I Tried to be Chill but You’re So Hot that I Melted: General Convention Day 3

Posted by Steve Published in TEC/General Convention

The Presiding Bishop’s Opening Comments I quote from KJS’ opening comments to the 76th General Convention: The overarching connection in all of these crises has to do with the great Western heresy – that we can be saved as individuals, that any of use alone can be in right relationship with God. It’s caricatured in [...]

Without wanting to be a smart-aleck, I find it more than ironic we’ll be meeting just across the street from Disneyland (hence the logo to the left). Having never been a [...]
