One of the challenges facing the Christian Church today is infusing those who come from a basic, pagan worldview with the true Christian faith. The Shape of the Liturgy podcast addresses this and other questions like, “How can we sustain a community of faith over multiple generations?” These are not new questions for the Church, so it’s quite natural to look back to see how she has addressed these issues throughout history. In this podcast, Bishop Ed Gungor provides a landscape of Christian thought, practice, and formation that has enabled the Church to successfully find her voice in the midst of a deeply pluralistic culture, not unlike our own.This series not only explores this conversation generally but explains how it is specifically impacting the Diocese of St. Anthony, the diocese of which he serves as the Bishop Ordinary.Production by Citizens of Sound
