Adam Hamilton presents a welcoming, inspiring vision of eight Christian denominations and faith traditions. Comparing the Christian family to our own extended families, he contends that each denomination has a unique, valuable perspective to offer on the Christian faith. The traditions he examines are Orthodoxy, Catholicism, Lutheranism, Presbyterianism, Anglicanism, Baptists, Pentecostalism, and Methodism. For each group, Hamilton gives a brief history, outlines major beliefs, and describes some things we can learn from that tradition to strengthen our own Christian faith. You do not need the book to participate, use this link to purchase it.

Did you know that the console (keyboards) for the pipe organ is also a fully functional digital organ? This means that St. Stephen's has an organ that is capable of over 70 different sounds, plus a computer module with another 1009 sounds. That means I have the capability of playing almost any song using the precise sounds that the original composer envisioned.

This Sunday's anthem is At the Name of Jesus, and the text is set to a lovely French tune that you may have heard set to other words. The Postlude is a stirring arrangement of the very popular hymn God of Grace, and God of Glory. The Prelude is a meditative setting of my favorite non-Christmas hymn tune, THAXTED. I hope that this awesome setting will enhance your personal preparation for worship during the Prelude.  

Episcopal Campus Ministry will have a Welcome Back Brunch at Blackbird Coffee on Saturday, Aug 26th at noon. All interested college students are welcome to meet us in the downstairs room of Blackbird to chat and make plans over coffee and pastries.

FAMILY

How’s your family doing? Ever been asked that? How did you answer? The Bible never answers that question as we do, ‘FINE!’ No family is perfectly fine. Not mine, probably not yours. Not even sure what fine is! The truth is the Bible is 66 books of family strife of one kind or the other. But it’s also a record of God using the wounds we’ve endured or inflicted to make a blessing, even a miracle. It was a father’s favoritism that caused red-hot sibling jealousy. And it was jealousy that threw Joseph in a pit and into slavery. But that terrible choice by Joseph’s brothers through faith over time became something God used for good. Next time someone asks you how’s your family doing, don’t say, fine. Say, …ripe for reversal!
