June 06, 2025 S12.E10 The Last Things
After four years and over a hundred episodes, we bring Appalachian Anglican to a close with one final conversation—both a retrospective and a bridge to what lies ahead. Bishop Darryl Fitzwater, Dcn Adam, Josh, and Aidan reflect on the importance of doctrinal fidelity, the dangers of theological innovation, and the enduring role of Scripture and tradition in shaping the Church's future. The conversation emphasizes that the Church is a steward, not a master, of doctrine and how Anglicans can live faithfully in an age of rapid change and ecclesial fragmentation.
Though this is the final chapter of Appalachian Anglican, the conversation continues through a new endeavor: The American Catholic, launching in Summer 2025. Stay tuned for a fresh voice rooted in the same commitment to theological sanity, liturgical richness, and the building of Catholic communities across North America.

May 23, 2025 S12.E9 How to deal with being a sinner
Bp Darryl, Dcn Adam, Josh, and Aidan address the proverbial problem of being a sinner and how to manage it. The Book of Common Prayer speaks to the issue, as the voice of clarity in a culture saturated with "self-affirming" ideas and language. Tune in as the group explores the liturgy's orienting nature of how to deal with being a sinner.

About The American Catholic

From the publisher's feed

The American Catholic, successor to the Appalachian Anglican, exists to aid in creating and cultivating Catholic communities within the Anglican Tradition across North America and beyond. We invite you to gather, partner, and participate in the proclamation of that Faith that has been handed down through the millennia in the Church. The preservation of this living flame is that life-giving Faith of Christ's One, Holy, Catholic, and Apostolic Church which has been believed "everywhere, always, and by all."
