About Jesus Was An Episcopalian

Product Description This light-hearted, interesting and thoroughly engaging book invites newcomers and those looking for a refresher course to take a new look at the Episcopal Church. "It's an amazing time to be an Episcopalian. Our church has a renewed sense of vision and leadership that's all about feeding the hungry and clothing the naked. We're all about standing up for equal rights and the environment. We're all about welcoming everybody to the table, preaching repentance and accepting forgiveness. We hold together modern thought and an ancient faith firmly rooted in Jesus Christ. We offer vital communities that help families, singles - countless people make sense of their lives and their places in the world. Jesus Was an Episcopalian (And You Can Be One Too!) is all about letting the world know who we are and who the Lord is calling us to be. Let's face it, few people today know what an Episcopalian is (be honest - how many people have asked you how to spell it?), yet many of us who have found Christ through this wonderful tradition believe we have an incredible gift to share. That's what this book is about. It's an uplifting, breezy, down-to-earth apologia for a new generation. It's for the church. It's for the world. It's one way for the church to love the world." (Chris Yaw) Review "Yes, the Lord has a sense of humor, that is why God created Anglicans! Thank you my friend for this light-hearted and generous invitation to inquirers." --Desmond M Tutu Archbishop Emeritus Review "Open this book and your mind at the same time. Learn more about who the Episcopal Church really is, and what we stand for, like caring for the poor (and the earth), and changing the world. A motivating introduction for inquirers and anyone who wants a refresher." Review "Some introductions to the mission and witness of the Episcopal Church are informative. Chris Yaw's, 'Jesus Was an Episcopalian' is informative, interesting, and thoroughly engaging. It is about the present and future of the Episcopal Church. It is about the heart of the Church's worship and service in the world. It is exciting!" Review "Some books are provocative because they have shock value. Jesus Was an Episcopalian is provocative because it gently provokes thought and conversation -- not just about what the Episcopal Church is but what it can be. A great book for a thinking Christian -- or someone thinking about becoming a Christian." Book Description "A fresh and exciting look at the emerging Episcopal Church...Bravo!"
