This week Faith To Go formation team members David Tremaine and Charlette Preslar discuss the story of Jesus reading and teaching in his hometown synagogue from this week’s gospel
We close out 2021 with Jarena Lee – a woman who fought for a woman’s right to preach in the African Methodist Episcopal Church, converted sinners, admonished backsliders, confronted Satan, and published an autobiography of all that she did. At a time when Black women were dismissed, she stood up and said no.
Joe forces his family to talk about hell. Drew forces his family to put the X back in X-mas. And the two catch up after a month of not talking.
Another conversation about music videos
David and Charlette discuss the story of John’s exhortations in the wilderness

By popular request from our Quaker audience, we talk Public Universal Friend, with special guest Kaya Oakes!
We’re continuing our look at what the BCP catechism offers on the sacraments, looking especially at the eucharist. Plus we talk a bit about snow and Lisa offers up a double-stumping.
Joe and Drew phone a friend, J. Leavitt Pearl, to figure out whether violence EVER fits into a Christian ethic.
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.
