This liturgy combines music and prayer as we hear the Gospel of John's account of the Lord’s trial, suffering, and death. We will engage in intense intercessory prayer for the church and for the world. It was on the cross that Jesus made his full intercession for us, and we are united with him through Baptism in that intercession. The final portions of this liturgy take place before a cross, where we praise Christ for his love, which he demonstrated on the cross.

The traditional devotion of the Stations of the Cross invites us to not only remember the events of Jesus’ Passion, but also to place ourselves in them. We will connect our current circumstance during this pandemic to stories based on the traditional devotion of the Stations of the Cross. With each station we will remember, reflect, and pray for the healing of ourselves and our world. Let us remember that it is our spiritual practice not to look away, but to stand in the gap between our broken world and the world that God imagines for us.

Colin and Ben discuss the brand new Red Church Door Podcast at www.redchurchdoor.org and share this wonderful content. At the 2019 Forma conference, Colin interviewed author Anna V. Ostenso Moore about her book "Today is a Baptism Day" available now from Church Publishing. Special thanks to the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta's youth ministry podcast with producing this episode. https://www.annavostensomoore.com/ https://www.churchpublishing.org/todayisabaptismday https://www.eycdioatl.org/podcast.html

The Rev. Anna V. Ostenso Moore is the Associate Priest for Family Ministry at St. Mark’s Cathedral in Minneapolis, and is the author of Today is a Baptism Day, a children’s picture book recently released by Church Publishing. On today’s episode, I sat down to what I thought was simply a conversation about the book, but as you’ll hear, dives much deeper into Anna’s personal life, and how the current position she and her husband find themselves, highlights the difference between the very present idea of Baptism and the agony of waiting for God’s time. --- From Anna’s Website:Wife, priest, daughter, sister, aunt, godparent, and friend, her greatest joys include dancing at every opportunity, a good pot of tea with her husband, David, and exploring new places with her family. The Rev. Anna V. Ostenso Moore found the Episcopal Church as a teenager. Sitting by the side of a lake in Northern Minnesota after college graduation, she felt a call to faith formation grounded in community, wonder, Holy mystery, and our Sacred Stories. That call has led her across the Atlantic Ocean and back. Her educational background includes a BA in Chinese International Studies from Middlebury College, Vermont and an MA in Youth Ministry and Theological Education from King’s College, London. She currently the Associate Priest for Family Ministry at St. Mark’s Cathedral. She spent years reading a picture book in worship every Sunday, wondering where God was within the words and images. Her first picture book, “Today is a Baptism Day,” which she wrote to reflect the beauty of the families with whom she works, is now available. -- You Can Purchase: Today is a Baptism Day on Amazon Today is a Baptism Day: An ideal book to read with children to wonder and learn about baptism, with illustrations that reflect the diversity of God’s people. Grounded in the Episcopal liturgical tradition, it is an accessible and inviting introduction to baptism for children and families of many Christian traditions. While learning what occurs during a baptism service, the reader (both child and parent) will be guided through the sacramental and communal aspects of the celebration. Beautifully illustrated in full color, a dedication page encourages personalization of the book, making it a perfect baptism gift. A family section offers questions and suggests ways to go deeper in conversation about baptism, making it a resource that families will use again and again with their children. -- If you know anyone who may be seeking parents to adopt their child, please share Anna and David with them. You can see more about them at: http://www.annaanddavidadopt.com/ A Special thanks to the team at Episcopal Youth Ministry in ATL for letting us use their amazing recording equipment. You can subscribe to their podcast here. Finally, thank you to Fr. Ben at Priest Pulse for letting Red Church Door use this content which was originally recorded for Priest Pulse.

You know him from his cartoons in the Church Publishing calendar but he joins us to talk about his project Renewal Works with Forward Movement. Also in this episode Anna Courie and Josh Hearne come to the roundtable to discuss some religious issues from the election season. We discuss Donald Trump's sexual assault comments in the Access Hollywood video, how forgiveness plays out with political candidates, Hillary Clinton campaign Wikileaks emails, the religious right and whether Evangelicals forfeit their moral high ground supporting Donald Trump, and the entire election madness. Our Roundtable guests also play a game called "Jesus Christ Super Star Wars" and ask Bible or Star Wars geographical trivia. All of this....and honestly not much more....on the newest episode of Priest Pulse. http://renewalworks.org/ https://www.cpg.org/global/online-resources/cartoons/ https://www.churchpublishing.org/christwalkkids https://www.amazon.com/Pattern-Prayer-Prayers-Grace-Fellowship/dp/0692578129 http://graceandmain.org/
