Today's poem, though written for the far more infrequent crowning of monarchs, contains plenty of sentiments fitting for a quadrennial presidential inauguration. Happy reading.On a pillar on the west wall of Poets' Corner in Westminster Abbey is a white marble bust to poet and clergyman John Keble. The bust is signed and dated by Thomas Woolner, 1872 and is just inscribed 'JOHN KEBLE'. The memorial was originally much more elaborate and was in the south west tower chapel of the nave (now St George's chapel), placed between Dr Thomas Arnold and William Wordsworth. The bust, on a foliated corbel, was set within a decorated oval frame set with jewels with two small pillars either side of the bust. Above was a decorated cross and below a square tablet with the inscription:In memory of John Keble, author of the Christian Year. Born 1792. Died 1866. In quietness and in confidence shall be your strength. Isaiah xxx.15. He rests in peace at Hursley of which he was Vicar 30 years.When the chapel was redesigned in 1932 the memorials there were all moved - Arnold to the north west nave chapel and Wordsworth to Poets' Corner. Only the bust of Keble was retained and mounted on a new Purbeck marble bracket in the Corner.He was born at Fairford in Gloucestershire on 25th April 1792, son of the Reverend John Keble and his wife Sarah (Maule). After education at home he attended Oxford University. In 1827 he published his popular work The Christian Year. He was professor of poetry at Oxford and became rector of Hursley in Hampshire in 1836. With Newman and Pusey he instigated the Oxford Movement. He married Charlotte Clarke but there were no children. He died on 29th March 1866 and is buried at Hursley. Keble College in Oxford was founded in his memory.-bio via Westminster Abbey This is a public episode.

Christ The King Hymn Festival A Festival of Scripture and Song for the Last Sunday of the Christian Year based upon the life of Christ and the Nicene Creed
Pastor Taylor Shippy - Luke 19:11-27 Today is "Christ the King Sunday," the final Sunday before Advent, the last Sunday of the Christian Year, a day set aside to remember where Christ is currently, ruling and reigning, I believe I heard this morning a charge from our king, challenging us to live boldly and publicly and unapologetically as His followers wherever we find ourselves…
It's time for All Saints Sunday, folks, one of the weirdest and, arguably, most wonderful celebrations in the Christian Year. We take a Sunday to remember and honor and grieve those who have died...but it's not a morbid service. It is an affirmation of legacy, and love, and life, the connections that still hold us together. Enjoy today's conversation, and maybe find a church on Sunday to enter in to the mystery that is life.
Key Bible Verse: "Then they will know that I am the LORD, when I have made the land a desolate waste because of all the abominations they have committed." Ezekiel 33:29

On this last Sunday before we begin our Advent journey, we declare as a church, "Christ is King." Christ is King over all creation, and Christ is King over our hearts. Before we welcome him in the humility of a manger and in the innocence of an infant, we proclaim his power and authority. This day offers us an opportunity to reflect upon the ways our lives embody that declaration that Christ is, indeed, King. John Wesley, the founder of Methodism, did a daily inventory of 22 questions to ponder how he was living into Christ's power and presence in his life. Ignatius of Loyola gave us the spiritual discipline of the Daily Examen to consider the ways we are seeking and seeing God in our world. This final Sunday of our "Christian Year" offers an opportunity to reflect upon how our discipleship has embodied Christ's power and presence in our lives this last year, and the newness of Advent invites us to live with intention of how we can be more aware of Christ as King over our lives.

