly resist any calls to teach/assist [...]
