If interested in the Anglican Way, go back to the sources. Read Hooker, Jewel, Cranmer, Donne, Taylor, Waterland, Latimer, Andrewes, Cosin, Tyndale, Hooper, Ridley, Ken, Hall, Ussher, Beveridge, etc. Find a beautiful tradition forged in conflict, ready for the challenges of today

We had the first tastes of our Whitsunday Ale at Trinity. The Fellowship of the Men brewed it, and we all enjoyed it. (the kids had soda)

Audio and text of the Sunday sermon from Trinity Anglican Church Link Below "The events of Pentecost are a practical course in discerning and interpreting miracles. We learn that the miracles of God are not ours to command, but his doing for his purposes. We see the Church alive today, despite the wear and tear of twenty centuries of human folly, and still the same Church of the Apostles and the disciples in Jesus Christ, indwelt by the Holy Ghost. We discover that, while we may belong to the Church, the Church belongs to God, and she remains his one promised means of spiritual power; of life-giving grace; of his personal presence; and of an eternal union of God, shared with a redeemed and obedient mankind."

@Canonandcreed @reformedtexan Great book

Will be looking at some of this on my show next week, but big shoutout to @reformedtexan for his labors on this. For those wondering, this is different than Dr. Lynch’s translation of Davenant’s On the Death of Christ and yes it is worth the cost. Very important historical work behind Davenant’s On the Death of Christ that really refutes a lot of the folklore around English hypothetical universalism… especially from professedly Reformed folk.

You love to see it.

Much has changed in Connersville, IN over the years, but Trinity and our beautiful church remain the same. What a blessing to be in this wonderful town and to share the faith handed down from generation to generation.

@WesleyLHuff We read that passage each year on a Sunday, and I have to coach my readers to be ready for it, but it is a beautiful turn of phrase.

One of my favourite verses in the 1611 KJB: “Wherefore lay apart all filthinesse and superfluitie of naughtinesse, and receiue with meeknesse the engrafted word, which is able to saue your soules.

@KraftZacharonii Oh yes, I am good friends with Davidson Morse.

@GodRemembrancer Have you ever been sir?

@the_thin_place Great work here.

Audio and text of the Sunday sermon from Trinity Anglican Church (Connersville, IN) Link Below "Into this stormy world of confusion, God has always shined the light for His people to follow. The chosen men and women who followed Moses out of Egypt had been trained by hundreds of years of exposure to the demon gods of the Egyptians to trust in meaningless sacrifices offered to lifeless idols. After all, the Egyptians were the most powerful people the world had ever seen, how else could they have accumulated such wealth and prosperity if the gods were not pleased with them? Even after the living God spent months showing His people the impotence of the Egyptian gods by choosing plagues which matched up with their supposed sovereign domains, even after parting the Red Sea to save them from the Egyptian god/king’s warriors, even after all those incredible demonstrations of the true God’s power, the people were still constantly tempted to trust in the comfortable lies of the past. Mere days after being saved, the people built a calf of gold and pretended it was the God who made the earth; they sacrificed and fornicated before a shiny cow to somehow bind to their wills the God who crafted the Himalayas; the God who built your circulatory system. Madness is the only possible description."

There are a few of those tracts collections around; may I suggest something more rare like a collection of John Donne's sermons (which are beautiful) or Daniel Waterland's very influential but out of print book on the Eucharist or John Cosin's "The History of Popish Transubstantiation" (important as Cosin was one of the principle editors of the 1662 BCP). Any of these options would find an immediate audience.

It's already outsold the first volume of the Septuagint, lol Thank you Anglicanbros. I'm investigating the feasibility of also doing Newman's (et al) Tracts for the Times. I'm not sure that could all fit in one book though

@kyotoisreformed We do in Connersville, IN

are there still many anglican parishes using the KJV? i wish it was more common.

This looks great, and at a price to put easily on your church's bookshelf.

Concerning the alleged letter of Geste's, wherein he argued Article 28 to be of his own hand, and to teach a presence "corporally, naturally, really, substantially, and carnally". The Principles of Theology: An Introduction to the Thirty-Nine Articles by W.H. Griffith Thomas

@uncle_deluge This looks great.

The Anglican 39 Articles mention two "Books of Homilies" which are, hypothetically, the second most important source of authority in the entire Church of England. They've been out print in all but extremely expensive academic editions for like 150 years. They were, anyway

@extrasalt513 This is entirely true
