Sermons and Talks from American Anglican Council
In this absolutely wicked winter weather here in s.e. Kansas this year, getting to church once or twice each week has been extremely difficult. It occurs to me I am not the only person who misses church when attendance is difficult. So to partially compensate for this,I decided to bring some Anglican thinking to your computer weekly for the rest of the winter months.
To do this, I found an interesting series of videos from two sources: The American Anglican Council and the Anglican Communion Network. Now to be totally honest with you, I disagree very strongly with ACN and AAC on a few topics, not the least of which is their dislike of homosexuality as a valid lifestyle choice. Three of their spokespersons are the Reverend Doctor Kendall Harmon, and Rt. Reverend Robert Duncan, Bishop in Pittsburgh, PA and Reverend Leslie P. Fairfield.
But, there are many Episcopalians who very much admire these men for the stances they have taken regards the Episcopal Church and its current stance on social issues versus the way the Episcopal Church used to be. So I am going to present a series of video documentaries the AAC prepared. These documentaries are, frankly biased toward the 'Anglican viewpoint' and whether you enjoy listening to these speakers or are quite angry about the way they have encouraged -- in my opinion --
wholesale abandonment of ECUSA, please join me in viewing these documentaries each week for the rest of January and all of February.
Although as noted, I strongly disagree with some of their sentiment, we are, as Episcopalians and Christians called to listen to, and enter into dialog with, our more conservative brothers. Now, let us give our attention to the first in a continuing series (at least six or eight weeks) of messages on the general topic 'Choose This Day'. Future talks in this series include next week's presentation 'You are Called to Make a Difference' with the speaker being Robert Duncan, then the following week a presentation called 'The Iceberg' (What's Really at Stake') with Kendall Harmon.
Quite obviously, these messages are NOT the opinions of the Episcopal Church, USA, but I think it is only fair that we hear what these gentlemen have to say. This week's video HERE
