Here is a letter from St. Justin Martyr in 155 A.D. describing the weekly Christian liturgy of the Early Church. Anyone familiar with the service from our Book of Common Prayer and the Catholic Mass, and therefore the Eucharist, will immediately recognize that this is the way we worship. It is the way of the early Christians and the way that Jesus Christ intends His Church to worship. Enjoy the root of our liturgical life!
Just what is an Anglican? What does it mean to be a Christian? Is Christianity important? This Blog is part of the teaching ministry of St. John's Episcopal Church, Fort Worth, Texas. Here we look in depth at Anglicanism in her historic form, her beliefs, worship, sacramental life and church structures. We look in depth at Sacred Scripture, and the relationship between science and theology. We Blog about faith seeking understanding.
