Late to Matthew's party

We are awfully late to this party, but fortunately, it is still in full swing. Father Matthew Moretz's You Tube ministry is among the most creative evangelism and formation efforts under way in the Episcopal Church. Visit him here. He's currenlty in the midst of a series on the sacraments, and these pieces are both edgy and substantive--Have a look at the video on Baptism. You will never look at being "received" into a congregation the same way again.--but don't miss earlier installments like the Scripture, Tradition and Reason puppet show, the Super Mario Carrilon or the Episcopal Sign Switch.

He gave a plenary session and a few workshops at the annual meeting of Episcopal Communicators in Seattle last week and drew big crowds. So perhaps we will see some video blogging on church-related sites in the not-too-distant future.

We have been using Matthew's videos for starters for Theological Reflection for our EFM Online sessions since they first came out. They are great to begin a session on any of the concepts of the church. The one on sin is particularly good - although all of them move people to a more reflective place while entertaining and often fun.

Father Matthew's videos are great; you'all did have an article about them a few months back: http://www.episcopalcafe.com/lead/church_20/church_20_father_matthew_on_the_sacraments.html
But, the videos are well-worth highlighting again!
Thanks,
