Jesus an Episcopalian!?

Jesus was an Episcopalian, actually, not really, but Chris Yaw has thought-provoking website based on his book by the same title. Well worth checking out.

Jesus Was an Episcopalian (And you can be one, too!)

From the Rev. Chris Yaw’s “Jesus Was an Episcopalian” website

OK, MAYBE HE WASN’T…

The point of this audaciously anachronistic title is not to claim Jesus as our own (how very un-Episcopalian that would be!), but to inspire us to see how Jesus is found in the many and varied expressions of faith that two thousand years of Christendom has birthed.

One such expression is the Anglican tradition in America, better known as The Episcopal Church. We are known more for substance than self-promotion – evenhandedness than extremism. Too often we are not easily noticed, found, or understood, which is why I wrote this provocative sounding book and companion website.

Today is an exciting time to be an Episcopalian. We have a renewed commitment to feeding the hungry and clothing the naked – standing up for equal rights and radical hospitality – worshiping in the beauty of holiness and making disciples who take Christ into the world.