Pastor Taylor Shippy - Matthew 24:36-44 Today marks the beginning of the Advent season but also the start of a new Christian Year. And historically but also traditionally, the church calendar doesn't begin with the beginning but actually with the end! The anticipation and expectation of the consummation and culmination of all things. A day and hour that no one knows (Matt 24:36). A day and hour that likely elicits more anxiety than eager enthusiasm (if not unhealthy obsession). The internal clocks, the circadian rhythms of the Church are reset and renewed not by revisiting a tranquil evening gathered around a manger - though that eventually comes - but by initially and briefly glimpsing the apocalypse. But maybe our Christian ancestors, who invented the seasons of the Christian Year, who drew up the season of Advent and imbued it with rich meaning and symbolism, recognized that there are lessons that only the apocalypse can teach us…
We all have a liturgy to our lives, even if we don't call it that. So why bother with one that's old and global, too? Since Advent is the start of a new liturgical year, Seth and Tsh unpack what the calendar is and why it matters. Not so much a deep dive, this chat is more of a high-level perspective on why it's good to lean into a rhythm for marking time outside of ourselves.

Journeying with Jesus throughout the Christian Year helps us to receive the gospel of grace, especially when our post-holiday budget begins judging us. This episode is also available as a blog post: http://timehrhardt.com/2022/11/25/i-was-not-glad-when-they-said-lets-go-to-best-buy-psalm-122/
It is the last Sunday of the Christian Year and "Christ the King Sunday." Our scripture reading is "The Olivet Discourse" from Mark 13 in which Jesus describes the hardships that eventually came to Jerusalem. It serves as a stark reminder that every word spoken by Jesus Christ is sacred and eternal. Therefore, when He said he would return as a King, we can be sure of it, as surely as the destruction of Jerusalem in the year 70.
Preaching: Ben ConachanChrist the King Sunday is the climax and conclusion of the Church's liturgical journey through the life of Christ and the Gospel message. Its purpose is to celebrate the culmination of Christ as king and his completion of the renewed creation that marks the fullness of his kingdom.Pearl Church exists to express a sacred story and to extend a common table that animate life by love. A primary expression of our sacred story is the weekly sermon.

On this episode of Gifts and Graces, we get to hear from Paxson Jeancake on how we might plan Scripture-based worship throughout the Christian year. Paxson and his wife, Allison, formed Rhythm of Worship in 2003 to provide musical, liturgical, and devotional resources; formative teaching; and practical training for the church. On this episode, Paxson discusses his new book, Lectionary Journey: Worship Aids for the Christian Year, is now available and provides Scripture-based worship aids for each Sunday in the Christian Year over the three-year lectionary cycle.
On today's episode of the CPC podcast, Kevin Sneed and Brandon Pasion sit down and chat about Lent. Often misunderstood, Kevin and Brandon take a little time to talk through the tradition and purpose of Lent and how we can enter into the story of God through this tradition. Highlights What Exactly is Lent? - 2:08 Kevin & Brandon talk about the purpose and origins of Lent. They also discuss the traditional Church calendar and the largest season in that calendar: Ordinary time. Advent & Lent (The difference is more than just candy) - 11:01 What are the similarities and differences between Advent and Lent? Light and Shadow: The themes and mood surrounding the two seasons. How do We Celebrate Lent in 2022? - 15:54 What are the practices associated with Lent and why do we do them? How can we integrate those practices into our modern way of life? The purpose and beauty of sacrifice during Lent. Being More Intentional this Lent - 27:11 How can we as individuals be more intentional this Lenten season? Three questions you can ask yourself to establish a practice. How will we as CPC celebrate Lent together? Quotables 14:07 - “To experience resurrection, which is where Easter takes us, you can't do that without death. You can't be resurrected from life. You're resurrected out of death.” 15:54 - “In some ways, Lent just provides you the opportunity to take up any sort of practice that attunes your heart more towards Christ”. 17:04 - “We take something, we take a set season… we set aside something or we set up a practice where that then allows us to become more keenly aware of what God is doing in our lives.” 24:04 - “I think Lent is the moment that… when we intentionally try to find a way of self denial, we join with Christ in his own self denial in that moment: not my will, but Yours be done. And in Lent, we ask that same prayer.” Resources & References (links to scripture & books mentioned, websites, etc) Matthew 6:16 - Sermon on the Mount (discussed at 18:54) Living the Christian Year by Bobby Gross (referenced at 20:36) The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg (referenced at 31:45) Airheads Candy

