Repentance as Renewal

Sermons from Rev. Jennifer Oldstone-Moore at St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church in Greencastle, IN. One definition of liturgy is “the work of the people”, and it reminds us that worship is something a whole congregation takes up together. We stand, we kneel, we sit; we sing, we speak, we listen. The liturgy involves us all. And the liturgy involves all of ourselves.
