The Worst Anglican

Connections to consider:

Ignorance leads to disbelief. Or, a lack of knowing leads to a lack of living.

We can only understand how God reveals Himself in the present by understanding how he reveals Himself in the past. This informs what we pray for and how to recognize His peace when He sends it.

Connections to consider:

"Gospel engine” - our repentance and belief resulting in God’s peace and love. It’s a self-replicating engine.

Connections to consider:

The alignment of our will with God’s will with an emphasis on intimacy, expressed in the form of incarnation, God’s word becoming flesh through us.

What is Lectionary plus? It’s a minimalistic, no-frills weekly podcast consisting of the reading of the collect and the passages for the following Sunday, and a few suggested connections or threads running through the collect and passages for your consideration. 

If you want to listen to just the collect and passages and skip the rest, feel free. Above all I want this to be useful. I’m sure the format will change over time while maintaining the goal of keeping it simple.

Episodes will be released every Monday so you have a chance to listen through the collect and the scripture at least once before Sunday. Most of the time the scripture will come from the English Standard Version.

The podcast will be available on all major platforms which takes about a week from the initial launch, which is in this case December 31st, 2020. I aim to have the first episode posted Monday, Jan 4th. By the 11th it will be listed in most major directories.

Lectionary plus is read and produced by me, Corby Stephens. I’m a voicover artist and actor, a former pastor, and full-time technology nerd, who hopes that this is beneficial to you and your congregation. You can find out more about what I do at blog.corbystephens.com, and that will be the only name drop you will hear. 

Thanks for listening.
