Kirkepiscatoid: No Anglican Covenant: No means NO

No Anglican Covenant: No means NO

I normally don't do "pass alongs" on my blog, preferring to do mostly my original work, but for those of us in the Episco-blogosphere, this one is too important NOT to pass along.

One of the main reasons I became Episcopalian is b/c Richard Hooker's "three legged stool" of "Scripture, tradition, and reason" makes perfectly good sense to me. It is how I have grown by leaps and bounds in my personal discipleship as a follower of Christ.

Read their web page here, and be sure and read Elizabeth Kaeton's erudite explanation of why this is important here.

I know enough to shut up and let these people do the talking, so I will. I do, however, invite you to pass this message along to your blogs!

Thanks K,

God gave us minds to think, hands to hold, hearts to feel and give love. I feel very sad about those who seem to want to change what the core of relating to the Almighty in what I call "the Anglican sense" is all about. Very sad indeed.

So rest assured tonight I will make a fire and spend some face time with God--a God who loves each of us for all of who we are, who loves our inquring, and sometimes skeptical minds.
