Do Episcopalians have a love-hate relationship with evangelism? Everyone is welcome into an Episcopal church, but how do they get there? Is there an Episcopal, or even an Anglican, way to be an evangelist?
According to the Rev. Canon Stephanie Spellers, you bet.
Today we'll pop in on a conversation with Stephanie, who serves as Canon to Presiding Bishop Michael B. Curry. We talk about how she came to the Episcopal Church, and how she came to have the heart she does for wanderers and seekers, and how discovering Jesus in every step of every person's spiritual journey is part and parcel of the Anglican way.
Stephanie spearheads efforts around evangelism, racial reconciliation, and creation care for the whole Episcopal Church. Her newest books are The Church Cracked Open: Disruption, Decline and New Hope for Beloved Community and an updated 15th anniversary edition Radical Welcome: Embracing God, The Other and the Spirit of Transformation. She has served as Chaplain to the Episcopal House of Bishops, taught mission and evangelism at General Theological Seminary, and served as a canon in the Diocese of Long Island.
Today we're going to drop the E Word, then pick it up and run with it. We hope you enjoy the conversation.
