Sailing the Last Voyage with Newton and Pascal
The whole concept of using the Morning Prayer service from the Book of Common Prayer (as suggested by the Reformed Catholic blog) is an intriguing one. A few comments are in order: The whole traditional Anglican liturgy is geared towards public celebration, as opposed to the "private" nature of many late Middle Ages Masses. So …

Just up the road from here, an Episcopal "priest" (I hate that term for Anglican ministers) tell us us about why It's Not about Sex: I believe the archbishop's essay underscores what really is going on within the Anglican Communion and beyond. Debate about sexuality, or more precisely, homosexuality, is not really the issue; it …
Earlier this year, in the post Create Your Own Anglican Communion Network I said the following: Note that your computer can pick up more than your own router. This works both ways, and illustrates our next point: you need to set up your wireless network with whatever security you can manage, otherwise a TEC revisionist …
One of the more popular features of this site is the Anglican Calendar Script, which announces the current liturgical event (Sunday, saint's day, etc.) according to the traditional Anglican liturgical scheme.

I became very discouraged with my church. I recently joined an Anglican Church in …
While maintaining this blog (along with everything else,) I've had the chance lately to visit (and sometimes comment on) Titusonenine, the blog of the Canon Theologian of the Diocese of South Carolina, Kendall Harmon. This is a major Anglican blog, some would say the best. As with many things on the Web, encountering this has …
While making this blog a stench in the nostrils of many at TitusOneNine, I'm pleased to announce a new blog worth looking at: Sanctifusion. With the things that divide Christians into this "tradition" and that, it's good to see something that blurs some of our boundaries. Sanctifusion does that. Take a look.
Table of Contents and Overview for At the Inlet | Information and ordering instructions for all of our fiction Note: this part of At the Inlet is dedicated to the memory of Elizabeth C.
