A comprehensive, easy-to-understand primer to the Episcopal faith for new members, inquirers, and Church members who are unfamiliar with its history, beliefs, and practices.
Written in accessible language and in a conversational tone, this introduction to The Episcopal Church is the ideal resource for adult parish study, newcomers, and other interested individuals. From an Episcopal perspective, the author examines the Church’s history, worship, beliefs, spiritual life, organizational structure, mission and outreach, and the way followers interpret and understand the Bible. Study questions accompany each chapter.
"Welcome to The Episcopal Church makes clear that the worship of God is the most important thing that can be said about us, and that worship is the source for everything else in our life together--our commitment to justice for all people, our mission to those who do not yet know Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, and how we should live out our lives in this very complex world.”―from the Foreword, The Most Rev. Frank T. Griswold III, Presiding Bishop and Primate