Welcome to the Re-Collect Podcast, where we spend a few moments taking the Sunday Prayer of the day into our weeks as a way to continue praying together as a church throughout the week. The Collects of the Christian Year are found in the Book of Common Prayer and help us focus our hearts on the Lord in our prayers and petitions. My name is Rachel Wassink, and welcome to the first episode of Re-Collect, where we're going to answer what are these collects and why should we care about them. O God of peace, who hast taught us that in returning and rest we shall be saved, in quietness and in confidence shall be our strength: b the might your Spirit lift us, we pray to your presence, where we may be still and know that you are God; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
Today as we start our week of looking at Matthew 25: 31-46, we talk about the Christian Year and how worship is organized. We specifically talk about this Sunday, Christ the King Sunday. What would it look like if we realized that Christ was king now?
The Feast of Pentecost is one of the great Feasts of the Christian Year, marking the fiftieth day of Eastertide. The risen Christ leaves us not comfortless – for God gives us the Holy Spirit, the Comforter, to bring comfort and consolation to a world in all its fragility and need. This podcast arises out of a collaboration between the University Church, the Cathedral and students from many Colleges of the University.

With Holy Week upon us, we're releasing daily episodes with prayer, scripture readings, and reflections on Jesus's final week of earthly ministry. Today, on Palm Sunday, we reflect on the theme of Christ's kingship. This episode features content from The Book of Common Prayer, The Services of The Christian Year, and The Worship Sourcebook.
Paul pictures Jesus' first advent in Galatians 4.4-7, as a rescue mission to set us free from slavery and to place us in God's forever family. I love how the writer of Living the Christian Year puts it in light of Paul's writing in Galatians 4 saying, Christ became the child of a woman that we might become children of the Spirit. He identifies with us so that we can identify with Him

Psalm Sunday to Easter Sunday is the most significant week in the Christian Year. But, in our modern culture the weight of this week often gets lost in everyday business and holiday obligation. On Woven this week, we discuss the significance of Holy Week and ways we can lean into the heaviness and the gravity of the events that took place the last week of Jesus' life.

In this final sermon of the "Weird Church Words" worship series, Nathan talks about how the Christian Year can set us free from a world obsessed with our purchasing power. Show notes: Our church website is stsumc.org, check us out! Join us for worship Sunday mornings at 8:30 or 11:00 am at 2003 W. 43rd St. in Houston, Texas. The music in our intro is from bensound.com.
This Sunday is the Last Sunday of the Christian Year. It is on this day the church specially declares Jesus is the ruler of the universe. He is a king who rules in grace. Then the first Sunday of Advent declares He is coming again to bring full peace and justice to the universe. (John 18:33–37)
In Part 1, we kicked off the series with a broad brushstroke intro to the liturgical calendar, along with a quick back-story of our faith and where we are now. In Part 2, we got into Lent, Eastertide, Ordinary Time, and a few other things. For this final part, we’re covering Advent, Christmas, Epiphany, Candlemas, and a few Saints days (like St. Nicholas Day), all just in time for us starting a new liturgical year in just a few weeks. Because as you remember, the ‘new year’ on a liturgical calendar is the first day of Advent... This year, that's Sunday, December 2!

In this Part 2 of our series on the liturgical calendar, we get into the specifics of the calendar that don’t involve Advent, Christmas, or Epiphany (because we’re going to get into those in Part 3).

If there’s one topic I’ve been asked more about this year, it’s for us to do a big ol’ 101 on what the heck is the liturgical calendar, and how Haley and I recognize it in our lives. Some of you know that a few years ago I was confirmed in the Anglican church after more than 3 decades in a purely evangelical, non-denominational framework, and Haley has been a Catholic for not quite a decade. So, neither of us grew up in a liturgical setting, but we're both now are immersed in that world (albeit in different ones from each other). But both these expressions of Christianity follow what’s called the "liturgical calendar," so in this 3-part series, we’re gonna get into it — and how you can participate as big or as small as you want, no matter your faith tradition.

