Prayer and loving “the other”

| Posted on |

Perhaps this is the hidden story of Emily Malbone Morgan–that she is a lesson in how our hearts and minds can change under the influence of God’s mercy and grace…which brings us back to why she has a spot on our calendar, her absolute devotion to intercessory prayer. The more we are connected to the rest of humanity, I believe, the less we feel different from the nebulous “other”–whoever “the other” might be.

The Episcopal Café seeks to be an independent voice, reporting and reflecting on the Episcopal Church and the Anglican tradition.  The Café is not a platform of advocacy, but it does aim to tell the story of the church from the perspective of Progressive Christianity.  Our collective sympathy, as the Café, lies with the project of widening the circle of inclusion within the church and empowering all the baptized for the role to which they have been called as followers of Christ.

The opinions expressed at the Café are those of individual contributors, and, unless otherwise noted, should not be interpreted as official statements of a parish, diocese or other organization. The art and articles that appear here remain the property of their creators.
