There’s been some talk lately about being a “theological affinity group” and there’s likely to be more. Some say that it is bad to form such groups, others say that such groups could be helpful within the PC(USA). As we discuss all this it is important to bear in mind a truth that is so obvious that it often gets overlooked: the PC(USA) is a theological affinity group.
I’m going to let you in on a secret about the lectionary. Not many of us know or remember that the Revised Common Lectionary was designed to be a eucharistic lectionary. That is to say, the readings for Sundays and festivals of the Christian year were selected with the weekly celebration of the Lord’s Supper in mind.
As we remember our baptism, I am convinced, with Calvin, that the Lord will be “pleased to lavish” all the things signified by the sacraments upon us.
Hey, There’s an App for That!
Well, not quite, but soon.
