Should we use the recognition the Episcopal Church is getting from political figures? Yes!


One of our roadblocks to evangelism (that dreaded word) is our almost neurotic reluctance to explain our Episcopal faith and the enjoyment we get from it. Yes: enjoyment! We have something special to share with the world in this "Way of Love" that our Church is teaching now. It's a way of living the Jesus Movement, loving our neighbors as our selves, that we can each carry in our pockets. (If you don't have a wallet card of this, get one. Your priest probably has a bundle of them). The name recognition that Bishop Curry, John McCain, and Pete Buttigieg are giving is the proverbial "foot in the door". We need to use it.
