November 30, 2019 018: With Special Guest, Bishop Julian Dobbs: "The Bishop Unplugged"
A couple weeks ago, our Comms Director and producer of this podcast, the Rev. Marc Steele, visited the Bishop in Manassas, VA.
We figured this was a perfect opportunity to break out a microphone and turn the tables. Today Bishop Julian is in the guest's chair.
Hear his heart on several key issues facing the Anglican Communion and the Anglican Diocese of the Living Word. This is a very candid interview you don't want to miss.
And hey, this is a field interview, so there are some pops, hisses, and maybe even the distant sound of a leaf blower, but stick it through to the end, the last two questions are especially "hard-hitting." ;-)

November 22, 2019 017: Dr. Sam Pappas, the Bishop's doctor.
Remember: RATE, REVIEW, SUBSCRIBE.
Today, we speak with Bishop Julian's personal physician about health. Dr. Pappas is a Christian and a leading practitioner in the field of integrative medicine.
Listen to him speak on the role of faith in personal health, the importance of diet, and the long term management of stress.
This episode is especially recommended to clergy, whose health often deteriorates in the face of the many stressors and rigor that accompanies the vocation.

November 15, 2019 016: Rev. Matt Kennedy on the Inerrancy of Scripture
Remember: Rate, Review, Subscribe, and Share. The Rev. Matt Kennedy stops by today to discuss the inerrancy of the Bible. The Word of God is living and active... and 100% true. Yet, presently there exists a profound lack of confidence in the Bible. What gives? We look at the concept of inerrancy: what it is and what it is not, and look at why adherence to this principle is required of all ADLW clergy.

November 08, 2019 015: Sammie Gallo, Author of "Abundant Life: You Were Made For More"
LTTW is back from hiatus, with a guest host, Melanie Taylor. What is Abundant Life? "When we fail to help young people navigate how sex and relationships fit into the broader category of life, we are failing the God who created relationships to be deep, bountiful gifts for us. This resource was developed to educate students about healthy relationships, sexuality, dating, and decision-making, while also covering topics like pornography addiction, identity, social media usage, loneliness, depression, and suicide - all resting on the ultimate redemption found only in Jesus." Sammie graduated from Robert Morris University in 2017 with a background in biology and psychology and started working with Anglicans for Life (AFL) in 2017. In addition to her work with AFL, she spends time going into public schools with the Women’s Choice Network, speaking to high schoolers about healthy relationships and sex education. Sammie married her best friend, Juan Gallo, in May 2019. During her free time, you can find her leading youth ministry with her husband at their church, where he serves as the youth pastor. Sammie spends her day-to-day making sure that every person hears and believes the words: "you were made for more."

Rate, review, and subscribe on the podcast player of your choice. Released a day late due to technical difficulties (Dr. Gatiss broke the internet for us, he's that popular) we are pleased to have on the show our friend, Dr. Lee Gatiss, Director of the Church Society. Dr. Gatiss was our synod plenary speaker in 2017. Did you know that Dr. Gatiss saved Bishop Dobbs life? We owe him much on many fronts, and hope to dub him our once and future guest. Lee speaks about his ministry and his new book, "Fight Valiantly!: Contending for the Faith in the Bible and in the Church of England."

September 20, 2019 012: The Prayer of Humble Access
Rate, review, and subscribe on the podcast player of your choice. "We do not presume to come to this thy Table, O merciful Lord, trusting in our own righteousness..." Today, the Rev. Dr. Jim Salladin joins us to discuss this beautiful and uniquely Anglican prayer, recited before coming to the table of Holy Communion. We learned some key lessons: You don't tug on superman's cape. You don't spit into the wind. You don't pull the mask off that old lone ranger. You don't tell Jim Salladin that the Prayer of Humble Access is a second occurrence of confession within the liturgy. Find out why this statement of our own worthlessness points to Him whose name alone is to be glorified, our most merciful God. On a technical note, the audio is a bit rough on this one, we are aware and working to fix it.

To learn more about the Anglican Diocese of the Living Word visit www.adlw.org. "Actually, yes we must do something, and we need a God given, Spirit enabled courage, absolutely, but we mustn't be gutless." This is the charge given by the Rev. Philip de Grey-Warter as he tells us about his difficult decision to part ways with the Church of England. The Vicar speaks candidly to the events that necessitated this courageous stand. We also discuss the process of discerning Holy Orders and the authority of Scripture in the Anglican Communion. Please commit Philip, Bishop Andy Lines, and GAFCON to your prayers.
