For The Rest Of Us with the Reverend Canon Megan Castellan

Megan Explains: Manual Acts… for the rest of us!


Listen Later

This episode, Canon Megan and Adam get into the movement of worship—literally. From crossing yourself to bowing to sharing the peace, they explore all the little physical gestures you see (and maybe wonder about) during Episcopal services.

They break down where these traditions come from, what they mean, and why they matter—not as rigid rules, but as opportunities for personal expression, reverence, and connection to God.

Whether you’re someone who’s never made the sign of the cross or you’ve been doing it since you were in the nursery, this is a great reminder that our bodies can be part of our prayer—and that how we worship is just as personal as why.
