What is Anglican prayer?

“Inwardly Digest” by Derek Olson

Have you ever wondered if there was a simple guide to living a deeper spiritual life which incorporated Bible readings alongside meaningful prayers that have been prayed by millions of Christians over the last thousand years? There is—and you can find it in the pew rack in front of you where you sit every Sunday! The Book of Common Prayer is more than a service book for Sundays; it is a map to a deeper relationship with God, a framework for learning to live a more patterned and rewarding life of faith.

During this book study, we will delve into liturgical spirituality and how the prayer book serves as a repository of Christian spiritual practice stretching back to the beginnings of our Christian family. We will focus on three key elements—the Calendar, the Daily Office, and the Eucharist and discuss the spiritual principles behind them. The patterns of life laid out in The Book of Common Prayer helps us connect back to God in an intentional daily way. Our (red) prayer book is a wonderful medicine to a rote and dry prayer life as we grow in Anglicanism. Whether you are a new or a seasoned Anglican, you will find this class refreshing!

This book study is part of our Brown Bag Bible Book Study series that meets on Tuesdays at 1 PM in the Parish Office. Each session will also be posted to our Buzzsprout channel for remote access.

Listen in as Mother Ezgi leads a book discussion focused on Chapter 14 of "Boundaries" by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend as part of our Brown Bag Bible Study series.

Mother Ezgi's Final Thoughts on "Boundaries":

Whether we are beginners or experienced boundary setters, God gives us boundaries to provide the structures for our life to grow in his realm. However afraid and however resisted we may feel, we can take comfort in knowing the boundary work is a work of healing, and becoming into people God created us to be. And that work is being done by people around us. Boundaries are our participating in the work of reconciliation between God and his creation. And in doing so, we become our truer selves.

We are responsible for our feelings, and to others. We are responsible to stick to our no in love and honesty. No one deserves to violate or manipulate their existence into the portion that is set apart for someone else. When we live within boundaries, we live into the harmony God is intending for us. New Jerusalem is a place where that harmony is truly experienced and permanently existent. New Jerusalem is in heaven. We can do the work of heaven today, and start growing and not wait until we escape this mortal coil. Love and harmony can pierce into our everyday reality. Love and harmony is the work of the Christ's body. Boundaries are works of holy sanctification.

Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks the things we are responsible for. In other words, boundaries define who we are and who we are not.

SIMPLY CATHOLIC

Understanding the Anglican Way - Session 5 - Position Available for a Part-Time Monk

People join the Episcopal Church for lots of reasons – some for the beauty of its liturgy, some for the wideness of its welcome, some for the generosity of its perspectives. Because of the myriad attractions of Episcopal (or Anglican) Christianity, it is all too easy for individuals to become members of a church without really understanding what the church is all about. What is more, some may even fall victim to critical claims that Episcopalianism is simply a loose aggregation of religious “free agents” instead of a stream of historic Christianity with an internal theological coherence.

The Very Rev’d C. Patrick Perkins of the Fond du Lac Cathedral will lead us in a weekend retreat examining the broad contours of Episcopal history, theology, and practice. Describing the Anglican way in terms of being “simply catholic,” Dean Patrick hopes to convince seekers – new and old – that, far from being “Christianity Lite,” the Episcopal Church provides a weighty approach to following Jesus that defies ordinary ideas of traditional and contemporary, catholic and protestant, liberal and conservative.

The Very Rev’d C. Patrick Perkins of the Fond du Lac Cathedral will lead us in a weekend retreat examining the broad contours of Episcopal history, theology, and practice. Describing the Anglican way in terms of being “simply catholic,” Dean Patrick hopes to convince seekers – new and old – that, far from being “Christianity Lite,” the Episcopal Church provides a weighty approach to following Jesus that defies ordinary ideas of traditional and contemporary, catholic and protestant, liberal and conservative.

Understanding the Anglican Way - Session 3 - Open-minded Without Brains Falling Out

People join the Episcopal Church for lots of reasons – some for the beauty of its liturgy, some for the wideness of its welcome, some for the generosity of its perspectives. Because of the myriad attractions of Episcopal (or Anglican) Christianity, it is all too easy for individuals to become members of a church without really understanding what the church is all about. What is more, some may even fall victim to critical claims that Episcopalianism is simply a loose aggregation of religious “free agents” instead of a stream of historic Christianity with an internal theological coherence.

Listen in as Mother Ezgi leads a book discussion focused on Chapter 9 of "Boundaries" by Dr. Henry Cloud and Dr. John Townsend as part of our Brown Bag Bible Study series.

This fall’s teachings will focus on how to develop clear boundaries from a biblical basis that are essential to all healthy relationships. Is your life out of control? Do people take advantage of you? Do you have trouble saying no? Are you disappointed with God because of unanswered prayers?

Having clear boundaries is essential to a healthy, balanced lifestyle. A boundary is a personal property line that marks the things we are responsible for. In other words, boundaries define who we are and who we are not.

Follow along as Mother Ezgi leads the first session of our Know Why You Believe series, one of the Christian Education classes offered this Fall at the Parish of Saint Peter. 

The Christian life depends upon faith, and there are good reasons for that faith. In “Know Why You Believe”, professor and author K. Scott Oliphint answers the "why" questions both Christians and non-Christians often ask, laying out a simple and convincing case for the core teachings of Christianity: Why Believe in the Bible?Why Believe in Jesus? Why Believe in Miracles? Why Believe in Salvation? Why Believe in God Despite the Evil in the World? And more!

As part of the KNOW series, “Know Why You Believe” is designed for Sunday schools wanting to better understand the traditional defenses of Christian beliefs. Each session will cover a foundational teaching and will includes a rationale for that teaching, responses to common objections, reflection questions to prompt further consideration, and suggested readings for readers wanting to dig deeper.

The class will meet every other Sunday at noon in the rector’s office beginning on October 1st.