"“It is good for us to have trials and troubles at times, for they often remind us that we are on probation and ought not to hope in any worldly thing. It is good for us sometimes to suffer contradiction, to be misjudged by men even though we do well and mean well. These things help us to be humble and shield us from vainglory. When to all outward appearances men give us no credit, when they do not think well of us, then we are more inclined to seek God Who sees our hearts. Therefore, a man ought to root himself so firmly in God that he will not need the consolations of men.” ― Thomas à Kempis, The Imitation of Christ

This is an interview with Nancy Brown. Fountains of Carrots is the podcast of Haley Stewart and Christy Isinger. In this episode we had the pleasure of interviewing the wonderful Nancy C. Brown about one of our favorite topics: the Harry Potter series. Nancy is the author of The Mystery of Harry Potter: A Catholic Family Guide and The Woman Who Was Chesterton (about G.K. Chesterton’s wife Frances). We had a nerdfest sharing about our love for the books. We discussed how they can be positive for both the moral imagination of the child and for family bonding and we examined some of the Catholic themes in the series. We also went into some of the concerns parents have about the series. If you haven’t read the Potter books and aren’t sure if you want to share them with your children, I highly recommend reading Nancy’s book. She covers every concern I’ve seen raised about the books, so definitely start there to discern whether they’re right for your family! Christy Isinger is the voice behind Fountains of Home. She’s a cradle Catholic who homeschools many small children in the frozen tundra of Alberta. Likes: Tequila, G.K. Chesterton, Flannery O’Connor, Agatha Christie, and the occasional online shopping purchase. Dislikes: slow internet and getting everyone dressed to play in the snow. You can find her at her blog, Facebook, Instagram, and Pinterest. Haley Stewart is a writer, speaker, blogger, Catholic convert, and mama of three. She’s a bookish southern girl with a love for BBC miniseries, Jane Austen, and bright red lipstick. With her bearded husband, Daniel, she co-authored Feast! Real Food, Reflections, and Simple Living for the Christian Year. You can find her on her personal blog Carrots for Michaelmas or on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, or Pinterest. http://fountainsofcarrots.com/foc-033-the-mysteries-and-greatness-of-harry-potter-with-nancy-c-brown-2/

This Anglican Life The Christian Year: Telling Time A conversation between the Reverends Danny Bryant and Thomas McKenzie Church of the Redeemer (Anglican) Nashville, TN www.RedeemerNashville.net www.ThisAnglicanLife.com
Trinity Sunday, officially "The Solemnity of the Most Holy Trinity," is one of the few feasts of the Christian Year that celebrates a reality and doctrine rather than an event or person. On Trinity Sunday we remember and honor the eternal God: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Trinity Sunday is celebrated the Sunday after Pentecost, and lasts only one day, which is symbolic of the unity of the Trinity. The Eastern Churches have no tradition of Trinity Sunday, arguing that they celebrate the Trinity every Sunday. Westerners do as well, although they set aside a special feast day for the purpose. The feast day of the Blessed Trinity is a summary of all the feast days we have had since Christmas up to and including Lent, Easter and the Pentecost. In some ways it is all summarised in the feast day of the Blessed Trinity. Fr Micháel takes us through a wonderful reflection on the meaning of our relationship with the Trinity and how we are welcomed into the love of the Trinity which is open to each one of us. Each of us are called into their family; not forced but invited in with an extraordinary freedom to say no but also to be able to say yes joyfully.
This is the most important week in the Christian Year when Christians commemorate what they regard as the central event in human history, the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. Jesus died on the cross, an excruciating form of torture carried out by the Romans. Today the cross is commonly used as a fashion item - not a symbol of death, but of consumerism. It can still cause offence; some Christians have been told they cannot wear one at work. Ernie Rea considers the different uses and symbolism of the cross with Dr Sophie Lunn Rockcliffe, Lecturer in Roman History at Kings College London; Dr Anna Robbins, Lecturer in Theology and Contemporary Culture at the London School of Theology: and Dr Ed Kessler, Director of the Woolf Institute of Abrahamic religions in Cambridge.
