Podcast appearances and mentions of Michael B Curry

On this Pentecost Sunday, The Rev. Canon C. K. Robertson, PhD, tells us that the miracle of Pentecost was not just that the many heard the Gospel in their own language but that they heard a word of hope and about the love of God that gave them a sense of belonging – a sense that they mattered. The miracle of Pentecost is the love of God, not just spoken but lived out. As beloved children of God, we are called to bear and share the love of God with everyone we meet. We are ambassadors for God and Jesus. It is our responsibility to show everyone we meet that they are the most important person on the planet.  When we do this, Pentecost comes anew and the world is changed once more, one life at a time.   (The Rev. Canon C. K. Robertson, PhD serves as Canon  to the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church, Michael B. Curry. He is responsible for Ministry Beyond the Episcopal Church.  He represents the Presiding Bishop at many International and Anglican gatherings. He also works with the Executive Council of the Episcopal Church and the General Convention on World Mission.)    Email comments to musingsonfaith@gmail.com or leave a voice message at: https://anchor.fm/st-george-episcopal-ch/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/st-george-episcopal-ch/message

Rev. Dr. Tony Lin talks to Miguel Escobar about his new book The Unjust Steward: Wealth, Poverty, and the Church Today (Forward Movement, 2022). "Here is a book that inspires, yes, but also challenges and unsettles all who would take seriously Jesus's Way of Love,” writes The Most Rev. Michael B. Curry, XXVII Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church and author of Love is the Way (Penguin, 2020). “Weaving together words of wisdom from spiritual giants of early Christianity with profound reflections from his own life, Miguel Escobar pulls back the curtain of wealth and poverty to reveal our longstanding complicity with systems of injustice and calls us to make better, more humane choices, reflective of the teachings of Jesus of Nazareth, that can change the world." Escobar wanted the book to be, as he says, “accessibly-written.” The Unjust Steward offers information meant to help us think differently about money and how it has been filtered through Christianity at the congregational level. “You have to have conversations to expand the moral imagination of what's possible,” says Escobar.

A political ideology is rising that distorts the Christian faith and America's constitutional democracy — and poses dangers to both.

A joint Christmas Sermon featuring the Presiding Bishop The Most Rev'd Michael B. Curry

John 11:32-44   When Mary came where Jesus was and saw him, she knelt at his feet and said to him, "Lord, if you had been here, my brother would not have died." When Jesus saw her weeping, and the Jews who came with her also weeping, he was greatly disturbed in spirit and deeply moved. He said, "Where have you laid him?" They said to him, "Lord, come and see." Jesus began to weep. So the Jews said, "See how he loved him!" But some of them said, "Could not he who opened the eyes of the blind man have kept this man from dying?" Then Jesus, again greatly disturbed, came to the tomb. It was a cave, and a stone was lying against it. Jesus said, "Take away the stone." Martha, the sister of the dead man, said to him, "Lord, already there is a stench because he has been dead four days." Jesus said to her, "Did I not tell you that if you believed, you would see the glory of God?" So they took away the stone. And Jesus looked upward and said, "Father, I thank you for having heard me. I knew that you always hear me, but I have said this for the sake of the crowd standing here, so that they may believe that you sent me." When he had said this, he cried with a loud voice, "Lazarus, come out!" The dead man came out, his hands and feet bound with strips of cloth, and his face wrapped in a cloth. Jesus said to them, "Unbind him, and let him go."

In this special Thanksgiving episode of Bulletproof Radio, I wanted to bring things back to center with a focus on love and community after the wild year of change and stress we’ve had. Giving and receiving love is one of the most important ways we can be better humans.“Beyond our national identities and loyalties, beyond our political sympathies and ideologies, beyond our religious and spiritual convictions and commitments, there is a universal hunger at the heart of every human being: to love and to be loved,” says Bishop Michael B. Curry. “It connects all people of faith, hope, and good will.”I’m so pleased to be talking to Bishop Curry about this. He’s been the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church since 2015 and is the first African-American to lead the denomination. He’s recognized as one of the most popular preachers in the English language.He’s served parish ministries for more than 40 years. Throughout his ministry, he’s been an advocate for human rights and active in issues of social justice, reconciliation, speaking out on immigration policy and marriage equality. He maintains a national preaching and teaching ministry and has authored five books.His newest book, “Love is the Way: Holding on to Hope in Troubling Times,” touches on the three kinds of love: eros, which is romantic; philia, the fraternal, brotherly love; and agape, unselfish, sacrificial love that seeks the well-being of others.“They are all related,” Bishop Curry says. “They all have the same source.”I learned a new way of looking at love during my conversation with Bishop Curry. I hope you do, too. Happy Thanksgiving to you and those you love.Enjoy! And get more resources at https://blog.daveasprey.com/category/podcasts/

Presiding Bishop Michael B. Curry preached at the celebration of the Holy Eucharist on All Saints' Sunday.

Today I am going to share Presiding Bishop Michael B. Curry's message on the Way of Love. I hope you will continue to join me on my Walk in the Way of Love. Please share your thoughts at deacongregg.stpauls@gmail.com. This is Deacon Gregg from St. Paul's Episcopal Church in Beloit, WI. In this series “Walking in the Way of Love”, I will be sharing the thoughts and memories that have enriched my life by walking in Christ's love or thoughts on current events as they relate to Jesus' commands to love God, love your neighbor and love yourself. Each story will be attributed to one of the seven practices of The Way of Love: Turn, Learn, Pray, Worship, Bless, Go, Rest. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/gregg-schneider/message

The world has been through tough times before. Wars, depression, the threat of Armageddon, and racial hatred are all nothing new. And yet something seems different today. Perhaps it’s the result of a generation that focused on the self. The me generation, the culture of selfishness, the enduring power of the work of Ayn Rand and obsessive focus on self esteem. Maybe these things have come together to make this moment as corrosive as it feels.    So what the answer? The Beatles said that “all we need is love.” The Most Reverend Michael B. Curry, the presiding bishop and primate of the Episcopal Church, also thinks love is the answer, but in a less sentimental and more transformative way. Reverend Curry garnered worldwide attention to his idea in his sermon at the wedding of Prince Harry and Megan Markel in May of 2018.    Now he has taken it step further in his new book Love is the Way: Holding on to Hope in Troubling Times    My conversation with Rev. Michael B. Curry:

The Most Reverend Michael B. Curry is the presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church, and the first African-American to lead the denomination. A noted advocate for human rights and author of several books, Bishop Curry is recognized as one of the most popular preachers in the English language. In his latest book LOVE IS THE WAY, Bishop Curry leads readers to discover the gifts they need in order to live the way of love: deep reservoirs of hope and resilience, simple wisdom, the discipline of nonviolence, and unshakable regard for human dignity.

The Most Reverend Michael B. Curry is the 27th Presiding Bishop and Primate of the Episcopal Church. He sits down with our host the Reverend Rob Lee to discuss his view of love and how it has the power to save us all. You won't want to miss this.

“This past week, we have not only had to endure a pandemic occasioned by a virus, a viral pandemic, but we've had to endure and face a spiritual pandemic. The roots of self-centeredness where one person can look upon another person and despise and reject them, and not even behold them as a fellow child of God. We have seen once again the unthinkable become thinkable.” On Pentecost Sunday, Presiding Bishop Michael B. Curry preached, reminding us that there is a balm in Gilead that can make the wounded whole and heal the sin-sick soul. Sermon date: May 31, 2020
