Episcopal priest, educator, and spiritual director, Julia Gatta provides an extensive, but easy-to-understand overview of the sacraments of baptism and Eucharist. She also extols the sacredness of time as evidenced through the cyclical liturgical year. Finally, she explores spirituality tools such as prayer couched in rule of life, spiritual direction, reconciliation, and holy retreats. My Education for Ministry group is currently exploring this book and found it a wealth of information which was eloquently explained. I would recommend this book for anyone new to any liturgical-style church or those who have been members for some time. ( ) aucune critique | ajouter une critique
* Background on spiritual practices for Episcopalians * Noted spiritual director shares wisdom from Anglican tradition With its great heritage from English mystics, the Episcopal Church has been "spiritual" since before it was trendy, and modern Episcopalians have been in the forefront of exploring practices beyond Anglican boundaries. Yet, perhaps only rarely do they grasp the implications of the theology embedded in these practices or in the liturgies of the 1979 Book of Common Prayer, which has shaped Episcopalians in this country with its emphasis on baptismal spirituality and the centrality of the Eucharist. Julia Gatta wants to change that with her new book, Life in Christ. Applying her years of experience as pastor and spiritual director combined with her study of the spiritual wisdom of the past, she explores common Christian practices and their underlying theology through an Episcopal lens. In the tradition of Esther de Waal, Martin Smith, and Martin Thornton, with particular reference to scripture, The Book of Common Prayer, and the wisdom of the Christian spiritual tradition, she illuminates methods readers may already be practicing and provides insight and guidance to ones that may be new to them.
