“We love to build people up only to enjoy equally tearing them down when we discover a flaw in their dealings or their character. Noah, Abraham, David, Paul, and countless others were put on pedestals and then seemingly knocked down.”

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.
